Wife felt it here in Newhall, I was taking out the trash and didn't feel it.

Quick jolt here. No rolling this time. No swaying lamps and nothing fell. Even the dog was bored by it. Might have been a 5 at ground zero. Many times they downgrade these. I'd give it a 3.5 at my house which is about 60 west of epicenter.

Felt it here near Pasadena. Not much movement- just enough to make a few hanging things sway for a few seconds.

[Sonic dB]

felt it here in Redondo, only for a couple of seconds though

[TerryH]

Well, they split the difference. Down to 4.5 magnitude now.

I catch an earthquake, then you can come visit during tornado season.
