If you live on the coast please be aware and if close to shore please pay attention to any weather updates and such. May end up being nothing at all but would rather people be aware and be careful.

No injuries as quake strikes off California

(CNN) -- A major earthquake rumbled off the coast of northern California Tuesday night, about 300 miles northwest of Sacramento, according to the U.S. Geological Survey Web site.

There were no immediate reports of damage or injuries.

The magnitude 7.0 quake struck at 7:51 p.m. (10:51 p.m. EDT) and was located roughly 90 miles offshore, just south of the California-Oregon state line.

A tsunami warning was issued a short time after the quake but was later canceled.

Lens just broke into tone loc's concert and said we were all facing the wrath of the gods because we haven't accepted xxx tld.

As a voluntary show of goodwill he has exorcised the tsunami and the eathquake and promises to keep us all safe if we come to lens as sheep an just accept xxx tld as a good thing.
