Magnitude 3.3 earthquake reported Sunday

THIS STORY HAS BEEN UPDATED BASED ON NEW USGS DATA.

 

THE GEYSERS, Calif. – A 3.3-magnitude earthquake was reported early Sunday evening near The Geysers geothermal steamfield.

 

Originally the US Geological Survey reported that two earthquakes measuring 3.2 in magnitude occurred just eight seconds apart at 5:54 p.m.

 

However, the agency later upgraded one quake to 3.3 and the report of the second quake was deleted from the earthquake log.

 

The quake's epicenter was located two miles north of The Geysers, four miles west of Cobb and seven miles west northwest of Anderson Springs, survey data showed.

 

The report showed it took place at a depth of 1.7 miles.

 

The US Geological Survey received a total of seven shake reports from seven zip codes – Fremont, Hayward, Berkeley, Mill Valley, Saratoga, Cloverdale and Laytonville.

 

A 3.0-magnitude quake was reported in the Anderson Springs area on Feb. 4, as Lake County News has reported.
