You can click on this image in the ALERTS box to be taken to the details of the earthquake which triggered this alert. This is a fully automated system which updates every 10 minutes.

BPF, we installed those for Alertwildfire.org, who works with SCE and other fire agencies for early detection of wildfires, but it's not actually SCE. We've put up 6 at the resorts and will be expanding with a few more around the Big Bear Valley. [Click Here]
