Magnitude 6.5 earthquake hits off Northern California coast. A powerful magnitude 6.5 earthquake rocked the Northern California coast Thursday morning. The quake occurred under the Pacific Ocean about 100 miles west of Ferndale, near the Oregon border, about 6:50 a.m., the U.S. Geological Survey said. There were no reports of injuries or damage.
In the meantime, areas north of Los Angeles may be long overdue for a whopper of a quake along a portion of the San Andreas fault, according to a second study, this from the U.S. Geological Survey. Over the past 1,200 years, large earthquakes occurred there about every 100 years. The last big one there was a magnitude-7.7 to 7.9 in 1857.
