Right on the edge of the Long Valley Caldera then. Yes interesting indeed.

I'm wondering where this 5.0-6.5 is supposed to hit in the next day or so... 5.0-6.5 Earthquake Imminent in Southern California

Hmmm...that's 4 ~M4+ in the last couple of days all in the same area...

And the depth has cut itself in half again, still moving to the north...I still see a grim future for many living in a 60 mile radius of these "aftershocks".

I have the worst feeling of anxiety I've had in the past 3 days of having it. I am seriously worried about this earthquake this man has been predicting on quakeprediction.com. I have this uneasy feeling this quake could be the precursor to the "big one", or just be a large earthquake that hits an unprepared heavily-populated area, such as mine, Ventura County. Two 4.0+ have hit Baja this morning, and there have been swarms off the Northern California/Oregon very recently that are worrysome as well. Let's fasten our seatbelts guys.

That's what I've been watching...

Started out right off shore of Cali/Or border...

Now both ends of SA/JDF are shakin'...

more around long valley...salton sea...

But still there's that one spot N/NE of LA that's pretty sparse...strange?

Hope it doesn't crack...

I was just getting ready to add this. 3.8 is too big for my liking - especially like you say - Northern ca has been lighting up.
we also had a little 2.2 in Santa Monica earlier this week -
I think...about 2 miles out in the ocean. Not usual.
