Re: [californiadisasters] Earthquake I Experienced 24 Years Ago Yesterday

That's okay Kyle. I enjoy the 1's and 2's all day long. I can do without the big guys. They kill!   Ed --- On Sun, 12/9/12, Kylie Johanson <kyliejohanson@yahoo.com> wrote: From: Kylie Johanson <kyliejohanson@yahoo.com> Subject: Re: [californiadisasters] Earthquake I Experienced 24 Years Ago Yesterday To: "californiadisasters@yahoogroups.com" <californiadisasters@yahoogroups.com> Cc: "Kylie Johanson" <kyliejohanson@yahoo.com> Date: Sunday, December 9, 2012, 7:26 PM   I've only been living in California for six days now. I really cannot wait until I get quaked really good! So far there have been like, magnitude 1s all over Southern California lately. Of course, I'm quite realistic about this. I don't expect earthquakes everyday.

Magnitued: ML5.0 Fault Involved: Raymond fault Depth: 15.6 km  Apart from its effects on local residents, this quake was notable for a few seismological details. First, it was followed by an unusually small number of aftershocks for a quake of its magnitude, the largest of which was hardly noticable -- only a magnitude 2.4 (unless the Montebello earthquake is considered an aftershock of this event). Second, it served to bring the debate over the sense of motion of the Raymond fault closer to an end, by providing a clear example of left-lateral movement most likely located along that fault.
