Sylmar 1971, 6.6 Richter

Northridge 1994, 6.7 Richter

Ridgecrest 2019, 7.1 Richter

I remember them all, and none too fondly.

One of my neighbors couldn’t take it and moved to Las Vegas after Northridge.

That Ridgecrest quake was the longest and strongest and it picked up speed as it went. I thought it was going to knock the house apart. I bet the house hasn’t forgotten it either.
