Earlier today I was briefly scared out of my wits when a seismic wave passed beneath the Zooby brush shelter here in San Diego, and seemed to toss the whole place up unto the air a couple feet as it passed underneath.
Apparently the epicenter was about 50 miles away, out in the ocean to the southwest: (marked by a star)

5.7 richter, it was just the one big impulse, followed by decreasing trembling. Whenever this happens, I'm always on tenderhooks for a little while wondering if there is more coming.
The interesting thing with this one is that I was aware of a definite direction to it. It hit from behind me, went underneath, and continued on in the direction I happened to be facing.
