3.7-Magnitude Earthquake Shakes Malibu Area, Felt Across Los Angeles and Ventura Counties

A 3.7-magnitude earthquake struck the Malibu area late Friday night, with shaking felt across parts of Los Angeles and Ventura counties. The quake occurred at approximately 11:44 p.m., according to the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS). The epicenter was located about 6.8 miles northwest of Malibu and 8.4 miles from Westlake Village, at a depth of 9.5 miles. Tremors were reported in several cities, including Thousand Oaks, Oxnard, Simi Valley, Port Hueneme, and as far east as Whittier in Los Angeles County.

Residents in the affected areas took to social media to share their experiences, with some describing the shaking as noticeable but brief. No injuries or significant damage were reported following the quake. The Malibu region has faced a series of extreme weather events this year, adding to concerns about natural disasters in the area.

This earthquake follows a series of recent seismic activities in California, including a 3.7-magnitude quake near Hayward in the Bay Area earlier in the week. While the tremor was relatively mild, it serves as a reminder for residents to remain prepared for potential larger earthquakes in the future.
