Friday, September 9, 2011 20:54

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.

People from all over Vancouver island and the lower mainland were reporting extended periods of time where buildings were swaying and bouncing as a magnitude 6.7 earthquake struck. The USGS reports that it was at a depth of 25.9 kilometers, earlier assessments were reporting only two kilometers below the surface.

Reports of the quake came in from the Fraser Valley to Campbell River at around 12:41 PT p.m., but there are no reports of damage. Officials are saying that after shocks could be felt over the coming days but that the quake was not big enough to trigger a tsunami.

The quake could be felt as far away as Seattle, Washington, but U.S. officials say there are no reports of damage in the city.
