Is Cali going to get the big one? Although 6.9 is pretty significant. I myself have never experienced an earthquake, so I really dont know if this is a "big one" or not

I didnt see this article yet, if so, please delete.

Apparently I didnt add enough of my own words..what else can I say?
Im sure there will be more info coming up, as this has just happened, it seems.

I was born and raised in Cali.

6.9 is not the BIG one.

But it's Big enough to cause plenty of damage and deaths if centered in just the right location.

As mentioned above, there is an already existing thread on the topic here.

Please add any further questions and/or comments to the above linked thread.

Thank you.
