just swayed a lot... lasted about 20 seconds or so.. Epicenter in Chino Hills, 5.8 on the Richter scale.

 

they said the center of the quak was about 2 miles south of pomona. so i wonder how close it was to the track?

but i'd say it'll be ok

 

We felt it while working on a car in the RSA R&D center here in Torrance, CA!

Nothing major but I still ran for the door like a little bitch!

It really was funny...I come from the Mid-East where the biggest natural disaster we usually get is a tornado or some flooding... but when I felt the ground moving I bolted for the door. My co-workers all looked at me a laughed!

 

Born and raised in Socal, earthquakes are pretty common. Our shop shook pretty good, but nothing big enough for damage. The buildings out here get built pretty good to take quakes

 

Felt it here all the way in vegas....

hope everyone is ok.

yawn... so uh what happened? lol

i thought it was my laundry machine loosing a leg again

edit: but i freaked out at atco when i saw that thunderstorm come in like a tornado.. i guess its what your use too, earthquakes are boring, when i saw the t storm come in and take out the powerline, and flood the whole area in about 7 minutes that was scary.

 

My facility is at the epicentre! We are in Chino Hills, and it was pretty violent! Torco Oil bottles everywhere, and fallen crankshafts! We are ok, though.

Like you said, It's all what your used to. I thought Acto was pretty entertaining as storms go. You should have been here the past Sunday at 4 AM the lightning show was impressive. It woke up most people.

Bisi, glad to hear everyone is ok. Good thing oil bottles are plastic.

 

Major damage needs to be well past what happened today refer to northridge/san francisco quakes. Then the fact that everything rebuilt after those quakes is ten fold strength compared to what they were before. Fire is more of an issue in California now. Northern california has been burning for almost 2 full months now.

 

after what ive been through in the ocean, last weekend nothing comes close to making me worry. i guess im just a wuss when it comes to water... hahaha

but my *** is staying on land!

 

 

It was fun one.

 

damn
never had the pleasure of experiencing one

kinda had a small tremor while i was in basic in san diego

glad everyone that has chimed in thus far is ok

 

A turbo manifold fell on my head. I'm taking the rest of the day off. bye guys.

 

What kind of mani was it? Is it alright?

 

time for a scratch and dent sale i guess.

 

We are located 5 minutes from Chino Hills...a intake pipe fell on my windshield and busted it.

 

BTW it was a 5.4

we have had plenty worse

 

i think shorty can measure a 5.6 breaking wind.
