7th aftershock. I thought my shelves were going to come down on this one. My neighbors just moved from Texas. I bet they're out of their minds with fear right now. :o

holy crap I had no idea there could be so many aftershocks.
Ya i felt it. I live in Los Angeles and it felt like a wierd swaying. it was kinda like if you were dizzy. At first I thought it was just me, then my boyfriend was like "It's an Earthquake!" It lasted long. :shock:

So apparently it was a deep quake which fortunately greatly reduces the damage it can cause, but unfortunately it appears to be setting off a series of quakes in other faults. A series of 3s and 4s have hit the surrounding Baja area and a 5.1 has just hit the desert area a little East of the Oceanside/San Diego area.
[QUOTE="Duckman5"][QUOTE="Doolz2024"]So is there any serious damage or anything?Pirate700
Apparently not. Everything seems to be in tact although some reports of people trapped in elevators are arising. Damn that's gotta be scary. Yeah I would be going ape **** if that happened to me.

I always wonder what tourists think since many people aren't used to earthquakes. I mean yes we are used to them since we live in SoCal but it's still a bit nerve racking when it's kinda big.

I felt dizzy too. :P That was the wierdest feeling earthquake I've ever felt. It was like a gentle rocking but I felt like I was uneasy or dizzy. Ugh I can't image the people living closer to the action.
I've been in a few but I don't remember any of them (cause I was like my birth-3 years old). Question though, what happens when you drive during an earthquake? Like do you have to stop? Or can you drive continuously?

I believe you are encouraged to pull over until the shaking stops if you are in a clear area.

Luckily we only have very few earthquakes here in Germany. But i remember waking up one morning to a long low rumbling sound, i thought it was a rolling thunder or an airplane, only later i found out it was a weak earthquake...

8th aftershock. Never experienced anything like this. Hell the world may end today at this rate.

I dunno. I suppose there's the chance this could string into something but back in the '80s we had a decent quake and the aftershocks lasted for weeks and I started to wonder when it would all stop but of course eventually they did. We'll see I suppose. The 5.1 is the first upscale quake from the smaller 3s and 4s so hopefully nothing will get bigger than that.
