Didn't feel it, but I do remember waking up around that time.

Whoops, just had one here in SF. Mere moments ago. Not sure how big it was, but I'm on bedrock and we were shaking!

Yup, here it is!

A moderate earthquake occurred at 8:04:54 PM (PDT) on Tuesday, October 30, 2007.
The magnitude 5.6 event occurred 8 km (5 miles) NNE of Alum Rock, CA.
The hypocentral depth is 9 km ( 6 miles).

Very good roll here in Dublin. I'd say it was the strongest I've felt since we moved here in 1998.

A good 5/6 seconds of rolling and then I'm not sure how much of what followed was more of it or just our building swaying. Our first roller, too. All of the others I've felt have been a couple big jerks.

Fun stuff. More please.

5.6 is decent.

My wife felt it up here in P-town. I was stumbling around with the garbage cans in the dark, so it slipped by. The dog felt it, I'd say. He was unusually happy to follow me inside, particularly since we skipped our evening walk.

Felt it here. Thought that a car hit the side of my building. It jolted my bed forward twice.

We've been having some minor tremblies up here this past month- the last ones were in 2001, when we had a series of 2.5 to 4.5's over a period of six months. Not a big deal to you seasoned Californians, but we didn't know we were earthquake prone and now the scientists have discovered some very old fault lines, one of which literally runs under our house.:rolleyes: They tend to be very shallow, which the seismologists find concerning. (I don't know why, but that's what it said in the paper).

Keep safe and make sure you have your emergency kits ready- a 5.6 is a bit large to ignore!

I didn't feel the earthquake, but I'm suddenly reminded of my job......
