Hi Petra. Just thought you would like to know that on 05/19/1889 there was a 6.0M quake about 4 miles south of this quake.

Newspaper accounts at that time indicate that the area of greatest damage included the communities of Antioch, Clayton, and Collinsville where glassware and crockery were shaken from shelves and chimneys were toppled. The epicenter was most likely on the Antioch fault or on the northern end of Greenville-Mount Diablo fault.

On May 19, 1902, an earthquake of M 5.5 occurred near Elmira, Solano County. Chimneys were knocked down in Elmira and minor damage occurred in Vacaville and Fairfield.

One of the largest earthquakes known to have struck the San Francisco Bay area occurred on April 19, 1892 in the Vacaville-Winters area. Only the 1906 San Francisco earthquake was larger. This M 6.8 earthquake caused extensive damage to Vacaville, Winters, and Dixon it was followed 2 days later by another large event, a M 6.3 earthquake on April 21, 1892. The fault that caused these quakes is believed to have been the Great Valley fault.

Congrats on the good call. Take Care…Don in creepy town
