About 10 years ago during a minor earthquake in the California Bay Area, I happened to be on the phone with my girlfriend at the time who was in Mountain View, I was in San Jose. The conversation went something like: GF: "Oh! There's an earthquake!" Me: "What, no there isn-- Oh wow, there's an earthquake!" (few seconds of shaking) GF: "Okay, it's over" Me: "No it isn't, I stil feel-- Oh yeah, it's over!" I'd estimate the delay to have been ~2-3 seconds over ~20 miles -- but I don't remember where the epicenter was, or how deep the quake was.
