Default Re: Shaking in Seattle

We were "rocking and a rolling", "moving but not really grooving". It was big with a lot of movement; but no damage to my house or cars etc. Most damage was confined to old brick buildings downtown etc. I was in Alaska in the 1964 earthquake, and I really remember that one. We lived on Kodiak Island. It is a 180 mile long Island, which is bigger than a couple of the smaller States. Anyway the entire island sunk 8 feet. there were 5 to 6 tidal waves following. wiped out the entire downtown area. Small town though, only 8,000 people.
