Pretty big quake close to Yellowstone.

My first thought too   :-\

Pretty much the epicenter for MAGA, I’m given to understand.

Prof Willsey is a geology professor at a college in Southern Idaho. He has an excellent YouTube channel that focuses on geology. He just posted a video on the earthquake out there.

M4.9 earthquake rattles Western Idaho...

[Fledermaus]

What we know : the earth moves, under our feet. And we feel the sky tumbling down.

Not sure what the initial depth was. But:

“At 10:46 a.m., USGS stated there was a second 2.7 magnitude quake roughly six miles northwest of Smiths Ferry at a depth of around ten kilometers.”

The 10 km depth makes it more likely it was the good guys blowing up the child sex trafficking tunnels of the bad guys.

Not close at all, nor structurally connected. That part of Idaho is very active seismically and a 4+ is not that much out of the ordinary

Smith’s Ferry is 280 miles west of Yellowstone. Not exactly close.

4.9 is a minor. That would hardly know a picture off the wall in CA

[Disambiguator]

I didn’t feel anything, and I’m about 50 miles south of Smith’s Ferry.

[Billthedrill]

Not a quiver in northern Idaho, just a snowstorm. I blame the sun spots. That or evil spirits, and we have enough of those in DC.

[Vendome]

4.9?

i live one mile from San Andreas and a 4.9 is only going to make laugh...

Literally

We don’t even wake up for anything under a 5.

when there's no San Francisco,
shh, better get ready,
to tie off the boat in Idaho..."

Why is “East Idaho News” reporting on West Idaho News?

[Myrddin]

Pretty big quake close to Yellowstone.

The Yellowstone magma chamber extends far west under Idaho. This quake was over part of the chamber.
