On Monday, March 17, 2014 - St. Patrick's Day -- there was an earthquake in Los Angeles. Although the quake was measured at a 4.4-magnitude earthquake on the Richter scale, you can clearly see the impact on people during an earthquake.
There were at least six aftershocks, with the strongest being measured at a 2.7-magnitude temblor. Some fear that this quake could mark the end of the several year "earthquake drought" that the area has experienced. Below is a video of newscasters live when the earthquake hit.
The earthquake also made us recall the 2011 Japanese earthquake and Tsunami. All of Japan moved about 10 feet!
