Nearly two days after the southland experienced what was thought to be the "big one," Orange County residents felt something go bump in the night last night.
A 3.5 earthquake centered west of Petrolia rumbled the area Wednesday night, July 31, at about 7:30 p.m., according to the U.S. Geological Survey that lists a number of quakes in Southern California and Nevada. A 4.2 had hit the same area on Tuesday.
An aftershock of 3.0 near Yorba Linda occurred on Tuesday, caused by the Chino Hills 5.4 earthquake that rattled Southern California that same day.
According to the site, there have been 15 small-size earthquakes starting at 3.0 from July 25.
