Northern California's Humboldt County was hit by a 6.4 magnitude earthquake.
A major earthquake jolted Northern California people awake, disrupted electricity to hundreds, and damaged buildings and roads early Tuesday.
At 2:34 a.m. local time, a magnitude 6.4 earthquake hit a little town called Ferndale, located approximately 210 miles northwest of San Francisco.
The epicenter was located around 10 miles offshore at a depth of approximately 10 miles. Multiple aftershocks ensued.
Widespread damage to roads and residences was recorded, but no fatalities as of the time of this report.
Part of California's far north coast, the area has redwood forests, mountains, a port, and a state university. It has few people living there.

The county sheriff's information specialist, Samantha Karges, stated in an email that two persons were hurt but that they were both expected to make full recoveries.
Ferndale also received an earthquake in 1992 which was of 7.3 magnitude and was continued for 2-3 minutes.
California had two of its largest earthquakes on June 28, 1992.
