7.2 Earthquake in Baja California, Mexico
- ddemchuk 17y agoI'm down in San Diego and felt this pretty well, went on for about 30 seconds or so. My friend said he felt it all the way up in Los Angeles, so this was a good little quake
- alanthonyc 17y agoI'm in LA and felt it. It was the longest quake I've ever been in, really wavy and rolling.

- chacha102 17y agoIn San Diego. Felt it. Our Garage shook and we thought it was out Garage Door for a second.
- Mz 17y agoReminds me of the only large quake I was in: about a 7.1 in Southern Cali. For weeks beforehand, the floating mirror in our bedroom set periodically rattled strangely. I was like "WTF? Is that our neighbor's toddler jumping on the master bed or something???" It was bizarre and baffling. After the quake, when the rattly mirror finally made sense, I joked I was going to go visit relatives on the East Coast for the duration if the mirror ever did that again.

- TomOfTTB 17y agoI don't think people watching the news are fully grasping the seismic event this set off. If you look at Mexicali (a city on the border) as a way to judge the location of all the quakes here's the list of Earthquakes triggered by the original quake (now upgraded to 7.2) 7.2 (3:40pm) - Guadalupe Victoria, BC, Mexico(31.6 miles from MexiCali) 4.5 (4:09pm) - Jacumba Hot Springs, CA (49 miles from MexiCali) 5.1 (4:15pm) - Imperial, CA (17.2 miles from MexiCali) 3.8 (4:19pm) - Jacumba Hot Springs, CA (49 miles from MexiCali) 3.6 (4:22pm) - Julian, CA (98 miles from MexiCali) 5.4 (4:25pm)- Guadalupe Victoria, BC, Mexico(31.6 miles from MexiCali) 4.3 (4:34pm) - Calexico (10 miles from MexiCali) 4.7 (4:37pm) - MexiCali (0 miles from MexiCali) 3.5 (4:46pm) - Seeley, CA (21 miles from MexiCali) 3.4 (4:48pm) - Holtville, CA (18 miles from MexiCali) 3.6 (4:53pm) - Seeley, CA (21 miles from MexiCali) 3.1 (4:54pm) - Lake Henshaw, CA (112 miles from MexiCali) 3.9 (4:57pm) - Seeley, CA (21 miles from MexiCali) 3.0 (5:01pm) - Borrego Springs, CA (81 miles from MexiCali) 3.1 (5:02pm) - Salton City, CA (72.5 miles from MexiCali) 3.4 (5:04pm) - Ocotillo, CA (38 miles from MexiCali) 5.1 (5:07pm) - Guadalupe Victoria, BC, Mexico(31.6 miles from MexiCali) 4.3 (5:12pm) - Seeley, CA (21 miles from MexiCali) 3.3 (5:29pm) - Bombay Beach, CA (60 miles from MexiCali) 3.5 (5:30pm) - Seeley, CA (21 miles from MexiCali) 3.5 (5:31pm) - Guadalupe Victoria, BC, Mexico(31.6 miles from MexiCali) * I have to meet friends for dinner so I can't keep updating this comment but I think you get the point.
