US: California failing to fund early warning system that sensed SoCal earthquake

"California’s early earthquake warning system worked as seismologists hoped it would, giving them notice that a quake was about to strike seconds before the ground in Los Angeles began shaking Monday. But residents didn’t get that warning because the state hasn’t identified a source of funding to complete and maintain the warning system," according to CBS San Francisco. CalTech seismologist Lucy Jones told CBS that once the system is fully implemented, the Los Angeles aarea could get up to thirty seconds warning before a major earthquake hits along the San Andreas Fault.
