There was a M3.6 quake in the Big Bear City sequence early this morning, at 2:01 am. It’s epicenter was located 3 miles north of Big Bear City. I don’t see any “felt reports” yet, but it probably was felt.
We also had a M2.9 in the Death Valley area (3 miles northwest of Stovepipe Wells) last night at 9:14 pm. We don’t have any reports on that one, either.
