Magnitude 6.0 strike earthquake along the California-Nevada border

San Francisco: Earthquake with early Magnitude 6.0 strengthened the California-Nevada border on Thursday afternoon, with people who reported felt the shock of hundreds of miles away, according to a USGeology survey.
There are no direct reports of serious damage or injury.
The earthquake hit 3:49 a.m.
In the area around 250 miles (402 kilometers) east of San Francisco and South Lake Tahoe.
The episyaris is 4 miles (6.5 km) southwest walker, a California city of less than 900 residents.
It was followed by dozens of aftershocks, with at least half a dozen the magnitude of 4.0 or greater, said the USGS.
“ The land shakes very badly, and then everything starts falling, ” said Carolina Estrada, manager at the Walker coffee company.
Broken syrup bottle, the plate fell to the ground and the shop roof gave up a little.
Vibration lasts 30 seconds or more, he said.
“ We run out of the building, “Estrada said.
But the shock continues, and` `boulders the size of the car ” falls close to the US395, he said.
The cars were shocked by stones, but no one was injured, the California Highway Patrol reported.
At one point , Rockslides closes around 40 miles (64 km) from the interstate, the main route through Sierra Nevada North, said the authorities.
The part of the interstate was later reopened, but the crew remained at the scene in the event of a subsequent earthquake, according to the California Transportation Department.
At Nevada, Reno City Hall was evacuated, Mayor Hillary Schieve told Reno Gazette Journal.
“ It’s rather good, ” said Schieve.
The community around Lake Tahoe and as far as Southern As Fresno, California, felt an earthquake, which has a depth of 6 miles (9, 8 km).
It also feels as far as Las Vegas.
Episentrer is near the antelope valley error.
The earthquake was the largest recorded since the 6.1 earthquake hit the area in 1994.
Gem The PA is “ classic normal fault earthquake for eastern California, “ and aftershocks common in the region, seismologist Lucy Jones tweeted.
“ The people in the area must expect aftershocks for days after this size earthquake, ” said Jason Ballman with the center of the South California earthquake at the University of Southern California.
Reports of damage or injury may not be available for days because many shocks feel in remote areas, Ballman warns.
The preliminary report has shown two earthquakes that attacked 25 seconds but separated 100 miles (161 kilometers).
But the USGeology survey reviews shocks and removing an earthquake report of 4.8 in Farmington, about five miles (8 km) southeast of Stockton.
Uncertainty is caused by remote locations, which have fewer seismic instruments, said Austin Elliott, a USGS geologist.
“ This system underestimates the magnitude of the event and estimates a little location from the actual location, “he said.
When seismic waves move across the country, other stations misinterpret them as a separate earthquake because “they arrived at an unexpected time, said` Elliott.
Elliott also said the earthquake usually occurs throughout this error.
He quoted an earthquake of 5.8 which rocked the city of Sierra Timur Lone Pine last month and sent large stones crashing into Mt.
Whitney.
