					<description><![CDATA[This morning (2/21/2020) at 5:42 am, a small earthquake struck the Castaic area north of Los Angeles. Just looking at the maps, it seems near the San Gabriel Fault but it is a somewhat complex area. It was also a very deep earthquake as they go, 18.1 km. Shaking was felt in a wide area &#8230; <a href="https://www.socalregion.com/m-3-5-near-castaic-ca/" class="more-link">Continue reading <span class="screen-reader-text">M 3.5 near Castaic, CA &#8211; Updated</span> <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a>]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[On January 21, 2020, just a few days after the 26th anniversary of the Mw 6.7 Northridge Earthquake, we had another small jolt strike the San Fernando Valley.
