Reporter good evening to you we appreciate it this quake 5. 1 would be considered a moderate quake. Certainly enough to produce some daniel. Put it in perspective in terms of scale. Okay. This is indeed a moderate quak quake. Felt widely throughout Northern California. And it is one of the largest we mve seen in that particular area in the last, say, 30 years. So its a fairly significant event but item very remote. The nearest city that we have are glen haven, lucerne and upper lake and these are very small communities in Northern California and therefore we are not expecting a great deal of damage. Reporter thats encourag encouraging. Very interesting dale. That it has been about 30 years since you had a quake of this magnitude in that particular area. Is that about the time frame that you you would expect an event of that size on this type of fault, or on this fault. What fault is it do you know. I dont know the particular fault but im sure you remember a couple years ago about the same time of year there was the lower napa valley quake and it was also of a similar magnitude the daniel was far far greater than what we are expectinghf from this. Reporter sure i was up there reporting at thtime. Dale, there have been a couple of after shock that were felt. 2. 7 or so being the larger. Should folk in that area expect after shocks for the next several days. For quake this size and this shallow, you could expect smaller after shocks to go on for a matter of couple weeks. But we would expect them to be smaller and that is our expectation at this time. Reporter okay one last question i always ask this i franklyv probably know the jtk wants to. L know.
