String of quakes near Concord rattles Bay Area

A swarm of four earthquakes — the strongest measuring at magnitude 4.0 — centered just south of Concord rattled the Bay Area on Sunday afternoon.
The U.S. Geological Survey reported the quake occurred about 3:13 p.m., with an epicenter half a mile south of Concord. The quake was about 9 miles deep and occurred on the Concord-Green Valley Fault, the USGS said.
In San Francisco, the initial quake felt like a quick jolt. Concord police said there were no reports of damage or injuries, but said people called in to ask about the quake.

I wish they'd do one on climate change; showing what the US will really look like.

My first thought was I can't wait for CinemaSins to do "Everything wrong with San Andreas in XX minutes or less".

All it needs is some amped up megasharks riding in on that tsunami.
