Residents across Los Angeles County experienced a sudden jolt late Friday night as a 3.7-magnitude earthquake struck Malibu, just days after experts warned of continued seismic activity in California.
Details of the Earthquake
The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) reported that the quake hit at 11:44 p.m. on February 14, with a depth of 15.3 km in the northwest Malibu area. While there were no immediate reports of injuries or structural damage, the tremor was widely felt across the region.
The earthquake occurred as Southern California grapples with mudslides and flooding following a powerful storm system that drenched the area in recent days.
