A swarm of small earthquakes continued to occur overnight in the Big Bear Lake area.
More than a dozen quakes were recorded in the last 12 hours in the San Bernardino Mountains region, most of them small. No damage or injuries were reported.
Another swarm of small quakes hit the Santa Monica Bay on Monday, including a 3.6 and 3.7 temblor. Those quakes were felt by thousands of people, according to the U.S. Geological Survey.
Massive Earthquake to Strike Southern California in Ten Minutes
The Big Bear quake swarm produced smaller quakes. The first quake hit about 1:30 p.m. Monday a few miles north of Big Bear City. That registered magnitude 3.2. The second quake hit about 10 minutes later, and registered 3.1.
Hundreds of people reported feeling those quakes.
The latest recorded quake in in the Santa Monica Bay was Monday night, registering 1.9. More than 3,500 people told the USGS they felt the Monday afternoon 3.7 temblor.

Recent earthquakes in Southern California
Massive Earthquake to Strike Southern California in Ten Minutes
a Scientist working with the US Geological Survey (USGS) disclosed that Southern California will be hit by a massive earthquake in about 10 minutes.
"The earthquake will hit just outside Los Angeles", said USGS scientist Frank Albany. "I recommend everyone evacuate now before the quake hits!"

Albany suggested the quake will be in the 8.8 to 9.3 range thus making it the worst earthquake ever recorded in California history and would surpass the recent earthquakes in Haiti and Chile. The epicenter of the quake will be in Fullerton, CA which is close enough to LA to cause massive destruction and chaos. Albany claims that the tectonic plates 11 miles beneath the Earth are moving even as we speak.
"If we all get out of the buildings now and find a safe place everything should be OK!" Albany declared.
Some scientists interviewed expressed skepticism with Albany's claim. "He told you that 20 minutes ago and there's still no earthquake!", said UCLA geological scientist Paul Rampart. "I'm sure there will be an earthquake sometime but no one can tell you when!"
"It will be in TEN MINUTES!" insisted Albany. "Give or take".

Earthquake Los Angeles
Los Angeles Shook By Minor Earthquake
A magnitude 3.6 quake struck off the coast of Santa Monica, Calif. early this morning, waking residents across the L.A. area but causing no injuries or damage.
A small undersea earthquake has struck off Santa Monica and was widely felt in the West Los Angeles area.
The U.S. Geological survey says the 3.6-magnitude temblor hit at 2:17 a.m. PDT Monday and was centered about four miles west of Redondo Beach at a depth of 8 miles.
The USGS website recorded hundreds of hits from respondents saying they felt the quake -- mainly people in oceanfront communities but some from central Los Angeles about 20 miles east.
A Santa Monica police spokesman said he felt a "very brief and mild jolt," but had not received any calls from the public.
Christopher Knight, a Scottsdale, Ariz., resident visiting in Marina del Ray, says the jolt lasted about a second. "It was very short shift from left to right."
Scientists say quakes of this magnitude, while often felt, are generally not strong enough to cause injury or damage
