Representatives from our member cities took a tour with Dr. Lucy Jones of the @DLJCSS of the Newport-Inglewood earthquake fault from its northern-most exposure in Baldwin Hills through the South Bay. She explained how fault movement will affect infrastructure. 🫨🏢

Good morning Redwood Coast, CA. Did you feel the magnitude 7 earthquake about 40 miles northwest of Ferndale? See: earthquake.usgs.gov/earthqua… The #ShakeAlert system was activated. @Cal_OES @CAGeoSurvey @UOHazardsLab @OregonOEM

With the Baroque Ensemble at @ColburnSchool , we will use music to process our emotional response to the climate crisis in a way that will lead to action. I'm providing the narration about the climate, while the students provide the music! @TempoAction

The state is giving money to homeowners to fix certain seismic problems. Getting these retrofits done will save us all money in the long run latimes.com/california/story…

Updated measurements show the Manatee River (near Sarasota) has entered major flood stage from excessive rainfall and ground already saturated from Helene last week.

The 4.7-magnitude earthquake was felt as far as San Diego and north into the coast of Bakersfield. Seismologist Dr. Lucy Jones explains why some residents felt the earthquake while others didn't. foxla.com/news/earthquake-ma…

Does an increase in earthquake activity mean the 'big one' is coming? Seismologists say no ktla.com/news/california/doe…

California is covered pretty well with seismic instruments and they recorded the shaking from this morning's M4.7 earthquake near Malibu. Highest ground accelerations (0.19g) were measured at Lake Sherwood in Thousand Oaks and Agoura Hills (0.10g). #earthquake

Nice cup of morning JOLT! Just had a M4.7 earthquake centered near Malibu. Could possibly be on either the Anacapa-Dume or Malibu Coast Fault Zones (both are nearby). #earthquake

I didn't feel a thing - I was in the middle of my morning exercise routine, quite a ways from this M4.7 5 miles north of Malibu. Below are the M≥4s for 2024

I was going to argue about the maximum magnitude comment, sure that I remembered bigger ones in the past. But I searched the catalog and the largest quake of the last 90 years is the same M3.9 in 1953
Welp! Turns out that little M3.5 was a foreshock, because we just felt a M3.9 earthquake here in northern Orange County. We also got a @MyShakeApp alert! Looks like we have a new maximum magnitude for this area of the Fontana Trend. 👍 #earthquake #Ontario

Every culture in the world with earthquakes has a tradition of "Earthquake weather" - and it is the weather they had for their most memorable quake. Today's quakes are one of many this year - most of which happened when it wasn't hot. podbean.com/eas/pb-begkq-114…

Today we are having a small swarm in the Fontana Seismicity Lineation, a northeast-striking line of many small quakes. Today we have so far M3.9, M3.5 and many M1s and M2s. I've seen this tyoe of cluster in Fontana dozens of times in my decades watching SoCal quakes.

‘Too unstable’: Landslide forcing electricity cutoff to Rancho Palos Verdes homes. Tectonic forces are all expressing the inevitability of gravity. Those of us who live in tectonically active regions should remember that we can’t stop gravity latimes.com/california/story…
