What does the depth mean in terms of the severity of a quake? Anyone? :)

Ernie Hariks Garcia
Michael the deeper one was felt in Lancaster while the more shallow one wasn’t. It also depends on how strong it was.
Thank you! :)

I felt it – one big jolt and shook my place good here in Valencia.
There was a 3.0 about 20 minutes before this one, very close to the same epicenter. I sort of felt/heard it, but didn’t bother to look it up until the 4.5. I encourage people to do the “Did you feel it?” survey from the USGS site.

I’m in Castaic Junction. I felt one large jolt at the beginning of the 4.5. I didn’t feel the 3.0.

had about a 3 second shake here in Acton. I heard it coming through the hills – thought it was the wind at frist, until we started shaking.
I heard it coming first also, we are in Canyon country and thought the same thing at first, wind hitting the house…
The deeper the quake the less it’s felt. As well as the damage.
Thank you! :)

I live in Castaic and i didnt feel it i heard it. Stuff fell off my shelf n wondow shook almost like it was just windy out side
This maybe California’s year that everybody been talking about since I was a little girl an that’s been along time ago. Nevada maybe ocean front property before we no it just saying folks.
A shallow depth means you can feel more shaking at the surface!
Lol called my family they didn’t feel a thing lol
Didn’t feel it on the western side of The Yellowstone Caldera.
Danger.danger.danger..stay safe..
That was bad
I know those earthquakes are scary. But I would trade. I hate Tornadoes! We’ve had Tornadoes all around us here in Alabama. Most people do not have basement houses, so there is no where to run. Just get in closet and hope for best.
Not me. I survived the Northridge Earthquake and it has stayed well encased in my mind. We have Tornadoes here in Ohio and in Minnesota where I lived for a long time. We also had Tornado warnings, bad skies, change in the temperatures, etc. In other words Tornado weather. With the Northridge we had no earthquake warnings. If we ever have an earthquake like the early San Francisco earthquake we shall never forget it in out lifetime.
