A trio of Southern California earthquakes have struck in the area of Newport Beach and Costa Mesa in the last two days, with a pair rumbling late Thursday afternoon.
The first earthquake Thursday, at 4:52 p.m., occurred along the Newport Beach-Costa Mesa border. The magnitude 3.6 temblor shook near Irvine Avenue and where Westcliff Drive in Newport Beach transitions into East 17th Street in Costa Mesa. That was followed by a magnitude-3.4 aftershock at 5:04 p.m., with an epicenter about three-fifths of a mile to the southeast, beneath the residential street of Somerset Lane, a few blocks from Upper Newport Bay.
The Newport-Inglewood fault has long been considered one of Southern California’s top seismic danger zones because it runs under some of the region’s most densely populated areas, from the Westside of Los Angeles to the Orange County coast. The last major quake on that fault occurred in 1933 — the magnitude-6.4 Long Beach earthquake. The 1933 quake left nearly 120 dead and caused $40 million in property damage. There have been a number of felt earthquakes across the region in the past week.
