Some pretty good shaking going on this afternoon here in sunny Southern California.

A 6.9 in Baja California, Mexico was felt as far as Arizona, and it was the strongest earthquake I have ever felt. I'm in San Diego, and we had a few things fall over and off.

And it's been shaking from, I presume, related quakes spread across Southern CA during the past hour.

 

Pretty exciting!

Glad it didn't happen near me. I just got a new plasma TV that's really wobbly

I'd be pretty scared in a 6.9 magnitude earthquake.

Moosetek, are you sure you live in San Diego?  I've never heard of a Californian city named "Baja", just the Mexican peninsula of Baja California.

Yes, I'm sure I live in San Diego.

And no, there is no city named Baja, like you say.

2010 has been the year of earthquakes so far! Pretty crazy!

Of course, all the doomsday/2012 people are saying that this is the beginning of the end, but there is a possilbe explanation. This decade hasn't seen much earthquake activity, and the ones that have occured have been really nasty. All that built up energy in the tectonic plates has to go somewhere eventually.

Really amazing.

The quakes are bouncing between the El Centro, CA area and the northern Baja.

There have been nearly 80 quakes ranging from 2.5-5.1 in the past 3.5 hours. I have felt several of them.

I have never seen so many in such a short time. 157 2.5 or greater quakes in ~8 hours, in the same general locality.

Since the 7.2 hit, there have been roughly 20 quakes per hour as a direct result. And San Francisco is right on top of the plate boundary that is causing all this. Are they in line for the next 'Big One'?

Byebye Cali, was nice knowing ya. Say hi to Hawaii when you become neighbors

 

Seriously though, there has been some crazy tectonic activity here in the last few months. I hope this isn't leading up to something even more catastrophic.

As I've mentioned before I'm much more worried about the Yellowstone Supervolcano going off than I am about "global warming"...

Moosetek, are you sure you live in San Diego?  I've never heard of a Californian city named "Baja", just the Mexican peninsula of Baja California.

The Earthquake was in Baja California, Mexico - near Mexicali.  Re-reading the entire post by Moosetek, I do not think he called Baja California a city.  It is a state much like California, USA is a state, with Cities within its borders.

Since 5 PM - Pacific Time:

Moosetek, where did you get the list?  My in-laws live in Brawley (about 15 miles from El Centro).  We are following it closely.

Hope everyone's fine there. It has been a series of quakes for the past months.

Dr Guy, he edited his post after I called him on it, he originally had the epicenter being listed as "Baja, CA".

Dr Guy, there is an address in my second post.

That list has now grown to 340.

 

(and I did correct my OP. I had originally said Baja, CA)

I missed that (not hyperlinked).  But I found one myself as well - http://quake.usgs.gov/recenteqs/Quakes/quakes0.htm

Sorry for missing it.  Strange thing is the URLs look almost the same (same root at least).

The one I gave is for earthquakes of mag 2.5 or greater, and yours is for all earthquakes.

Hey Teseer, I was just checking, as no-one who lives in SoCal should be believing that Baja is a city inside California's borders.

And Moosetek, I have but this to say: Orange County>San Diego.

Although, Orange County is probably more likely to be flattened by a big earthquake.

I would take that back if I were you.

It was just a funny line. 'Yes, I'm sure of where I live'

Yes, I saw the 0.4 on the page I looked at.  I will use yours as 2.5 seems to be the cutoff for feeling it.  Thanks again.

You're welcome.

In the past few hours they seem to be tapering off a little in frequency.

There are still between 10 and 20 2.5+ magnitude quakes per hour in that area, the largest being a 4.6 a few hours ago.

I rather fear for San Francisco in the near future. It sits right on top of that plate boundary.

I guess it's a 50/50 chance whether all this activity in SoCal/Baja is either relieving the stress further north, or increasing it. But I sure would not want to be living in the Bay Area right now.
