6:00 pm
jose. seven miles away from seven trees and it was at a depth of about half a mile. at 11:42 a.m. this morning, that is the one that probably most of you felt. there have been aftershocks, the latest at 5:20 at 2.8 and as we look at the total reports, 32 reports of not just the main earthquake event, but also those aftershocks. it was on the calaveras fault which is part of the san andreas fault and as we check out the intensity, did you feel it? the strongest of it was felt around the epicenter. it was anywhere from light to moderate. some areas of strong and we widen it out here, felt all the way to the sacramento valley out towards the sierra and down towards hundred miles away. it had the potential as a five to do property damage, moderate is a five. you would notice that. it is like a million pounds of explosives.
6:01 pm
we were fortunate. hopefully no bigger ones come later. dan: that is great perspective. thank you. home surveillance cameras and some people quick enough with their cell phones capture things shaking during the earthquake. at 6:00, anchor karina nova shows you some of those remarkable videos. karina: some people had heads up with the my shake at. some people had phone cameras ready enter to social media to share the trembling they felt and what they saw. this is video from inside stratford elementaries go. you can see the hanging artwork shaking. no kids were in that classroom but there was a teacher inside who reported this video and his reaction. -- who recorded this video and his reaction. >> earthquake. karina: short and to the point. in san jose, this ring camera caught some shaking from the earthquake. you can see the man run inside and some of the string lights moving around in that yard. at the tail end of this video,
6:02 pm
you can see why he was so concerned as he ran inside to pick up a young child. this is also video from a home in san jose. you can see the light fixtures here shaking. and here is a another light fixture, this is in san francisco. apparently that was the popular thing to record today. and share on social media during the earthquake. i mentioned, some people got an alert when that earthquake happened. you can download the my shake out for any warnings or information if there is an earthquake could if you have it, make sure you double check your settings to have the earthquake alerts on. live in the newsroom, karina nova abc7news. dan: i double checked mine a few minutes ago. thank you so much. ama: the national weather service checked for the possibly of a tsunami resulting from today's earthquake. we found there is no tsunami danger from the earthquake. as you heard earlier, lots of earthquakes today. the first one was the biggest, 5.1 that thousands felt at 11:42
6:03 pm
p.m.. all of the aftershocks were smaller and that is typical compared to seismologist dr. lucy jones. >> on average the largest aftershock to a 5.1 would be a 4.0. sometimes the 3.1 you've already had that could be the largest one. 5% of the time the aftershock will be larger than the initial shock. you had a 5% chance there could be a larger earthquake on the calaveras fault over the next few days. about half of our big earthquakes are preceded by some sort of shock and it's a 5% chance of something larger going forward. probably, you're just going to feel if you are down in the field, one or two earthquakes. in the berkeley bay area you probably will not feel anything. that is probably good ama: check this out. it is a seismograph. you can see today's earthquake on there and some big red lines. dan: the epicenter was in santa
6:04 pm
clara county, 12 miles east of san jose. reporter zach fuentes is live in campbell. you felt it, right? zach: we definitely did feel it at our bureau in san jose and they felt it right here in campbell. we are on east campbell avee,eye and so many people i spoke with are shocked at how different their day turned out to be. it was anything but a typical tuesday in the south bay. >> it was warm and beautiful and suddenly, i felt something weird, a rumble and then decided it was possibly going to be a big earthquake, so i took off into a doorway. >> i was at my desk working, i felt a big jolt. i turned to my coworkers and was like this is an earthquake. zach: people we spoke with tuesday afternoon at sharing similar experiences. the general consensus from them matches up with the science that this is the strongest earthquake we have felt in the last eight years or so. >> as i was pulling out, i felt
6:05 pm
the road on even. i did not really think anything except is there something wrong with my car, my tires? a couple minute leaders i got a text message saying did you feel the earthquake? zach: we had no reports of injury or damage, one restaurant owner we spoke with said the shaking did cause minor damage though. >> we were making for our restaurant and we felt a little bit of the shaking. a few bottles dropped off from the bar and the shelves. we realized it was an earthquake. zach: customers struggle to process what was happening in the moment. >> stuff falling off the shelf. and i just thought somebody had dropped something, a plate. that is what it sounded like. zach: in addition to the front of the bar, the owners say food on prep tables fell to the ground. this forcing them to rethink their set up. >> we have a big one room in the back and we have a lot of wine. yes, we need to place it in a different way so if something like that happens, i hope it
6:06 pm
doesn't happen, everything it can be replaced. zach: each person i spoke with, i asked him the question after today's events do you feel you are prepared for a bigger earthquake? each person admitted that the answer was no. i one of those people, so if anything, there was no damage today, no injuries and we need to take this moment i think to remember to be prepared the next big one. we have been warned today and we know living in the bay area. live in campbell, zach fuentes, abc7news. dan: it is so easy for us to get complacent around here. that was a good reminder. you felt the quake today, can you describe it? was a big jolt, a rolling sensation, how was it? zach: for couple different sensations were felt in the bureau appeared we're about to head out for an interview that we were supposed to do today but quake coverage took precedent. we felt two big jolts followed by more rapid, shorter movements. then followed by some kind of rolling that made the room feel like it was spinning.
6:07 pm
made me a little dizzy for a second. we are hearing the same from people throughout the south bay. we are able to laugh about it now of course because we now know that there have been no major damage or injuries. i will say it again, a good reminder for us to make sure that our households are prepared. dan: i'm so glad you said it again. great reminder. nice job rethink you so much. today's earthquake is the biggest in the area since the napa quake of 2014. you remember that one right? that measured 6.0 and struck at 3:20 in the morning on august when he thousand 13. one person was killed and two others injured. the most visible damage was in downtown napa. remember these images? brick façades crumble. one of the worst earthquakes in the bay area hit in 1989, obviously. that was the infamous quake. >> the marina is hard-hit, there are cracks everywhere. >> my god, look at that. the freeway has just completely collapsed. dan: i will never forget
6:08 pm
standing in the marina looking at the damage afterwards. the earthquake measured a magnitude 6.9 and left 3800 people injured, 63 dead, 16,000 homes uninhabitable. in april of 1984, a 6.2 magnitude earthquake struck near oregon hill not far from where zach is today. this footage captured the moment it hit. you can see glasses wobbling, hanging lamps swaying. people looking around. this earthquake caused $10 million in damage. ama: coming up, we will show you where and how people checked for damage today, even if it was not obvious. they had to make sure nothing was broken. sandhya: the earthquake alert system put to the test today, but was it fast enough? the chgeady underway. dan: we stayed on the air for hours on the quake hit this morning, bringing you live interviews with experts and people who felt it. you can find that video on her abc 7 bay area news app available wherever you stream available wherever you stream appear to take a moment have heart failure and still experience unresolved symptoms? heart failure and seemingly unrelated symptoms
6:09 pm
like carpal tunnel syndrome... ...shortness of breath... ...irregular heartbeat... ...and lower back pain could mean something more serious called attr-cm a rare, underdiagnosed disease that worsens over time, so it's important to recognize the signs. sound like you? call your cardiologist and ask about attr-cm.
6:10 pm
last week i stepped in a bear trap. i should really get rid of it. but... i'll make do.

6:12 pm
there was no major damage. in july, a magnitude seven earthquake in the same area killed at least five people and injured dozens. ama: if you do not have it you can download the app my shake, it is the states earthquake early warning system that delivers alerts to cell phones through an app developed at uc berkeley. news reporter stephanie sierra is digging into how effective it was today when the earthquake step -- struck the bay area. stephanie: as far as tests go the my shake app was not only effective but efficient. most people have it reporting on social media they got the notice before the quake hit. that is what the technology is designed to do, but experts are already looking at ways to detect the threat even faster. before an earthquake hits, every second counts. that is why the state rolled out the app called my shake in 20 to warn people with an alert on their cell phones before the ground starts shaking. professor richard allen is the director of uc berkeley's
6:13 pm
seismology lab where this app was developed. as luck would have it allen it happened to be giving an exam to 500 students when the 5.1 earthquake hit east of san jose. >> during the middle of the exam, all of our phones went off. everybody has the my shake app downloaded, so they get the early warnings. stephanie: he says his students received at most about a second or two notice before the ground started to shake. >> we will study pretty hard the feedback that we get from people are we alerting the right group of people that we needed to alert. a wider area or perhaps a smaller area? stephanie: the warnings are sent through the app. allen says the technology has been in the works for over the past decade, but has only been on the market for a few years. >> they test for the early warning system. stephanie: the bay area has been a training ground for quake alert systems. earthquake consultant ross says the best results provided a 10 second warning. >> can we create a system that
6:14 pm
gives us more than 10 seconds? probably not. because for the shaking to be really strong, the earthquake needs to be really close. if it is really close, then seismic waves, it is going to arrive soon with respect to our ability to identify that wave. stephanie: stein says new research is underway to advance that. >> which we do not just use seismometers in the ground that are dedicated to earthquake early warning. but we can use everybody's cell phone as another source of warning. stephanie: still, stein says the warning will always be in the ballpark of 10 seconds. a timeframe allen and his team are working towards. >> we live in earthquake country, we need to be ready for much larger earthquakes than this. stephanie: that is why the timeliness and accuracy of these alerts are crucial. to put it in perspective for you, the shaking will be 10 times stronger with a magnitude six quake and 100 times stronger with a magnitude seven quake. that is of course the big threat. allen says they are always prepared. ama: that is scary stuff.
6:15 pm
what did experts say about the likelihood of a magnitude seven quake following this one today? stephanie: you know, it's not good news. stein who is researching that exact question says it is not a matter of with, but when especially because where the quake today, the calaveras fault, one of our most because it connects to the hayward fault where we essentially have one very long fault. his point is if it ruptured together it could create a magnitude 7.5 quake and that of occurring on the most populated corridor of the bay area, stretching from oakland to hayward, san jose all the way to oregon hill. ama: thank you, stephanie. dan: cal fire officials felt the shaking at their station along the san mateo county coastline. firefighters checked for damage shortly after the quake rattled the building just north of half moon bay. there was no sign it, just like everywhere else, of any damage there. pg&e says all is clear at its locations as well.
