Photos Of The Earthquake That Rocked Alaska On Friday by DoggoneDogg: 9:29am On Dec 03, 2018 |
Back-to-back earthquakes measuring 7.0 and 5.7 cracked highways and rocked buildings Friday in Anchorage and the surrounding area, sending people running into the streets and briefly triggering a tsunami warning for islands and coastal areas south of the city. No tsunami arrived, and there were no reports of deaths or serious injuries. Aftershocks Saturday continued to fray nerves. U.S. Geological Survey Geophysicist Paul Caruso said there have been 545 aftershocks, including the 5.7 magnitude shaker that came almost immediately after Friday’s big quake. Eleven have had magnitudes of 4.5 or greater. (AP) ![]() A stranded vehicle lies on a collapsed roadway near the airport after an earthquake in Anchorage, Alaska, U.S. November 30, 2018.

Here in my country, a committee will b set up and dey'll go and visit d scene of a "tremor" and right there on d spot without any equipment and technical analysis decide tectonic plates are shifting and it is caused by sinking boreholes and blasting rocks.. 1 Like |
