Dude, stay calm and get as far in land as possible.
 
That was a pretty big ass quake, hopefully there was no vertical shift in the ocean floor.

Damn clsoe to the coast too. Not much warning time.
 
it'll hit san francisco long before it hits me in san diego, but I doubt it'll amount to much of anything other than a high tide

7.0 out in the ocean for us is just a foot massage. Wasn't big enough to move that much of the ocean all the way down the pacific coast. Will probably see crazy surfers out in numbers tryin ta catch waves.
 
Well, I live in L.A., and so far, nothing on the news,and no "breaking coverage" interrupting network t.v.

...the Tsunami Warning And Watch Status Is Canceled For
California - Oregon - Washington - British Columbia - And
Alaska...
 
See... 6.2 miles deep, quake wasn't big enough ta get things movin with enough force.
 
:up: Good to hear. Hopefully there won't be any bigger quakes in the works in the days to come. I know earthquakes aren't exactly unusual for those living in CA, it does seem that it wasn't too many days ago that I had posted about a 5.0 earthquake that luckily didn't cause any harm to life either...

Also Hi EP and people. I found this place again while looking through a oooollllllldddd backup. I have filled over 10TB and was looking at my collection of antiques. Any bids on the 500Mhz Win 95 fix?
Any of the SP crew still out there?
