Here’s a 7.8 on the San Andreas from OC near the LA County border (in real time too)

Though it could be as large as 8.3 when it happens.

Ground is not supposed to do that

Definitely don’t want to be at Knotts on a ride when this happens

Only supposed to be around intensity 8 for me

Not 9+

I say “only”, but that’s pretty bad shaking

Anything above intensity 5 can be damaging in some ways

Same, around intensity 8 for me.

Bolsa Ave. would take most of it

Looks like KLAX wouldn’t be too badly damaged

Interesting how the mountains (especially the Santa Ana Mountains) dull the waves out, and then they increase again rolling off the west sides
