A 5.7 or 6.0 magnitude earthquake rattles American Canyon and Napa Valley at 3:20 am on Sunday morning.
Some wine bottles must have been shakin’ up in Napa. Down here in Silicon Valley we just felt some mild shaking, but nothing fell down and shattered. Yet. Internet and power still running fine down here. Until The Big One.
Hope everyone is OK up in Napa County and the vicinity. Reports of several thousand power outages and broken glass up in Napa. Highway 37 is damaged in Santa Rosa and some brick buildings in Napa are destroyed. Highway 121 in Sonoma is currently shutdown due to possible pavement buckling from the quake. Gas leaks are being reported as well as fires in the Napa area. Shops in Vallejo are cleaning up broken glass and damaged brick walls. Looks like the #NapaQuake is the biggest we’ve had in the Bay Area in quite a while. Actually this is the largest quake to hit the Bay Area since the 1989 Loma Prieta quake. Stay safe and don’t touch anything sparking.
Now USGS is showing the Napa Quake as a 6.1 magnitude quake and with a quake of this magnitude aftershocks are expected. Maybe in hours or maybe over weeks. We just don’t have the quake prediction capability as of yet.
Safeway in American Canyon is bleeding wine after the strong earthquake.
And the Napa Hall of Justice has been damaged in the quake.
