WRIGHTWOOD, Calif. - A magnitude 4.2 earthquake hit San Bernardino County early Tuesday, sending shudders across the region, authorities said.

The quake occurred at 1:53 a.m. and was centered about three miles north of Wrightwood, a remote community about 80 miles northwest of Los Angeles, the U.S. Geological Survey said on its Web site.

The quake was strong enough to wake people as far away as the north Los Angeles suburb of Glendale.

Bonnie Curtis, a dispatch supervisor with the San Bernardino County Fire Department, said there were no immediate reports of damage or injuries.

I've been through TWO 4.2 earthquakes. Tad scary. BUT, according to YDT Californication is probably FINALLY going to break off the default line and slip into the ocean. THANK YOU AL GORE for bringing it to our attention. No, wait, I've been hearing that since I was a kid in the 1970's. :lmao

I lived in SF for 3 years without any major events but we did have a couple of decent tremors. Loads of fun.
