There was an 8.3-8.8 (holy christ) earthquake in Chile a few hours ago, one in Japan the other day. There was just a 7.0 in China. We had another in my area a few weeks ago, I forgot the scale. That one in Haiti... It seems like kind of a lot doesn't it? I mean its super weird we've had like 2 or 3 in the past few years here. I would be scared if I was living in San Fran right now.
Here's the information that is out on the Chile one. I've seen 8.3 and 8.8 reported and they said there was minimal risk of a tsunami to the west coast of the US and Canada - so no worries. Scary stuff man. It was 3-5 minutes long. Yikes. Then I read that it was 65x the strength of the one in Haiti. That can't be right can it?
I took some sleeping pills then people came over and I had a few margaritas, so I think I'm gunna be out hard. If you get any pictures, videos, or more information can you post it in the comments? I've very interested.
