Didn't feel anything, but I'm in the east SF Bay Area. Sacramentans would likely have felt it.

I Feel The Earth Move :
(Carole King)

I feel the earth move under my feet
I feel the sky tumbling down, tumbling down
I feel my heart start to trembling
Whenever you’re around

Ooh, baby, when I see your face
Mellow as the month of May
Oh, darling, I can’t stand it
When you look at me that way

I feel the earth move under my feet
I feel the sky tumbling down, tumbling down
I feel my heart start to trembling
Whenever you’re around

Oh, darling, when you’re near me
And you tenderly call my name
I know that my emotions
Are something I just can’t tame
I’ve just got to have you, baby

I feel the earth move under my feet
I feel the sky tumbling down, tumbling down
I feel the earth move under my feet
I feel the sky tumbling down
I just lose control
Down to my very soul
I get a hot and cold all over
I feel the earth move under my feet
I feel the sky tumbling down,
Tumbling down, tumbling down

My adopted Walker Hound pounced on the bed at full speed and then wrapped herself around my head and licked my nose profusely, to encourage me to get up and feed her this morning.

Dunno about nobody -I look at keywords. However it has been some time since I started a new thread, and I worried more about getting it up than a preferred title.

Surprised you felt a 3.3 at all.

There are literally dozens of those each day in CA.

I lived in Silicon Valley for many years and can attest to the same, however they are quite a bit more rare up here and this is the second one within a few years so the frequency is what I actually find more curious.

“Just had a sudden sharp quake here”

(please hear my friendly tone!)
Knowing where “here” is really helps.
I’ve probably made the same “faux paus” myself
(did I spell that right?).

I did experience a 4.5 at UCLA (epicenter was maybe 20 miles
east of UCLA).
It was an strange experience to see the large glass windows of the
Molecular/Biology building in UCLA’s South Campus wiggle a bit like
Jello during the short quake. (I admit, I was at the open-air vending
machines just north of the Biology building when I saw this!).

Now I’m in Mid-Missouri and more concerned about the New Madrid,
not the San Andreas fault (or the interlocked networks of each system).
