Answer:
A powerful magnitude 7.1 temblor rocked Southern California at 8:19 PT on July 5, 2019, just 34 hours after a magnitude 6.4 earthquake hit the same region. This is the largest in decades, with the last temblor this large—the magnitude 7.1 Hector Mine earthquake—striking the Mojave Desert in 1999.
This latest event was widely felt, causing several fires and damage to buildings and roads in Ridgecrest and nearby, but reports on the impacts are still emerging. Aftershocks are expected to continue, with a 27 percent chance that as many as two earthquakes of magnitude 6 or higher could occur within the next week.
