Today at work we had an earthquake drill, which of course was for real, as a 7.0 earthquake near Eureka, California, occurred today. I hope the redwood trees are okay. I really loved those trees when I went on the trip there a year-and-a-half ago.
A magnitude 7 earthquake about 30 miles off the Humboldt County shoreline prompted a highly unusual tsunami warning for a wide swath of the Northern California coast Thursday, spurring widespread evacuations before it was canceled an hour later.
The earthquake rattled large parts of the region — from San Francisco and Monterey to as far away as Sacramento, Reno and southern Oregon — providing a stark reminder of how coastal seismic activity can threaten to produce damaging tsunamis under the right circumstances.
Many reported terrifying shaking in and around the Eureka area, with bottles of alcohol shattered behind one bar, but there were no immediate reports of major injuries, likely owing in part to the epicenter being so far away from highly populated areas. Preliminary estimates indicate the epicenter was about 55 miles southwest of Eureka and 100 miles northwest of Mendocino.
