#Ojai #California #Earthquake

California has an early warning alert system that sends a message to an app on your phone to let you know you're about to feel shaking. It's location specific, so it won't do you any good in Florida (I've tried), but lots of media reports this afternoon that the alert system worked.

IT'S ALL CONNECTED, MAN! TROPICAL STORM! EARTHQUAKES! JEWISH SPACE LASERS! CHEMTRAILS!! WAKE UP SHEEPLE!!!

Six quakes in 20 minutes. All above 3 and one above 5.

Add to that the ongoing rain that is supposed to become intense during the next hour, and we have a recipe for landslides and flood disasters.

Hoping the folks in Ojai remain safe during this crazy series of events.

KTLA is reporting 6 aftershocks east of Ojai in the Simi Valley area where it's storming heavily.

Should I order a pizza?

A 5.1 quake can cause minor to moderate damage to structures near the epicenter, especially older structures. It's not unusual for the epicenter to have a communicatons blackout until services are restored.

I suspect we'll get pictures of merchandise down in stores, broken windows here and there, perhaps a collapsed chimney on an older home. But it will take time.

Strictly based on a Google search, the San Cayetano Fault runs through Ojai.

(Ojai is not near the San Andreas Fault.)

My wife is in the living room. I'm in the bedroom. I have opened the window and am watching and listening to the rain.
