Earthquake this morning which woke me up but i was not overly concerned. I knew that it was between four and five mech so i went down and checked on everybody we were all good. Maybe you guys felt it more. I am a little bit closer to the epicenter than you are so we definitely felt it. The kids slept right through it and that is what a lot of people have said. Everyone but me slept through it. Maybe because i am a breaking news guy. We felt it for sure. My dog was definitely up. I remember in the mountains where it was located last time so i can tell the distance. So if you dont know where the epicenter was, it was in the Berkeley Hills near the claremont hotel. Allie rasmus is joining us live from berkeley with reaction from people who felt the shake. Reporter it has been easy to talk to people about this because everyone who lives in the area felt it.

It felt like a sharp jolt with a few shakes afterwards. I havent been able to go to sleep since. I felt the walkway shake. Like the metal on the walkway. You could hear rattling. Yeah.

Reporter the owner of dream plus donuts was already up and at
But it did frazzle some nerves. It was just a quick jolt. And then it just kind of shook for a minute and that was it. I just waited for it to be over. Reporter the seismology lab, earthquake Early Warning system sounded the alert this morning but because the epicenter was in berkeley the warning time was limited. The farther seismic waves travel, the longer the warning. The earthquake was right under berkeley. People in oakland would get one or two seconds of warning. In San Francisco about three seconds. Reporter seismologists here say even a second or two of warning is much better than none. Even with just a second or two every warning, everybody gets under a sturdy table we estimate we can half the numbers of injuries in an earthquake so thats a big reduction in the impact. Reporter seismologists at the usgs say theres the chance of bigger earthquakes could be coming. Statistically, every time we have an earthquake in california, theres a low probability of a larger earthquake foll
