I know this is going back a ways, but can anyone remember what the Richter reading was for the 1964 Good Friday quake in either Anchorage or Juneau?

Doesn’t look like it’s far from Wasilla.I wonder if the Russians felt it from their front porches?

A 5.7 located 35 miles deep will be noticed by seismologists and maybe a can of beans on a store shelf, but I doubt it.

I know this is going back a ways, but can anyone remember what the Richter reading was for the 1964 Good Friday quake in either Anchorage or Juneau?The epicenter of this awesome quake was a mere 45 miles west of Valdez and 14 miles under the earth's crust. Initial shocks lasting over five minutes affected nearly all of the coastal communities of Alaska.
The magnitude of this quake measured 8.4 - 8.6 on the Richter Scale and was reported as a 9.2 Moment Magnitude (Mw).

Lasting nearly five minutes, it was the most powerful recorded earthquake in U.S. and North American history, and the third most powerful ever measured by seismograph. It had a moment magnitude of 9.2 and registered 8.4 on the Richter scale.[1]

Earthquakes are fictional beasts like unicorns and jobs. Until I feel one here in Michigan they don’t exist.

Somewhere around 8. I do remember the photos that came out of there at the time with the huge cracks in the ground, hard to forget.
