Wow, Claycord….you sure got this up fast. I just felt it six minutes ago in Clayton. A strong jolt that lasted about 2 seconds.

Felt it in Pittsburg near the middle school on Leland.

Yes, about 8:35. Soft roll and wasn’t sure it wasn’t just a big truck going by.

We felt it in Clayton. It seemed to roll through the house, more than a jolt.

Just a little jiggle out here in the Delta.
USGS pin points it around Empire Mine Rd. west of Dallas Ranch area of Antioch.

Felt it in Clayton. Rattled the windows and rolled my office chair a little. Waited for it to get worse and glad it didn’t. The dog and cat slept through it. Open a bag of chips and they come running. Shake the house and they continue dreaming. Huh!

Live out on Marsh Creek road, felt like someone dropped a cinder block in the house, serious jolt!

Thought it was my upstairs neighbor moving furniture again.

Shook my house in Walnut Country, Concord. I went online right away and read “four miles from Antioch,” but it still doesn’t show which direction.

… right off Limeridge… didn’t feel a thing

Live near Concord Pav – heard tinkling of china and a moderate roll feeling and it lasted about 2 seconds. My wife was sitting on sofa in family room and shouted out : “EARTHQUAKE!”.

USGS shows it east of Clayton, not near Antioch.

Felt it in Dana Estates, close to Naval Weapons Station.
I grew up in Westlake where the San Andreas fault line runs right through going out to the Pacific Ocean; I love the soft rolling earthquakes I’ve felt over 66 years. This one was smooth and only lasted about 2-3 seconds. The ones in Daly City, Westlake sounded like a freight train running up and through your house.
I was on the Bay Bridge back in October 1989, that was scary.
