Three Earthquakes Shake Along Peninsula in 2 Days

Did you feel any of the earthquakes?

Three tiny earthquakes made waves on the Richter scale along the northern part of the peninsula over the last week, with the largest measured at just 1.5 offshore, northwest of Daly City. 

Generally, earthquakes that fail to break the 2-mark on the scale are difficult to feel far from the epicenter. As of Monday afternoon, no one reported feeling any of the earthquakes on the Geological Survey website.

See the chart below for times, locations, etc. of the seismic events.
