It was pretty intense. Have felt many quakes, a lot of 5s and this felt stronger than a 5.2 here in Aguanga. Dogs freaked out and the last one they did that for was the 7.4 at China Lake.

Mira Mesa...felt that one a LOT. Big rumble, windows/house shook,heard and felt it...like a huge truck going by but could tell it was not that, large rumbling/shaking for a few seconds-lightened for a couple of seconds-then intensified again for a couple of seconds. Woke me up suddenly, barely phased my dog on the bed but grabbed him and went into doorway quickly. Praying for no or much smaller aftershocks. That one was the most unnerving one I've felt for some reason.
