EQ!

Wow-- pretty decent earthquake just now. Very close (by the type of shaking). I'm guessing about 4.5-ish? And epicenter around Sylmar. Still feeling some residual rumbling. Not even strong enough to toss stuff off the shelf, but certainly noticeable-- perfect "tourist quake".

EDIT: Yep! Pegged it: 4.5 NNW of Chatsworth. I got the distance right, but it was in the opposite direction, putting it around Towsley Canyon (where we hike a lot). Probably shook some boulders loose: not a great place to be during even a small tembler!

I'll bet! Considering where they estimated the epicenter (about 4 miles NNW of Chatsworth), that would put the quake...oh...about 30 feet to your left.

I'm guessing no damages and pets ok? How did the dogs react?

Xander was completely pissed off and blamed it all on me, but he has gotten over it. Dogs were fine.

Horsey got decapitated.
