4.1 magnitude earthquake strikes Lytle Creek area, USGS says

E WITH US AS YOU CONTINUE TO DRIVE TOWARD THAT AREA. BUT I DO HAVE A LITTLE BIT MORE INFORMATION THAT THIS THIS QUAKE HAS NOW BEEN, UH, UPDATED TO A MAGNITUDE 4.1. SO INITIALLY WE HEARD IT WAS A 4.6 QUAKE. THEN WE HEARD 4.4. NOW WE ARE GETTING, UH, FROM OUR EARTHQUAKE EXPERTS THAT IT IS A 4.1 MAGNITUDE QUAKE. AND IT WAS, UM, JUST SHY OF A MILE NORTHWEST OF LITTLE CREEK, ABOUT 11.5 MILES SOUTH SOUTHEAST OF PHELAN AND ABOUT 11.9 MILES NORTH NORTHEAST OF RANCHO CUCAMONGA, 12 MILES, UH, GIVE OR TAKE A BIT NORTHWEST

OF MUSCOY. AND, UM. YEAH. SO THOSE ARE THE CLOSEST AREAS THAT MIGHT HAVE FELT THIS QUAKE. BUT IF YOU FELT THIS QUAKE, FEEL FREE TO TWEET US. GIVE US A CALL, LET US KNOW WHAT YOU FELT. UM, AND LET, LET US KNOW IF THERE WAS ANY DAMAGE IN YOUR AREA. BUT AGAIN, IF YOU’RE JUST JOINING US, BREAKING NEWS, WE HAD A 4.1 MAGNITUDE QUAKE JUST A COUPLE OF MINUTES BEFORE 11 A.M. THIS MORNING, AND WE DID FEEL IT HERE IN THE STUDIO SOME OF THE LIGHTS, I BELIEVE, WERE MOVING AND PERHAPS SOME THINGS ON THE

DESK. AGAIN, I MENTIONED THIS EARLIER, BUT BRIANNA WAS ALREADY IN THE STUDIO. SO BRIANNA, I DON’T KNOW IF YOU WANT TO WEIGH IN ON THIS, BUT YOU OH, OKAY.

WE’RE GOING TO GET TO HER IN JUST A LITTLE BIT. UH, BUT SHE WAS SAYING, UM, SHE WAS SAYING THAT SHE DID FEEL IT AS I WAS WALKING INTO THE STUDIO, SHE SAID, WAS THAT AN EARTHQUAKE? DID YOU JUST FEEL AN EARTHQUAKE? AND AGAIN, I HADN’T FELT IT BECAUSE I WAS WALKING AND RUSHING TO GET IN HERE. BUT WE DO HAVE SOME TIPS. UM, RIGHT THERE ON

YOUR SCREEN FOR YOU TO SORT OF REVIEW WHAT TO DO AFTER AN EARTHQUAKE. AND OBVIOUSLY THE FIRST VERY OBVIOUS, YOU WANT TO MAKE SURE YOU’RE NOT INJURED. THIS QUAKE BEING, UH, NOT A SUPER LARGE QUAKE. WE’RE NOT EXPECTING TO HAVE A, YOU KNOW, TO HEAR ABOUT INJURIES, PERSONAL INJURIES, BUT YOU ALSO WANT TO LOOK FOR AND DISTINGUISH ANY SMALL FIRES, OBVIOUSLY, AGAIN, THIS IS BASIC INFORMATION. YOU WANT TO LEAVE THE GAS ON AT YOUR MAIN VALVE UNLESS YOU SMELL GAS OR THINK IT’S LEAKING. OBVIOUSLY IF THERE ARE ANY ANYTHING SPILLED IN THE HOME BLEACH IS

GASOLINE FLAMMABLE LIQUIDS. UM, AND THEN YOU WANT TO OPEN YOUR CLOSETS AND CABINET DOORS CAUTIOUSLY IN CASE ANYTHING IS, YOU KNOW, MIGHT FALL OFF OF YOUR SHELVES AT HOME. BUT AGAIN, THIS WAS A MILD, RELATIVEL
