It was 11 miles WNW of Greenville CA. Only about 40 miles as the crow flies from us.....A 5.7.....

We did in Davis. Our first quake that we know of since moving here.

Did you fall in the ocean, or are you east of that?

I was down in SoCal, so I missed it.

I miss the earthquakes. I loved them when I lived in Southern CA. Now I am in Minneapolis again. We have Tornados here. Those things scare the crap out of me!

There have been around 300 aftershocks since the quake. We have only felt the big one.....

Yeah, I think I prefer the earthquakes to the tornados (or even floods, blizzards, etc.) any day. Thanks to the building codes of today, earthquakes tend to be relatively light on damage in the U.S. ... but there's not much you can do to slow down a tornado!

Another reason to like Bozeman! Let's see...

Hurricanes? Uh, prolly not unless that global warming thing really picks up speed.
Tsunamis? See above.
Tornadoes? Possible I guess but pretty damn unlikely.
Earthquakes? A few little ones every once in awhile from Yellowstone, but not a huge worry.
Floods? Maybe some small ones here and there but not the entire town sized floods that cause major damage.
Blizzards? Please, this is Bozeman. Everyone would be going nuts over all the amazing powder Bridger and Big Sky just got.
Super Volcano? Alright, you got me there but if that thing goes I'll be incinerated before I even realize what happened so I'm cool with that.

Pipe down!!! We don't need everybody thinking they want to move here.
