EARTHQUAKE!

We had a 5.4 earthquake right before lunch today. It was such a weird feeling. I was sitting at the computer near the front of the house and the movement seemed to come from the back forward, like a wave. It was like having a large wave crest over you. I then looked and saw the paddle fan swaying for a short time. Then everything stopped!

It was over very quickly. It still caused a whoa moment! I did feel a small after shock but it was very mild. This was the first one I had actually felt while here in California. I had, a couple of other times, thought I felt something but I wasn't sure. I was sure this time.
