That’s a pretty small earthquake for California. You’ll feel a 5.x but it doesn’t get much more than a passing blurb in the local news when it happens. Everything there is built for earthquakes, the damage doesn’t start until you get to the 6.x range.

It was so close to SF that it was much more apparent than other earthquakes. For me, this was the most noticeable earthquake in SF this year.

Yeah, it was longer and stronger than any other quake I recall feeling living in various parts of California for over 10 years. Felt stronger than the one that got an emergency alert sent out in the past week (2?).

Same here —- was shorter than the last one this year though.

The "earthquake scene" from LA Story applies to all of California.

I think The City felt it more than usual because it was centered near SFO. Most earthquakes we feel are higher magnitude but further away. Commonly NE of Berkeley.

Even at this 3.9ish we had a few things fall off shelves :)
