Thursday, February 4, 2010, Eureka, Calif. (HumboldtOnline) – A 6.0 magnitude earthquake hit the area at approximately 12:20 p.m. today, according to the USGS. The quake was centered in the Pacific Ocean almost due West of Petrolia. No damage has been reported thus far. The earthquake was very brief in duration and was barely felt in the city of Eureka. The exact time/location was 40.43°N 124.93°W and at a depth: 11km. The last major quake to hit the area last month was in roughly the same (but not exactly the same) area, at a depth of 10KM. The quake that hit Haiti shortly thereafter was also recorded at a depth of 10KM, spurring conspiracy theories that the two were actually somehow connected.
