This is the second time in a month where someone, here on DU, has reported an earthquake of note and it doesn't show on the USGS map. There was one in Jamaica a couple ago but it wasn't on the USGS latest quake map that updates every minute, or it used to.

False alarm, according to the San Francisco Chronicle.

False alarm?
