California: Earthquake shakes Portions of San Diego and Riverside Counties
Reported by: San Diego 6 News Team
BORREGO SPRINGS - An earthquake was felt in portions of San Diego and Riverside Counties Thursday evening.
The magnitude 3.8 quake struck just before 5:00 p.m. and was centered about 10 miles north northwest of Borrego Springs and 59 miles northeast of downtown San Diego.
The quake was felt by many people in the northern two-thirds of San Diego County from the coast to the Salton Sea. People in Palm Springs also reported feeling Thursday's quake.
Numerous people posted to the San Diego 6 Facebook page about the quake. Letta Anglin said, "Felt it in Rancho Penasquitos."
"Not so much felt it as heard it in Ramona, said Brooke Blackford in her posting. "Felt it in Escondido," wrote Katie Ragsdale.
The quake was along the Coyote Creek Fault, which is north of where a 3.7 earthquake was centered Wednesday along the Elsinore Fault.
Quakes of this magnitude would not typically be expected to cause damage or injury, but can be felt by people over a wide area.

JULIAN - A magnitude 3.7 earthquake rattled Julian and other East County areas Wednesday afternoon.
It was centered 8 miles southeast of Julian and 42 miles east northeast of downtown San Diego at 3:58 pm..
The U.S. Geological Survey reports people felt the quake as far away as Tijuana and Temecula.
Several reports of shaking came from Jamul, Alpine and Pine Valley.
San Diego 6 News viewer Mary Shirley wrote on Facebook, "Felt it in Santee." From nearby, Nina Ferguson writes, "Felt it in the heart of Lakeside."
Alexa Adkins reports she felt the quake in Boulevard in a posting on the San Diego 6 Facebook page.
There were also reports of people feeling the quake in downtown San Diego and some areas of the San Diego coast.
