SAN FRANCISCO (Reuters) - A moderate earthquake struck near the coastal city of Eureka in Northern California on Tuesday but there were no immediate reports of damage.
The magnitude 5.2 quake occurred at 8:03 p.m. (0303 GMT on Wednesday) 35 miles east of Eureka and was felt across the region from the Pacific Ocean to near the Oregon border, the U.S. Geological Survey reported on its website.
Nearly an hour later, the dispatch officer for the Eureka Police Department said she had not received any reports of damage.
The area north of San Francisco is lightly populated, and about 10,000 people were exposed to light or moderate shaking, the USGS said.

Oregon had several more earthquakes over the w/e.......I haven't felt any of them. The bed was bouncing up and down the other night, but that had nothing to do with nature.:zen

Ok, I guess I should have clarified that statement ......I've just been told that all that activity in the bed, is certainly normal in nature, especially the end result!
I should have said that the bouncing had no bearing from natural external forces.................does that help?
