We’re experiencing more quakes than the average for the past 20 years, but 2024 isn’t out of the ordinary when the past 90 years are taken into account.
If it seems there have been more and bigger earthquakes in Southern California recently, it’s because there have been more.
There have been about five earthquakes per year of 4.0 or greater in Southern California over the past 20 years. Many residents reported a rolling sensation that lasted for several seconds. In Pasadena, close to the quake’s epicenter, a water line ruptured as a result of the quake at Pasadena City Hall, and water could be seen pouring out of a pipe on the building’s exterior. Employees mostly evacuated the building but began going back inside around 1:15 p.m.
