2 Small Earthquakes Are Barely Noticed
Two barely noticed earthquakes, one of them an aftershock of the Landers quakes, rippled through parts of Southern California, including north Orange County, officials said.
A magnitude-3.3 aftershock of the 1992 quake hit at 1:56 p.m., seven miles north northeast of Barstow, according to Cal Tech seismologist Will Huston.
Earlier, a milder quake measuring 2.3 moved through Lakewood at 8:15 a.m. Saturday, part of a recent series of small quakes in that area, Huston said.
