I'm in Sherman Oaks, CA. I felt a sudden and very quick jolt/rumble in my bedroom. The wall of my bedroom (facing the street), along with the window, shook. It almost felt like a car had crashed into the side of the building but I could tell it was a quake. It was very abrupt and brief (about 2 seconds).
