4.7 Southern California

I am feeling that California is about to get a major earthquake. The ring of fire is heating up and the West Coast is starting to shake with more sizable quakes.

Magnitude 4.7 Quake Shakes SoCal
Published: 9/2/07, 2:46 PM EDT

LAKE ELSINORE, Calif. (AP) - A magnitude 4.7 earthquake shook Riverside County on Sunday but no injuries or damage were reported, authorities said.

The jolt at 10:29 a.m. was centered near Lake Elsinore, about 50 miles southeast of Los Angeles, the U.S. Geological Survey said.

It was felt as far away as downtown Los Angeles.

"There was a lot of shaking in the shop for a few seconds. All my co-workers looked at each other and said 'earthquake!'" said Myong Kim, an employee at the Latte Express coffee shop in Lake Elsinore. "It was a little scary but no damage."
