Just talked to my girlfriend in Oregon and she said she didn't feel it in Bend. 7.0 is a decent sized one too.

shit.... the cabin I've stayed in at the redwoods will be gone. (right on a small cliff overlooking beach.) It's fifty years old. Big Lagoon.

Whoaaaaa - first there's the 5.2 in Anza (south end of the state)...now this 7 point whatever at the northern end of California.... is the middle next???

I wonder since I've got to go by Parkfield and Kettleman City in the morning.

"Hi honey - could you call Triple A - seems I gotten stuck in the San Andreas Fault"

[crstlextrm]

just read that it has been downgraded to a bulliten, and that a tsunami is unlikely.

[BENDOR]

where are folks getting this info? I didnt feel it in Bend.

I think the world is trying to tell us something.... Earthquakes in the west, tornadoes in the midwest and nasty heat in the east. I think I'm going to move underground.

Pretty cool, hope its nothing

I'm going to see if I can see waves coming under the Bridge....later, I'll report if I see anything.

Good thing that was a strike slip (horizontal movement) instead of a thrust (vertical movement, like in Indonesia 12/26/04) earthquake or the west coast would be f-u-c-k-e-d).

What should prove interesting is whether the loading of surrounding parts of the plate and subduction zone cause further earthquakes elsewhere in CA....

3 large movements on the pacific rim in under a week....

[Arty50]

What a bummer. I was kinda hoping I could come down from the safety of 6,200' and visit Shoe at his new seaside home.

[skier666]

Well, just drove over to see "the wave"....

...and they cancelled the warning, so I came home.

...Boring

[bossass]

Wow, that's kinda crazy. I was on the OR coast all day today for the first time in months. I was walking on the beach in area that if you didn't know a tsumnami was coming you'd be fucked. Glad TGR is here for me to get all my urgent news

[watersnowdirt]

One of the few times I'm not so psyched to live to close to the ocean.

Glad to hear the warning got downgraded....
