It is reported by a civilian on the 'phone that a tee vee set has fallen off something. And a woman has lost all of her Winnie-the-Pooh collectible plates.
My husband says he felt it. I guess I was just oblivious.
Our house routinely creaks and pops whenever the sun goes down, and the temperature changes, so I can't tell the difference between earthquakes and normal.
Earthquake Ed. Sez: Yes, we did. There was a short movement, a pause & then more movement, then more; we were thinking it was building to something large & serious, but then it stopped.
Having spent 95+% of our life between the Pacific & the Coast Range, the effing ground would literally have to open & swallow us to make any impression.
Y'all probably live right on top of fairly solid rock; of course once the mts. start really moving we've all had it anyway.
EQ Ed Adds: We macho types all talk big, from the safety of ten or so miles away, but a 4.7 (or less) directly under one's couch or folding chair is another story entirely.
When the Big Quake of '94 hit this reporter was out of bed & holding onto the tee vee set before you could have said "Jackie Robinson."

Oh My Gah. Seriously, did you feel anything? I had no freaking idea - we never feel anything in Topanga. But then I was hung over from last night.

My husband felt it. But he said it takes more than a 4.7 to get him off the couch.
