Stay with @nbcbayarea for the latest,\u201d another stated.<\/p>\n<p>What to know about San Ramon earthquakes<\/p>\n<p>San Ramon has experienced a series of intermittent earthquakes over the last month. According to a Chronicle analysis of USGS data from last month, the region surrounding the East Bay city recorded 87 quakes with a magnitude of 2 or higher between last November and December. Seismology experts note that the Tri-Valley has a history of earthquake swarms, which occur when multiple earthquakes repeatedly affect a confined area.<\/p>\n<p class=\"content \">According to Michigan Tech, earthquakes with a magnitude between 2.5 and 5.4 are frequently felt but seldom result in significant damage. Most people do not feel earthquakes that register below 2.5 in magnitude. <\/p>\n<p class=\"content \">The abrupt and swift shaking caused by earthquakes can lead to fires, tsunamis, landslides, or avalanches. <\/p>\n<p class=\"content \">While they can occur in any location, they are most prevalent in Alaska, California, Hawaii, Oregon, Puerto Rico, and Washington, according to the Department of Homeland Security.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"A series of earthquakes occurred near San Ramon on Monday morning, according to the United States Geological Survey.&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":161348,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[34],"tags":[78335,78334,143,145,144,976,101,78332,78333],"class_list":{"0":"post-161347","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-oakland","8":"tag-earthquake-san-ramon","9":"tag-earthquakes-today","10":"tag-oakland","11":"tag-oakland-headlines","12":"tag-oakland-news","13":"tag-richmond","14":"tag-san-francisco","15":"tag-san-ramon-earthquake","16":"tag-san-ramon-earthquake-just-now"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/161347","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=161347"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/161347\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/161348"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=161347"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=161347"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=161347"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
