USS says between Hayward fault and the next big fault to its east. Is strike-slip, probably on the NW-SE plane, so right-lateral. Don't have much to say that you all don't already know.

Once again we lucked out...the quake occurred at about 3:20 AM...so most folks were at home. Saw photos of the outdoor wine bars, etc., now covered in bricks.

I was about 30 miles to the West in Guerneville on bedrock and first floor of a cabin. Felt ground beneath shaking. Earthquake waves had to go thru Rogers Creek Fault before they reached me so that dampened them. Didn't post as no cell service and I don't have Internet in Guerneville. And when I went into Santa Rosa a few hours after quake- Sprint cell coverage was down there(maybe earthquake related). Also- without radio either- so at first I thought it was 5 something from Geyers Geothermal area(which is closer)
