Seems that this area is becoming a hot spot for quakes. Time to replinish you supplies folks.
Cheap earthquake we need stronger ones
Certainly wasn't a roller! Noise and a jolt like an explosion! Thought it was just Camp P.
felt it in north county, escondido, as well.
Still awake and also concern of all the small earthquakes we been having. I guess that tells us to be prepared at all times.
I thought it was CP also. By the time I realized it was an earthquake and got up to get the kids and pets it was over. Now Im all wired and awake. Thankful tho
God is coming im thankful im saved thatnk you jesus becausr if i leave the earth noww i know where i would go amen
Felt it in Lakeside.
In Escondido. I thought someone was running up the steps in my apartments. Also followed by what seemed to explosions. Weird!
Yep, I sat for a while trying to figure out if it was CP or a quake. Then it was over. Hubby and fur-kids slept through it. Thanks for the info Village News.
Well we all still have our power enjoy it while it last!!! I'm worried about the next blackout.
The aftershock at 12:38 was a noisy little sucker too.
I thought it was camp pen...
Another smaller one at 12:45 am 2.9 They were both weird. Didn't shake but they were both LOUD rumblings here in Bonsall.
We felt 2 @ The Well Resort.
There was a second one at 12:40am that had a kick to it too! The news didnt report that one.
I live in Oceanside, and our windows usually rattle easily from the wind. Surprised i didn't hear it, or feel it.
Valley Center at the top of the ridge overlooking Pauma Valley; felt the first, wondered if it was a truck laboring up the hill, but the whomp at the end confirmed it as the 3.4. Slept through the 2.9 that followed 80 minutes later. Glad to have nature relieving its tensions with the 5 or so small ones we've had lately. Don't want to have to clean up after a bigger one!
Weak quake. I wasn't impressed.
Did not feel it but my brother did he said it was cool!
We live in Escondido Hills. Heard the noise and thought wow that sounds like an earthquake but we never felt in movement.
A vase fell off my sheelf and broke it was scary.
Yeah Im ok, I just need to shake it off!
All the little 3 pointers up and down the coast should be a warning to all, physically & spiritually.
Mistook it for the marine heli's that constantly fly by! @#$#%
Always rockin in Fallbrook from the CP shelling, so I too thought it was maybe that, but it was a little different. I agree with Camello...these little ones are a tease...c'mon, bring it! And for being saved by Jesus and feeling spiritual about these events...to each his own, but I can assure you that god won't save your china cabinet, so secure it to the wall.
I felt the little tremor in Escondido, right off of Centre City. There was two, not just the one at 11:11 - I marked the time. There was one around 12:40 as well, though a lot, lot lighter than the previous one. Wasn't as strong as the one in San Diego last Easter, but it was surprising nonetheless.
Do you guys know about the USGS earthquake map? If I'm up and I feel a strong one, I check this website and can tell within 1-2 mins where and how strong the quake was. http://earthquake.usgs.gov/earthquakes/recenteqscanv/
It was a loud quake felt like it was in my living room. In Fallbrook we had a lot of bombs the day n night before along with a lot of helicopter activity. Did that make the earth shake back. ????
Yep, We felt it to about 10 minutes after.We live in Anza, CA 92539 area. It felt like a tremor.
We woke up, heard the rumble, the house and windows were shaking. We usually sleep through the small ones but this one felt stronger |
