Last evening we experienced a 6.1 earthquake in Sonoma/Napa Counties with the epicenter being American Canyon. We were awoken in the early AM with our home moving back and forth a few feet and Chandelier in our bedroom swinging back and forth.
We were concerned with the historic buildings downtown #Petaluma knowing they have been earthquake retrofitted in the pasts. So we drove downtown and looked over the historic buildings and fortunately there is no apparent visible outside damage to the building. We did walk through this historic Herold Building on Kentucky Street and did not see any visible structural damage to the inside of that building.
So while many were affected by this earthquake, mostly in the American Canyon and Napa area, our historic downtown seems unaffected.
Click here to some YouTube Videos of the earthquake caught on tape that were recently released that shows what people were awoken to last night.
