Showing as a 6.0 now on USGS! Felt like more of a wave type than a side-to-side.

That was because of the extra weight of water Pelosi is getting for her district.

/Sarcasm OFF

Woke up in Gold River 15 miles east of Sacramento, hearing a standing lamp give a slight rattle. Pretty sensitive earthquake detector! Cats were up and wondering what happened ...

Woke us up, violent shaking. The ceiling light flickered when I tried to turn it on, will have to check that out. That was a strong one. Reported it to USGS, they show it as a 6.0 so far.

Very much felt in Santa Rosa. Woke everyone in the household up.

No matter how many I live through....they always scare me.

Yes, an eerie feeling indeed. You can hear them before you feel them usually. Brings back memories of the ‘89 7.1’er. Guess I won’t be needing my coffee this morning!

Shook our apt. in Santa Rosa for half a minute. Sort of scary not knowing when it was going to stop or if it’s getting worse. Not bad enough to set off car alarms here. No services interrupted. We now resume our normal programming...

My niece felt it in Sacramento, don’t know what area. We were texting at the time. Be safe.
