Opposite of “Struction?”

Bad spiller!
Actually, it is the faults that cross the San Andreas at the Trans Verse mountains that will do the big job on LA. when they cut loose.
I remember what that area near west lombard... that was built on sand looked like after the Loma Pieta Quake.,,and watched it burn from up top of corte madera hill up across the bay!
the sounds really are like little else!!
Yep, that was gross!
we had no electricty in Corte Madera so I sat in my darkened car listening to the radio and watching the glow far off in the distance!
looks like we have been having swarms of small ones throughout the day. I did not feel those, the first one was around 8 am in the morning. The stronger one that I did feel was the 3.8 (they downgraded). Right now it is 7:34 pm and so far no more tremors. I pray that it stays that way.
let’s hope for a quiet night for you guys.
My son and I were just leaving the 2015 World Golf Championships-Cadillac Match Play at Harding Park in San Francisco. Didn’t feel a thing. ,OT, but it was a fantastic two days watching Rory McIlroy take home $1.6 million of the $9.25 million purse. That’s the fourth biggest purse in PGA tourneys in all of 2015 — and just slightly behind the Masters.
Nothing he in S. MS....

You should be able to easily see the new bay bridge tumble into the mud when the next major quake hits.
.
It may not take a MAJOR...quake considering the superlative design workmanship and Red Chinese Materials....that went into that buiding bridge
I was out on the highway coming back from a weekend at La Quinta.

That’s one way to beat the cold!
That quake was weird. I found out yesterday that it had knocked the display card out on my Cad computer. I turned it on and all I got was a blinking LED.
.
That is weird. Those cards are in there pretty tight; you almost never find a loose one in a machine that hasn’t hit the floor. Maybe yours was never properly seated, and this shaker was all it took to pop it out.
Beat the cold was right; it topped out at about 105 on Friday afternoon. Made the trip to The Living Desert seem a bit nutz, but the humidity’s low, there was a good breeze, and plenty of shade, so it actually wasn’t bad. We spent a lot of time with the kids in the pool.
Nights were marvelous, though. Try sitting out under an open sky at midnight in shirtsleeves when it’s still about 72 degrees, and there’s a balmy puff of a breeze... makes you just want to pull out a chaise lounge and sleep outside.
Saturday we drove out Hwy74 to “Smiler’s Point,” which is right about mile post 88. You can still see where he just went sailing right out there. Too bad there’s not any decent place to pull off near there; I’d have liked to shoot some pictures, and maybe scramble down the hill to where he kicked the bucket.

105 is warm, not hot.
Back in the ‘50s when I was growing up, 105 was a typical day in Walnut Creek, from may to september.
Rarely gets that warm at all anymore.
