Quarry explosion? They must use more explosive than I thought.

A little rattle in San Francisco.
4.2 and no damage reported.

A magnitude 4.2 earthquake that could be felt throughout the Bay Area struck Thursday night, officials said.

The temblor struck 1 mile northeast of Lafayette, the United States Geological Survey Web site said. Residents said it lasted between 10 and 15 seconds.

Don´t you think that there is an increase of seismic activity in California?

I have been checking all the quakes and there seems to be more than usual.

Did you notice?

Don´t you think that there is an increase of seismic activity in California?

Seems there has been a few and kinda makes you wonder what this means in relation to San francisco, as scientists keep saying a big one is due there at soem point,

i did find this artical on it that states not to worry to much yet,

The quake that rippled through the Bay Area and frayed some nerves Thursday night -- one of a bunch of recent shakes in the country's shakiest region -- doesn't portend the Big One.

So, put mass hysteria on hold, at least for a while. The 4.2 magnitude temblor, which struck at 8:40 p.m. about a mile northeast of downtown Lafayette, was felt to the coast, north past Santa Rosa and as far south as Hollister and as far east as Sacramento, say geological experts. And a few people said it put a good scare into them.

I'm sure there are more on the mid Atlantic ridge recently.

I hadn't particularly noticed more in California, but there may well be.

Mid Atlantic ridge definitely seems more active seismically, or maybe I just hadn't noticed before.
