We felt it in West Hollywood as a very gentle swaying... in fact, Manuel, who was walking around in the kitchen at the time, would not have noticed if I hadn't pointed out our tiki lamps and fish floats slowly swinging back and forth. A very different experience from the St. Paddy's day trembler centered in Westwood (the closest quake epicenter we've ever experienced)... that one was a jarring up and down motion... we heard things tumbling and breaking in the dark... but fortunately upon inspection, only a resin tiki statue bit the dust, and not a single mug was harmed in the process!
