info on an earthquake in So CA and felt in SF !!!!! I missed it I was driving ! Is everyone OK !

An earthquake with a preliminary magnitude of 6.5 has been widely felt through the southern half of California today.

It was centered nearly 11 miles north of Cambria, Calif., according to preliminary data from the U.S. Geological Survey. Cambria is a coastal town about 35 miles northwest of San Luis Obispo, Calif. and 185 miles northwest of Los Angeles -- and near the Hearst Castle in San Simeon, Calif.

The earthquake shook California's Central Coast, rattling office buildings and sending light fixtures rocking as far north as San Jose and was even felt as a gentle swaying in San Francisco.

EDIT : Info via the KSBW Channel ! info HERE

Hopefully everyone down south is OK !

CNN.com said that there have been several aftershocks and they expect them to continue through the next few days. They also said that some of the aftershocks may be stronger than the main quake.

Felt it at the mall (300mi Away), thought I was still woozee from last night. Then heard people talking about it, nothing new

Was probably driving around because I didn't feel a thing.

I felt it in my office today. Thought I was getting dizzy. Sitting in my chair with both arms on the desk and I felt the desk moving around. The door started swinging back and forth about an inch. the guy sitting next to me didn't feel it.

That was about 10-15 miles south of downtown LA.

Pretty crazy.

News just said it was felt as far north as Reno. I didn't feel it. Good thing I'm going through the DT's right now.....LMAO
