Thanks, Dave - let's see, where was I at 3:40 PM - I think I was here at home in San Lorenzo near Hayward, east bayshore. Did not feel it, although I see someone in Contra Costa County noticed it. We don't get much shaking from most quakes - even a 5.0 within 15-20 miles only gives us a tiny notice. Not sure why - must be the specific location. People all around us will say, "Feel that???" and we say "Feel what?" Parkfield is the place where the USGS has a seismograph network set up because quakes of a specific size - around MM 6.0 or so IIRC - have happened there with considerable regularity. However, the last predicted "clockwork" quake there was supposed to happen several years ago (it did not yet occur), and nothing bigger than yesterday's 4.0 has been recorded there since (that I know of). So, maybe this one has the seismologists buzzing...a foreshock of something bigger to come? A MM 6 in Parkfield would get folks excited. A MM 7.0 there would give Gilroy/Hollister/Monterey/San Jose some trouble, and maybe SF too. And of course, an 8 there would get LOTS of attention. Bruce I used to live in Prunedale. |
