Early morning earthquake felt across Southern California

A moderate earthquake was felt across Southern California early Thursday, Jan. 25.
According to the Southern California Earthquake Data Center, the temblor, measured at magnitude 4.0, struck at 2:09 a.m. about 8 miles northeast of Trabuco Canyon, which would place the epicenter near Temescal Valley.
Around the time of the quake, both the north- and southbound Temecula Parkway off-ramps from the 15 Freeway in Temecula were closed to traffic due to a construction crew rupturing a gas line, according to CHP logs, but it was unknown if the incident was quake-related.
Many Southern Californians took to social media to share that they had felt the shaker.
