Amid the coronavirus lockdown, Los Angeles experienced a 3.7 magnitude earthquake on Wednesday.Â
As the Los Angeles Times reports, the earthquake hit at 12:03 a.m. PT, causing "light shaking" in South Los Angeles, Inglewood, Culver City, and the Los Angeles International Airport. The epicenter is estimated to be around half a mile southeast of Slauson and La Brea. The earthquake reportedly rattled dishes in homes and shook parked cars. The past ten days have already seen two earthquakes of magnitude 3.0 or greater hit the area.
While it wasn't strong enough to cause structural damage, it was enough to wake up some locals in bed. Twitter was flooded with L.A. citizens reacting to the earthquake, lamenting the awful timing.
