EARTHQUAKE!!!

[AngelSentFromUpAbove]

Did anyone feel it?


There was just an earthquake right now.... (I'm in the bay area)

 

[Balt]

The guys on ESPN did in San Jose.

 

[b0mbrman]

Yup...Berkeley here

Short and sweet

 

[trmiv]

OK, I'm not crazy. I just felt it BIG TIME. Then I turned it on the news, and they haven't mentioned it yet. Decent size one

 

[Soulflare]

CBC guys did too in San Jose.

Woah...and you're in LA?

[Edit] n/m. just saw that Lakers bit in your sig

 

[Electrode]

That's the second one in the last few months!

Perhaps the big one is imminant.

No dude. I'm a Laker fan, but not in LA. Newark, CA.

 

[satori]

Yeah, I just felt it too... my god, I can't believe the first place I came was anandtech.

I have to say I'm a little disappointed, though. By the time I ran downstairs to talk to my roommates (a couple seconds), it was over. WTF?!?!?

 

[trmiv]

Funny that channel 2 news has not said anything about it yet.

 

[Soulflare]

CBC guys just said it was a 5.0 on the richter scale.

Heh...yeah, I checked your profile one second too late

I was gonna say, if you felt it in LA and I felt it in Berkeley, there must be a big chunk of Fresno floating around the Pacific right now

Fresno floating out to the Ocean? Not exactly a bad thing.

Nope, I didn't.

 

[Geekbabe]

I'm in Boston, the earth hasn't moved around here in quite some time !

An earthquake occurred at 10:00:29 PM (PDT) on Monday, May 13, 2002. 5.2 magnitude according to USGS
event occurred 5 km (3 miles) SW of Gilroy, CA

Channel 2 news is apparently going to just pretend it didn't happen.

 

[trmiv]

KRON channel 4 has it on right now. of course, they have nothing else to show since they lost NBC.

 

[StattlichPassat]

FOXnews.com and The Drudge Report haven't reported on it yet...

Very cool though, as long as there wasn't damage. A 5.0 won't do much. Those are fun! (used to live in Bakersfield- the Northridge rocked! literally.)

 

[spanky]

someone hold me, i'm scared! oh wait... i'm in nj. nevermind.
