Magnitude 6.6 Earthquake In Southern California


If you want to know what a 6.6 earthquake feels like, I'm in Las Vegas where I felt the entire house shake back and forth for over 30 seconds.

The earthquake's epicenter was in Ridgecrest, California, over 200 miles away.

Earthquake in L.A. - 3.9 magnitude

A minor earthquake has rattled Southern California, shaking buildings in downtown Los Angeles.

The US Geological Survey says the 3.9 magnitude quake struck at 8:24 a.m. Sunday and was centered about 5 miles east-southeast of Santa Clarita, Calif.

Shaking was felt across the Santa Clarita Valley, in downtown Los Angeles and in West Hollywood.

I am, of course in L.A. for the day and lucky me - we have an earthquake. No damage has been reported though. More wine!
