Just felt a bump like someone hit my chair. Then the wife came out of a downstairs room and asked if I felt something.

Nothing on USGS yet.

2.8 off the coast at 4:35....that'd be hard to feel, but who knows.

Aren’t earthquakes in LA common? If it’s not at least the magnitude of the Northridge quake, it’s not news.

Some people never outgrow potty humor, do they?

A 2.8 certainly isn’t news. Even A-cup chicks cause bigger EQs than that.

Unless it is 2012 movie sized EQ, nothing will save this state.

Bummer.

The mods moved this from Breaking News.

Downgraded it to Chat.

(Nothing to see here, folks. Move along.)

You were saying ...

No wonder...it was just a few miles away.

I remember when Mt. St. Helens was rumbling and before it went off, I could be sitting down in a chair and I could feel some of the 2s and 3s from there ... If you were standing up and/or moving around you would miss it.

It was about 50 miles away from me in Portland.

There was another time that there was an earthquake in the Seattle area (or thereabouts) and in Portland, I was in a mult-story building and I was sitting down at the time (there was a cat there, too, believe it or not) and it jumped up and got scared, and then I saw the ight fixture swaying back and forth. I could almost feel the building swaying slightly, too ... a gentle kind of rocking ... :-)
