The house was a ‘rockin big time here in Hollywood. Still feeling some little aftershocks... Dogs in the apartment complex going ape——...

Biggest jolt I’ve felt since the 2001 Nisqually Quake in Olympia.

Biggest jolt I’ve felt since the 2001 Nisqually Quake in Olympia.

I remember that one well. I was adjusting my stereo receiver when the quake first hit and thought "dang, the bass must be on 10; it's shaking the entire house!" So I turned the bass all the way down. ...and the shaking got more intense. (Finally figured out what as happening). Went outside and watched the trees sway.

Definitely in the top three biggest quakes I've ever felt, along with the '71 and '94 L.A. quakes.

It sure felt like much stronger than 5.8. We've had aftershocks of that magnitude following earlier quakes than were hardly noticed.
