Far away from me. Will be interested to hear of aftershocks following this slow roller.

It actually looked close to Fresno.  Thought you might have felt it.

And so it goes,

The epicenter was near Ridgequest, which is maybe a third of the way from Bakersfield to Las Vegas as the proverbial crow flies. It's a little closer to LA than Fresno, but both are far enough that we only felt a little.

No apparent damage in LA. Our destruction is delayed yet again.

I'm on the coast now, in the land of Good Affiliate KSBW-8.2 and, oddly enough on this day, about a mile from the epicenter of the Loma Prieta quake in 1989.

to quote the LA City PIOs who were questioned as to why
there were no official cellphone alerts:

The #ShakeAlertLA app only sends alerts if shaking is 5.0+ in LA County.
Epicenter was 6.4 in Kern County, @USGS confirms LA’s shaking was below
4.5. We hear you and will lower the alert threshold with @USGS_ShakeAlert

I’m watching the Dodgers and the camera shook for a bit. Players on field didn’t seem to notice but the fans did.
