EARTHQUAKE!


I just felt a small earthquake while I was sitting here at home. It was just a mild rocking quake -- everything just sort of gently swayed side to side for about a minute. I don't even think anything fell off the shelves.


USGS just got the data for the quake. It's a magnitude 6.5 quake centered NE of San Simeon, which is halfway between Monterey and San Luis Obispo. 6.5 is a fairly large quake.


I've always been really sensitive to feeling earthquakes -- I guess it's from growing up here.


Update: At least 2 die in the quake
