Key places to verify current shaking and updates
- U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) earthquake feed: real-time quakes, epicenters, magnitudes, and felt reports.
- California Earthquake Authority or State geoscience portals: regional shaking summaries and aftershock guidance.
- Local news outlets in Southern California (e.g., Los Angeles Times, Riverside press) often post rapid updates with maps and safety tips.
What to look for in latest updates
- Magnitude and depth: smaller events (mag ≤ 3.5) are common and may be barely felt; larger events (mag ≥ 4.0) usually produce noticeable shaking.
- Felt reports: Did You Feel It? dashboards show how widely shaking was felt; if you felt something, file a quick report to help authorities.
- Aftershocks: even after a quake, smaller aftershocks can occur for hours to days.
- Safety guidance: drop, cover, and hold on during shaking; check yourself for injuries, inspect damage to structures, and follow local emergency guidance.
