Earthquake Los Angeles (4.4) - Info from USGS

Four hours ago, around 4am, I was about to sleep when Los Angeles was shaken by a 4.4 earthquake. As always, any tremor around these parts is not unusual. But when the ground shakes here, you can't avoid thinking if that quick shake you just felt will be followed by a bigger shake a few minutes later.

Here's information from the U.S Geological Survey about this morning's tremor.

Earthquake Los Angeles.

A few minutes ago, I heard my window rattle a bit. I don' t think that was a ghost trying to scare me, or my imagination playing games with me. That was an earthquake. I've been sleepy since the last hour. But that window noise definitely woke me up a bit. Will the 'Big One' happen while I am asleep?

According to the Southern California Earthquake Data Center, that tremor registered 4.4 on the scale.
