Earthquake in SoCal

I hope that nobody was greatly impacted by the earthquake that occurred this morning. I was actually in my car at the time it happened and didn't even know about it until about 5 minutes after it occurred when the Loose Cannons on AM 570 started talking about it.
From what I heard on the radio it was a 5.8 on the richter scale that originated in Chino Hills. People as far south of San Diego felt it as well as people as far east as Las Vegas. Although this earthquake was by no means small it is not nearly as devastating as the 1994 earthquake that originated in Northridge.
Cal State Fullerton has closed their main campus for the day with their satellite campus in Irvine remaining open.
In the comments section please let us know how your neighborhood is doing and feel free to post stories of where you were when it happened. And again I hope that everybody is safe and doing well at this time.
