@USGS_Quakes Can it please swarm during the day so alerts don’t wake me up lol
@USGS_Quakes One of the reasons I want functional immortality is to watch the Pacific's waters fill the Central Valley in the next myear or two.
@USGS_ShakeAlert @USGS_Quakes @Cal_OES @CAGeoSurvey Yes, I felt it in downtown San Diego. I received the Shake Alert via the SD Emergency app, which was audible enough to wake me up 30-45 seconds before the shaking 👍🏾. So cool to see that it worked!
@USGS_Quakes Here, you guys should have one of these. Sincerely, the West Coast
@USGS_Quakes Off the coast of Cape Canaveral Florida isn't exactly known as earthquake territory. Last night's quake goes to show they can happen almost anywhere.
@USGS_Quakes great graphic! more sharable!!! (better than just words) excellent.
My Zip Code is included in the @USGS_Quakes “Did You Feel It?” map
@USGS_Quakes Thankfully no damage to the house we were living in, but yeah it was kind of weird to find out the earthquake epicenter was so far away from where we were.
@USGS_Quakes I felt it in San Diego (northern suburbs). My then-husband was in our motorhome at a ham radio remote event north of SD and east of LA and woke up to the RV rocking.
@USGS_Quakes We felt it in Santa Barbara-it was quite strong. I stepped on many Legos trying to get to my children, who slept through it. Then we went to Van Nuys to help our friend. We slept on the floor & felt aftershocks all weekend. I realized earthquakes don't kill people, buildings do.
2024 began with a major #earthquake in Japan, could a similar thing happen here? Our updated National Seismic Hazard Model shows what parts of the U.S. could experience damaging earthquakes. What’s the #earthquake hazard where you live? ow.ly/pbRA50QqbEo
If you aren't famliar with Did You Feel It? maps, this graphic explains what they show: the relative severity of shaking across a region, assessed with an intensity scale. Studies have shown that DYFI intensities correlate well with shaking levels recorded by seismometers.
