I hear you got a bit of a rumbler today.  Everything OK on your end?

 

Geoff

Seriously!! All well your way?

agreed, I heard about that a little bit ago, I hope all of our northern cohorts rode it out safely!

Nothing other than a few things fell over in the medicine cabinet and a few pictures on the dresser. It got everyones attention but wasn't as dramatic as the news makes it out to be.

This is good to hear been wondering about you as well . I also have a few other friends your way that I have yet to be able to get hold of the last few days .

We had another little rumble last night 4.9 they refered to it as a readjustment. Its that time of year where everyone is busy winterizing their stuff and getting ready for the possibility of snow. Its also hunting season so lots of moose being processed.

We get more upset about traffic jams on the hiway! It is all relative to what your accustomed to in your daily life.

Deb and I didn't feel a thing, we were driving some of the critters to the vet's, it was vaccination day and we have enough critters any discount is a good thing. Vehicle suspension is designed to damp out motions just like a minor quake. We heard about it from Deb's sisters in Texas and S. Cal. Most of the damage done here was to things in construction, remodel, etc. temporary put it THERE spots. I guess there were some minor injuries, a couple broken bones.

 

We had a good jolt a week or so ago on a different fault line too. The hot speculation right now is about these maybe being precursor jolts.

 

All's well on the Frosty stead, critters got their shots and met new dogs, cats and people at the vet's. Nothing fell off anything, that 's noticeable anyway. I don't know who mentioned keeping most of their shop gear tools, etc. on the floor as earthquake abatement but my shop is so protected so nothing's amiss.

 

Awe, just another day living in the second most active seismic zone in the world. Even a good shaker doesn't hardly make good coffee shop conversation beyond stories about the BIG one.

Glad you and your's are all OK!

Huh, I did not know that.  You really *do* learn something new every day!  

According to the Alaska Earthquake Center in the past 22 hrs we have had 61 earthquakes that were registered on seismic transducers! They were all probably not felt by anyone. It would be interesting to know how many of these very small earthquakes happen in a non seismic active area.
