4.4 magnitude quake strikes off SoCal coast
A 4.4 magnitude earthquake struck off the Southern California coast early Monday morning.
The temblor struck 61 miles south of Avalon and 69 miles west-southwest of San Diego at 2:44 a.m., according to the U.S. Geological Survey’s event page.
No injuries or damage from the quake, which struck at a depth of more than 13 miles, were reported.
An interactive USGS map shows shockwaves extended into San Diego, Orange and Los Angeles counties.
This is the third earthquake with a 4.1 magnitude or higher to hit Southern California in January.
A 4.1 magnitude quake struck near Rancho Palos Verdes on New Year’s Day and a 4.2 hit near Lyttle Creek less than a week later in the San Gabriel Mountains.
Tens of thousands of earthquakes are recorded in California each year; however, the vast majority of them are extremely minor. Only about 15 to 20 are greater than magnitude 4.0, according to the USGS.
