I think my dad said he felt it in Fremont. I slept through it if it did reach here.

Didn't click the link. Haward fault? Best to have a bunch of small ones rather than none at all and then the BIG ONE.
Good ole Cali.

Channel 2 was showing shots of Safeway and the Italian deli up in Montclair. One had windows shattered and the other had wine bottles everywhere.
Luckliy it was only messy and no other damage happened. It really felt like it was a lot stronger than they reported.
