Breaking on CNN.
very long quake, started out slow, rolling, then went to sharper back & forth, then rolled off.
Shake, shake, shake...

It was a good 30 second roller here in Cypress, California. We are a few miles West of Disneyland.
In San Diego - felt it good - good enough that I went outside.
In fact, just felt a small tremor again. There have been several tremors in the 4.3 range for the past few days.
But .. a 6.9 is not a small earthquake.
Rolling motion - like a boat.
Felt it here in Hollywood too. the studio just shook, people stared and everyone went outside to check if their cars are still there..
Felt it here in L.A.
Very long shimmy.
There was just a 4.1 up in Sonoma County, not quite a bookend, but interesting. Keep hitting “refresh” on the quake.usgs.gov page.
felt here in south Orange County...right during the middle of the easter egg hunt. The kids all just stood in the middle of the lawn and rode the waves :o). Hope everyone and their property is okay.
Felt the roller while my wife and I were watching Jesus of Nazareth.
a 4.1 has also just hit the Geysers area in N. CA
Pretty gnarly here in the IE! :o0
Looking at the map it appears to be part of the Southern San Andreas fault that runs into the Sea of Cortez. They have lots of smaller earthquakes in that general area all the time including a few 5’s. This is the largest one in quite while.
We felt it strong in Yuma, I could see the cars rocking on their suspensions in the driveway, and the house across the street the windows were flexing and moving...
Rolled for about 10 seconds in L.A. Harbor. No major.
Felt is here in the SanFernando Valley. We could tell it was big - somewhere. Only felt like a slight, slow roll here.
Hemet-San Jacinto rockin and rollin on Easter Sunday...
