Read full article: California may need to brace for another earthquakeCNN Video(CNN) - A powerful 6.4 earthquake and a series of more than 170 aftershocks terrified California residents Thursday and there may be another strong quake coming soon. Trona, an unincorporated community, "sustained varying degrees of damage" but no injuries were reported, according to San Bernardino County Fire's verified Twitter account. The strongest quakes in Southern CaliforniaThe last time Southern California saw such a forceful quake was nearly 20 years ago, when the 7.1 Hector Mine quake shook the Mojave Desert.
