A 6.4-magnitude earthquake shakes parts of Northern California

A 6.4-magnitude earthquake shook parts of northern California early Tuesday, the US Geological Survey said, waking people up and leaving thousands without power.

No injuries were reported immediately after the quake, which occurred at 2:34 a.m. near Ferndale, a small community about 210 miles (345 kilometers) northwest of San Francisco and close to the Pacific coast.

In the aftermath of the quake, more than 70,000 customers in the surrounding area were reported without power, according to poweroutage.us, which tracks outages across the country.

Ferndale resident Caroline Titus posted a video of her dark home of battered furniture and smashed dishes.

“Our house is a 140 year old Victorian. The north/south shaking is very evident as it fell,” she wrote on Twitter.

“It was great,” she said in another tweet.

The Humboldt County Sheriff’s Office wrote on Twitter that a tsunami was not expected.

KRCR-TV reported that police in Ferndale were helping to seal a bridge that the California Highway Patrol reported had cracks. Some gas leaks have also been reported.

The quake came just days after a small 3.6-magnitude quake struck the San Francisco Bay Area, waking thousands of people up before 4 a.m. Saturday and causing minor damage.

The epicenter of this earthquake was in El Cerrito, about 16 miles (25 kilometers) drive from downtown San Francisco.
