From Chula Vista to Los Angeles, residents reported feeling the shakings of an earthquake. NBC 7’s Sheena Parveen has more.
From Chula Vista to L.A., some residents said they could feel -- and were even woken up by -- two earthquakes that struck hours apart off the coast of San Clemente Island early Wednesday morning.
The U.S. Geological Survey reported the first quake at 3:47 a.m. -- eight miles off the coast of San Clemente Island, and roughly 70 miles from San Diego’s coast.
It had a preliminary magnitude of 4.3.
Three hours later, the agency reported a second earthquake, with the same magnitude, that struck a mile away from the first.
“One good thing would be that the island would be the buffer in between the earthquake and of course our area,” NBC 7 Meteorologist Sheena Parveen.
No tsunami warnings have been issued, and there have been no reports of damage.
