Zap -> Earthquake and aftershock (7/6/2019 3:42:29 AM)
In bed and was woken by the house rolling. The fist quake the rolling was the same. This aftershock must be up there on the scale as well. Its center is about 140 miles from vegas. Hope all are well in Ridgecrest California.

Possibly serious damage in Ridgecrest, though few direct reports from there yet. Watching live news conference now on CNN with USGS experts. Have a friend in Corona, CA, east of LA. I happened to be on Facebook when he posted "Crap. Another earthquake."

Stay safe Zap. By the way; do you think an earthquake of this magnitude had it occurred in or closer to Las Vegas? ?

For sure if it occurred as close as the California quake did to the town of Ridgecrest there would have been some major damage. I base my opinion upon the amount the earth moved here from the Ridgecrest quake. Officials have stated that the highway system has been constructed with earthquakes in mind. But So many older homes and apartment building here were constructed 60's, the 70's and 80's. I don't think earthquakes were a part of the equation in regards to building codes. We do have two? faults that run through Vegas.

Except for the rolling of the earth the only other notable things here is the pools having there water tossed out, swinging lights and people experiencing temporary loss of their equilibrium/dizziness
