The largest earthquake to hit the Bay Area since 1989 shook Northern California just after 3 a.m. Sunday morning.

The U.S. Geological Survey reported the quake, with a preliminary magnitude of 6.0, was centered about four miles northwest of American Canyon and hit at 3:20 a.m. The temblor, which took place at a depth of about 6.7 miles, was felt at least as far away as Santa Cruz County, according to users of Twitter.

More than 60,000 people were without power in Napa and Sonoma counties, including 27,600 in the city of Napa and 15,400 in the city of Sonoma, according to PG&E.

NBC reporter says it is a fault line that has been dormant for 1.6 million years.

David Schwarz of USGS wonders where the reporter came up with that. Says it was NOT the Franklin Fault.

Reporter says there have been at least 15 aftershocks and more expected.

Schwarz - 50+% probability of a 5.0 aftershock within 7 days.

Update, 6:10 a.m.: By way of an interview on KCBS: David Oppenheimer of U.S. Geological Survey is saying that this morning’s earthquake occurred on the West Napa Fault, and the agency has named the event the South Napa Earthquake.
