tread_tramp Posted June 27, 2005 Posted June 27, 2005 portland quake A small earthquake was felt in much of the Portland metropolitan area Saturday. The U.S. Geological Survey says the quake at 6:49 a.m. measured a 2.7 magnitude and was centered within the city, very close to downtown. The quake was about 9 miles deep. There were no reports of damage or injury. "It was quite well felt," Univ. of Wash. seismologist Bill Steele told KGW, "although the duration of the shaking was quite short. It was really a snap that people felt." Â Â Quote

Couloir Posted June 27, 2005 Posted June 27, 2005 You'd think that piece of shit 2.7 was a major event with a huge death toll the way the local media dry-fucked it so hard. Quote
catbirdseat Posted June 27, 2005 Posted June 27, 2005 5.2. My first! Scary! You'll get used to them. Soon anything less than a 6.0 will elicit a yawn. Quote
