Quake - 6.0 NoCal Nobiggie
 
There was a 6.0 off the coast of Northern Cali today at 3:20pm est

The USGS notified me via email at: 3:49pm

CNN Tweeted me about it at: 3:52pm

Quakeinfo tweeted at: 3:35pm

The first to feel and tweet was Caksf at: 3:25pm

God I love the Information Age.

Alex 02-04-2010 02:03 PM

Caksf felt the quake 55 minutes before it happened? Twitter is pretty cool.

Moonliner 02-04-2010 02:05 PM

No. Five min after. Or at least that's when the tweet was.

Ghoulish Delight 02-04-2010 02:13 PM

3:25 isn't 55 minutes before 3:20. It's 5 minutes after.

6.0 isn't small.

Compared to some it is.

A 6.0 is not small, by any definition. Sorry, East Coaster. :p

Alex 02-04-2010 03:44 PM

Did anybody say small? He said Nobiggie. And 6.0s are frequently "Nobiggie" in the sense that they don't matter much.

And I swear when I posted the OP said the first tweet was at 2:25. But it may be tied into my calendrical retardation.

Gee, did not feel a thing but friends up in Humboldt sure did!

Strangler Lewis 02-04-2010 04:22 PM

Water fall from sky.

Ants invade.

No quake.
