Upgraded to 7.2, thank goodness it was 20 miles deep or it could've been much worse.

Strongest one I have felt here in San Diego.

For my fellow chemists/nerds...(Kybosh)

I was at work running the NMR while it happened. It sure does some crazy things to the shimming.

I'm in Arizona now too. I didn't feel anything here on the west side of Phoenix. You must be further south.

I'm in Bullhead City. It's pretty west and north. You could have been driving at the time. Some people didn't feel it because they were in their cars.

Ring of fire...

I think a lot of it has to do with a chain reaction. Japan, then the big one in Chile, Mexico....

It's interesting to think how all the plates are connected. Haiti could have even had an affect on the other plates too.
