Tell me more...I missed something.

It looks like there was another 4.9 just 5 minutes afterward. I didn't feel anything here in San Diego.

I am thinking the Puget Sound will get the next major earthquake, and then along Chile way down south.
I am getting earthquakes up here in Alaska but we hardly notice anything less than 5.0.

It was probably just set off by the rush of feet headed to the border for the upcoming amnesty.

Ditto. I'm out by I-5/Genessee. Felt nothing. I was surprised to hear it mentioned on KOGO and see the 5.9 on the earthquake map. It was located 106 miles east of Tijuana, 22 miles south of the border near Calexico.

This has been a seismically active area. It must have shaken the needles off a few cactus and made the dogs bark, otherwise, there's not much out there to be disturbed.

Yuma FRper here, I definately felt that. My very first one ever. First I thought it was the wind, but the entire room was shaking. I mean it was ROCKING. Lasted a good 10 seconds.
There was an after tremor as well

Felt it here in Ehrenberg, AZ .... took a few minutes to locate it on the USGS earthquake map .... apparently there were a cluster of earthquakes in that area this morning

Felt it in Phoenix, AZ. Work above the 22nd floor and could see the window shades swaying.

I felt it here in El Cajon. My desk shook, but that’s about it.

You have a volcano and a couple of mountain ranges between you and the epicenter. That always tones things down a bit.
