Fault Map around San Fran



A relative of mine felt this and contacted me immediately.  She is over by the coast North of San. Fran.

Notice it was only 7km deep.

People felt it all around.  Here is the Felt Map so far, less than an hour after the earthquake.

7:40 am A little more than a hour after the EQ - showing more felt it.  The Salinas area has a lot of felt on it now, where as the map above did not show felt in that area.  It was a far reaching felt quake.

Live coverage from Local news online -  No power in Napa downtown, gas leaks.  Mobile Homes burned down.


As of 9:53 am est - California EQ map - showing aftershocks so far from Napa Quake


Silver Oak Winery Picture.  I can't imagine how much wine has been lost at the wineries.
