5.6 in Anza (http://quake.wr.usgs.gov/recenteqs/)
How are the inlanders? I figure if we felt it here in West LA, it might have been something more. Hell, they mentioned it on the national news right after it happened!

Too far south for me to have felt...plus I was sleeping.

I think we're becoming too jaded to earthquakes. "Oh, I guess its an earthquake. Oh well. Wanna go get some breakfast?"
We've been watching the Channel 7 news (haven't gone to breakfast yet). It's funny watching them try to come up with *something*. So far all they have is their cheesy "map" and a shot of their seismograph.
Update: Channel 7 was interviewing someone on the phone and asked, "So, what did it feel like?"
My answer would have been, "Oh, I don't know. It felt like an earthquake. You know - the ground moves!"

We felt it pretty good here in Laguna Niguel, enough to wake us up after only 4 hours of sleep. It's been a long while since I've felt one. Honestly, I don't recall feeling any sort of earthquake since Northridge.

There was a 7.0 quake 80 miles off the coast of NorCal at nearly 8:00 PM- any of our NorCal posters feel it? There are tsunami warnings extended up to Vancouver Island, BC.

Tsunami waarning has been called off. Thank God! It was supposed to hit San Pedro at 10.

The earthquake was 90 miles west of Crescent City. We had the Tsunami emergency warning here in the SF Bay Area a little while ago. The first one I ever recall seeing. Here's a link to an article:

I was so hoping for an enormous tsunami covering the entire west coast up to vancouver so that I wouldn't have to go to work tomorrow. I am such a horrible person.

No earthquake tremors here in the valley.

I felt the Anza one, it rocked us more (we are real close to DL) than my Mom up in Yorba Linda...we were on the phone when it hit and compared notes.
The Northern one..not at all of course, but we were part of the Orange County warning, since we live a few blocks away from the river bed. I guess the prevailing thought around here is, if it hits the coast, the water would back up inland through the Santa Ana River beds. Who knows...I just have a paranoid brother-in-law who got put on standby duty for Juvi Hall in case there was one....so he made a lot of phone calls last night to warn everyone in the family. I didn't really do anything but make phone calls to round up the girls to get our nails done this morning...so I guess I wasn't too concerned.
