Just hoping our NACHI members and all are OK after the quake today.
Good Luck in the following days. Many houses and buildings are going to have to be inspected to make sure no structural damage has occurred.
Again, good luck to all.

On a more serious note, there were several deaths and substantial damage. I am fortunate this time to be 150 miles from the epicenter.
6.5 is almost as bad as the 1994 quake here in LA which measured 6.7.

No, I don’t work out there and I haven’t seen any damage first hand. I’m getting local news reports.
Any time we see even one collapsed building, there is always extensive damage that shows up in the next few hours or days. The collapses get the media attention more than the "unseen" damage that pops up later. Guaranteed - there will be reports of houses off foundations, roof collapses, out building damage, etc., etc., etc.
