I live in the Ogden area and felt it just as I was getting out of bed this morning at 7:10. I haven’t heard any reports of I-15 being damaged. I’m teleworking for the next 2 weeks due to the virus. I went out at noon to pick up lunch (called in a to-go order, school age daughter and wife are home, too) and I didn’t see any road damage. Weirdly, there was a news helicopter circling a wide area of Ogden and Riverdale, no idea what that was about.

I felt a 4.6 aftershock about half an hour ago, there’s been about 30 aftershocks, nearly all of them 2.6-2.7 magnitude. There was a 4.4 this morning that got people unnerved again.

The epicenter was about a mile from the SLC airport, they reported structural damage in one concourse with a broken water line, all inbound flights were diverted, all outbound flights were grounded, and they closed the roads coming into the airport. The airport just reported to local news that the water line has been fixed, the damage isn’t a show-stopper, and they’re just starting up operation again now.

Thank you for the updated report. We have adult kids and their children in Syracuse & Hooper.

Bless you and take care. I was in the ‘89 SFO quake. These things can be upsetting.
