Reports have emerged from California on Friday night that an even bigger, longer-lasting earthquake has trembled. Reports of a 7.1 magnitude earthquake has shaken the Golden State just one day after the 6.4 tremor shook things from Los Angeles to Las Vegas.
An earthquake was reported again in the same region halfway between the two large cities, sending notice to residents.
The Los Angeles Times reported at 8:20 p.m. PT that a 7.1-magnitude quake was felt in Ridgecrest, California.
In that area of the epicenter, there have been more than 117 quakes that registered greater than 3.0, according to The Times.
