Earthquake magnitude 5.0 hits LA area

Around 8:40pm tonight, we felt the quake in Irvine. The quake shook for about 10 seconds. Our girls were getting ready for bed at that time. Our house rumbled a little bit. Nothing fell from the bookshelf, kitchen cabinets, or the walls. All is well, fortunately. It certainly was the first time for our girls...
