Earthquake damage on Trona Rd. Evacuations required at nearby Ridgecrest Regional Hospital
The strongest earthquake to hit Southern California in 20 years left scattered damage this morning and was felt from Las Vegas to Orange County, the US Geological Survey reported.
The quake, with an early magnitude of 6.4, was centered near Ridgecrest, a community west of the Mojave Desert and about 150 miles north of Los Angeles.
Reports of scattered damage, including rock slides and fires, rolled in by midday.
At least four large aftershocks, from 3.5 to 4.7 magnitude, and dozens smaller were recorded, officials said.
In Los Angeles, the temblor was felt as a long, rolling quake, and buildings rocked back and forth for at least several seconds.
Fortunately, the quake wasn't centered in a highly inhabited area this time and I haven't heard of any fatalities thus far.
