Any additional damage news in the past several days, Sue? And, since the quakes were so shallow, have any surface ruptures been found?
Thanks for the link to the Earthquake Center map. It shows dozens of very near-surface aftershocks up to about 3.5. And they are all lined up right along the southeastern extension of the Denali Fault, which approximates the orientation of the Lynn Canal.
Hadn't really thought about it before, but now think I'll have to pay a visit to the Earthquake Center when I am in Fairbanks in June. Guess I was just too excited about getting to go back to the Permafrost Tunnel for the first time in 45 years to remember the Earthquake Center!
