Light earthquake strikes outside Truckee, rattles residents
(Updated Sunday, June 26, 2005, 12:15 PM)
TRUCKEE, Calif. (AP) - A light earthquake struck Sunday morning several miles north of Lake Tahoe, according to a preliminary report from the U.S. Geological Survey.
A Nevada County Sheriff's Department dispatcher, contacted by telephone minutes after the quake, said it was too soon to tell whether there were damages or injuries.
At Glenshire General Store in Truckee, workers prepared to dash out the door as the ground shook.
"It was just one big thump. Everything shook but nothing fell off the shelves," said owner Tina Stull. "It was just a big, strong jolt. We had a lot of scared people. Everybody just sort of froze."
Employee Pam McCowan added: "It went on long enough that we considered running out of the store."
The magnitude-4.8 quake hit at 11:45 a.m. and was centered about 8 miles east of Truckee.
well, the next time she acts that way you will know what to expect. At least you will have a warning.
Impending Arizona Beachfront Property Ping. ;-)
These Days I half expect SanFran to crack wide open and the Devil himself to emerge. Hang on!
