Just felt a little quake at 3PM. Anyone else feel it? Wasn't that long but gave my computer monitors quite a shake. Even after all this time being here those things still freak me out.

I felt a little somethin' on the north side but haven't checked the USGS yet-- usually takes a half hour or so for the stats to appear. From my house it didn't feel like more than ~3.5

It was a 4.6

Huh, that's odd. The USGS site changed the data on that little quake. Lowered the intensity and slightly changed the location. I have not seen them do that before.

I was in San Jose CA during the Loma Prieta quake. The one that knocked down the Bay Bridge. They can be pretty scary.

I used to have that site on my computer - what is it again? And please, don't tell me to google it.

We were on our balcony and it shook our dark and diets. Please don't think that we are alcoholics for drinking at 3, we just had a great morning of snorkeling. ( We actually had a couple of Mojitos before the quake!)

i think the islands are the one place where you don't have to apologize for drinking during the day...it's 5 o clock somewhere, right? 😉
