Earthquake off the Coast of Washington?

Was there a 5.1 magnitude earthquake off the coast of Washington in the past hour? It shows up on the earthquake monitor but I can't find any news at all...?

[pgyanke]

Weird.

[umgud]

Musta been more than 5.1 if you felt it in NC.

[DonkeyBonker]

Is California still there?

[pgyanke]

It’s just strange. I can find notes on the 3.2 that occurred in the last day or so in southern CA but nothing on a 5.1 off the coast of WA. And, no, I never claimed I felt it.

Unforunately, yes. Your dreams of ocean front property in Nevada will have to wait a little longer.

[djf]

Short answer, yes. Seismogram display from Western Washington.

Here in Iowa I haven’t spotted the Pacific yet..

Yes. And about 30 more earthquakes between 2 and 5 something in the last day, around the world.

We are domed.

Run it. A multitude of controls, and can see the whole WORLD at once.

For such a small program, it is awesome.

5.1 off the West Coast. Yup. Shows up on my Wolton’s Earthquake 3D. Recommend it if you like checking out earthquakes.

Just the debris floating in from Japan shifting around. That’s all.

Most areas in the Ring of Fire had been hit with a biggie;
except the CA-OR-WA-CAN-AK area.

whale farts during the migration...

Didn’t feel thing downtown on the 22nd floor.

But I’m a native Californian. I don’t look up unless it’s over 6.0.

Remarkable app. Thanks for the tip.

[Timber Rattler]

Dunno, but a friend of mine in Melbourne, Australia reported that they had a 5.5 earthquake last night, with minor property damage there.

Is Moochelle in Washington? Was it the east or west coast??

[pgyanke]

Earthquake 3D is what I’m running.
