Bay Area residents reported getting app alerts on the night of May 6 when a series of earthquakes were reported near Truckee, California. The largest of the quakes Thursday night registered as a preliminary 4.7 magnitude, with an epicenter 7.8 miles from Truckee, 27.1 miles from Reno, and several hours driving distance from cities like San Jose and San Francisco.
As of this morning, the California Governor's Office of Emergency Services said there were no reports of damages from Thursday's quakes, though Cal OES noted the events "offer an important and timely reminder" of why it's important to be prepared for future temblors.
