The cluster of quakes started with a magnitude 4.1 temblor striking 12 miles from Hollister and 19 miles from Salinas at 4:58 a.m. at a depth of .6 miles...
Three minutes later, at 5:01 a.m., a magnitude 3.2 earthquake was reported by the USGS in the same area. Soon after that a third quake with a magnitude of 3.0 was reported, and at 6:22 a.m. a fourth with a magnitude of 3.8 hit....
About an hour later, two more quakes rattled the area: a magnitude 3.2 at 7:15 a.m. and a 3.8 at 7:27 a.m., both 13 miles from Hollister.

I guess the thing that stands out here in CA where earthquakes are common, is the number of moderate shakers all in a row. There were two aftershocks but four separate distinct quakes, or so that's what they're saying.

I certainly hope Baker, CA will quickly become a seaside town.

Lets all move to Cali so we can experience the shake and bake.

Nah. Lets not and say we did.

I don't know about cali but California has some real good places for earthquakes. Hollister is the earthquake capital of California. I live on the Hayward fault line, about 1,000 feet from it. I sure would like a shake it up sometime before I die.

I hope they know how to swim.

Waiting for headlines to read: MAJOR QUAKE HITS CA Dated Nov 7th That would make my day.

Great time to show up in the peoples’ republic today for a week of golf and goofing off. How far is Salinas from Palm Desert?
