All:
Just had a "significant" earthquake last night - while watching "The Closure". Wife starts screaming; everything shaking, bookcase fall over, pictures off walls, etc. Lasted about 20 seconds. Understand it is about 6.1 in magnitude. Interesting experience. Lots of little tremors subsequently; some lasting up to 5 seconds; rattling windows.
From USGS:
Our house is at S2deg 31.03' ; E121deg 20.9'
I'll post a few snaps of the house later - - -
