Tsunami Potential Threats - bttt
I wonder why Puerto Rico and Virgin Islands were advised 6 minutes later than everyone else? Just before 7 pm I heard a TV alert for PR saying a 7.6 quake. I was in a 7.5 in Mexico City in 1956. It lasted a minute. It felt like riding on the New York subway, swaying back and forth. Mexico City is built on a bed of mud, so the motion was different than land on hard rock and soil.
I also felt the Mineral, VA quake of 2011 which was 5.6 at Mineral, but only about 4.0 where I was. I was sitting on the edge of the bed when the walls began to shudder for about 15 seconds. There was some chimney damage in my neighborhood, although the DC National Cathederal and Washington MOnument had several $million in damage. Fun thought, the quake was near the North Anna Nuclear Plant that was built to a quake resistance of 6.0. Glad it was only 5.6, hmmm?
I kept a small bowl of water near my computer and several times I saw the water ripple, and in 10 minutes there would be a news report of an aftershock around 2.5. This went on for about 2 weeks.
