    Yes, I think we had 12-14 of them yesterday or was it the day before. Located on the Big Island, Hawaii. Not felt in Honolulu...thank goodness!!! That biggie we had 5 years ago knocked out power for more than 12 hours!!! Felt like a train coming through the property and also a rolling motion kind of feeling. Yikes!!! Scared me something bad!!!

    Lived in the Bay Area and felt many of those quakes. The most memorable was the 89. We lost 3 foot of water out of our pool, but that was it. No electricity that night so missed the news on what has happening everywhere else. Now we live in the foothills and are not near a fault. I hope this little jiggle is not the prelude to other shifting.

    I read about it in the paper. I'm happy it wasn't worse. SIL was in CA for the last big one.

    There's earthquakes everyday in Ca, some you feel and others not. The local newspaper in Salinas, Ca always has a chart on the bottom of the front page showing the Reichter scale.
