4.0 Earthquake Rattles Off L.A. Basin Coast [Updated] - LAist
A 4.0 magnitude earthquake struck about 40 miles off the coast this evening. At 10:42 p.m., the quake rattled 39 miles south of Malibu and 40 miles west of Palos Verdes Point. It was located 32 miles northeast of San Nicolas Island, one of the five in Channel Islands National Park.![]()
via USGSVarious people, from as far as the Santa Clarita Valley, reported feeling it on the USGS' Did You Feel It webpage.
Last week scientists theorized that Southern California is overdue for a massive earthquake along the San Andreas fault. It is unknown what caused tonight's earthquake. Nonetheless, always a good time to get prepared.
[Update: A 6.1 earthquake struck off the coast of Mexico at 7:12 p.m.
This is not scientific but leading up to the North Ridge quake in '94 there were a series of mid to high 3 size earthquakes in the Santa Monica bay. Make sure your earthquake kits are stocked and up to date.
