BREAKING: Following initial reports of two earthquakes, the USGS is now reporting just one occurred on Friday afternoon, a magnitude 5.7.
Previously it was reported that the first quake was quickly followed by a second one coming in at a magnitude of 5.6, closer to shore. Both quakes were very shallow, which amplified their effects, Reuters reported.
The USGS reported that the 5.7 quake occurred 36 miles (58 kilometers) west of Ferndale, California, around 12:50pm Pacific time.
No tsunamis are currently expected, according to AccuWeather.
