I felt it too. The whole house creaked and the chandier made noise. There was actually two of them that felt about the same.

I'd take earthquakes over tornadoes and Hurricanes any day :beer:

I said so would I to your comment about you would take a earthquake over a hurricane. meaning I would rather have the ground shake then my roof blow off.

I just looked it up. 2.5, WNW of Lake Elsinore with a few aftershocks in the 1's... that I didn't feel.

I know. The other guy was from Florida too though so I just said that.

I have been through some hurricanes in texas and it's scary, but tornadoes scare the crap outta me. They can just rip down a whole house in a second!

Another 4.7 today.

i never feel any of them, though a customer at work was like running out the door, she said everything i was moving... i was on a ladder at the time, i beg to differ

 

[Klay]

I felt both of them although yesterday's lasted for like a a fraction of a sec it seems. Today's woke me up but it still wasn't that bad overall. I haven't felt one for quite a while before this, I wonder if there will be a bigger one coming soon?

 

[MachME]

you'll take a earth quake over a tornado anyday? lmao.

 

[grimreefer]

I flew to Houston from San Diego early this morning so I missed the 4.5

 

[grimreefer]

Ha! Got back from Houston today and I just felt another couple in the apartment. Is this normal for socal or is it more active now? (I'm usually on a ship when I'm out here so I never feel 'em.)
