A magnitude 4.1 quake rocked part of Southern California near Yorba Linda Wednesday around 1:30 p.m. PDT.
The quake was relatively shallow, with a depth of only 8.8 kilometers, reported the U.S. Geological Survey.
"It was a little shake for me for a second and that was it. A quick jolt," said AccuWeather Expert Senior Meteorologist Ken Clark, in Rancho Cucamonga, California.
The quake was reportedly felt as far as Los Angeles, however.
"It was felt in Los Angeles, but it's hard to tell how widespread it was felt. Certainly it reached out to me and, I heard from a friend, Seal Beach felt it."
No damages have been reported at this time.
