Now Alaska is having small earthquakes 23:58 hours 2.9 and at 00:22 3.2 . Not huge ones but geeshhh....

I get cellphone reports on quakes in/near Alaska all the time. They've been having a lot of offshore 6-pointers in the last few weeks - somewhere in the vicinity of 10-12 of 'em over the last few weeks, if I remember rightly (I'd have to hit the USGS website to be sure, though). Small quakes there are like small quakes here in SoCal where I'm at - you don't even notice them. Heck, San Diego county has at least a dozen or so a day down on the Mexico border. :)

There was a rather interesting swarm of earthquakes along the Kuril Subduction zone last week, 3 over M6 I think, that runs northeast from Japan to Kamchatka in Russia - not in Alaska, though.
