7.7 mag earthquake somewhere off BC last night? Rev, Saf, Tedy.......come in please! Who else am I missing? Damage reports not in yet....tsunami warnings issued. Looking at Rand McNally maps as I type this......flip, flip, flip.....Queen Charlotte Island area in north BC. Hope all our wagon friends are ok?
I was puttering around down stairs last nite and I noticed feeling my feet kinda vibrating for maybe 10-15 seconds but heard no sound and nothing moved or shook. Could not have been a minute later the radio inturpted the music and anounced the quake, the warnings, and that they still did not know about damage.... It does apear that although a strong "shake", it was located in a part where little damage happened. tsunami warnings were canceled around 3AM, but our local news reported some really bigs waves crashing shore lines as far as Alaska Quote.... Residents as far away as Alberta and Yukon reported feeling the earthquake. http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/british-columbia/story/2012/10/28/bc-earthquake-witnesses.html Thi is a good news report http://www.globaltvbc.com/powerful+...+tsunami+warning+issued/6442742414/story.html http://www.ctvnews.ca/canada/canada...es-b-c-coast-triggers-tsunami-fears-1.1013869 Location....
Glad you guys ended up lightly shaken, and not stirred at all! Let's hope the earth stops moving and stays that way!
I nearly forgot. That's the place that is slowly sinkin into the ocean or becoming another Hawiian island. Getting sorta worried. No Canadian reports or comments coming in here. ??????????
We are the Canadian California...... just waiting for the island to sink when the real big one hits. We on the island get and feel quakes now and then, I really found it od this time that I felt something but it was all it's own. Every other time we have had a ratlle over the years you can hear it coming....kinda like the sound of a rumbling train.....
We were just south of the border in a WA State campground with 33 other vintage trailers celebrating halloween. Given this happened about the time the folks were going through our groups (two groups, each had a night to trick / treat the other group) "Tent Of Terror" they must have thought we had coordinated the earth movement to tie in with the guillotine, the electric chair and the Jason look-alike. I suspect though that more thought it was a result of their than anything else. We actually did not realize that there was a real event until we got home tonight.
I sorta figured you were galavantin around with that trailer trash again. Sometimes it pays to be unsteady on your feet. Glad everyone there is and was safe. It might be a good idea to put me on your will for that old Safari wagon soon. Not that I want anything spooky happening to you. But we should keep it in the family. Welcome home.
well..at about 8;20...my woman said...."did the earth move for you too??" ..... apparently...Im that good !!!!. ....ok...truth?....her, I and the kid were watching Madagasgar III never noticed a thing....and were only 2 miles from the ocean.... its the only thing holding us stable Im calling this week...to get a full report
