PSM,

5.8 @ 18:42 UTC for greater LA area!! Pretty big shake.

Lots of activity offshore of Oregon about ten, or so, days ago.

Best of luck Amigo!!!

Looks like a 5.8, according to the USGS site.

I've been through worse. ;) My dog didn't even look up until the last couple of seconds.

I'll take two digit shakers to triple digit temps. :D

Actually, it's in storage pretty close to the epicenter. The guy next to us has a truck camper that's perched on a pretty rickety looking rack. I figure the storage lot folks would call me if it got crunched.

Give me 3 digit temps any day. I was hoping for a week or so of 120+ this summer. (It helps keep the 'riff raff' out of the area.) Except for those 3 digit temps and illegals all over the place, it isn't so bad here - no quakes, tornadoes, floods (okay... every once in a while we have a series of '100 year floods'), hurricanes, or huge forest fires (well, at least where the 3 digit temps dwell)! Even our "tree-hugging liberals" make more sense than the usual variety.
