The 4.7 magnitude earthquake struck near Malibu, California, and was felt over a wide area, including Orange County, highlighting the region's susceptibility to seismic activity.
According to the U.S. Geological Survey, the quake was centered just 4 miles north of Malibu and occurred at a depth of about 7 miles.
California's Governor's Office of Emergency Services is actively monitoring the situation post-earthquake and assessing potential damage following a 4.4 magnitude quake just last month.
This year alone has seen several significant quakes in Southern California, notably one in August that felt across a large swath from Los Angeles to San Diego.
