Did you hear 4 loud booms near Victoria, BC yesterday? A number of the @SchoolShake @raspishake seismographs recorded them. These are not earthquakes, but likely related to Naval activities near Metchosin.

Last week we talked about the asperities on a #fault. But, does a fault break all at once?

New partnership between @UVicScience & @GSC_CGC (@NRCan) will bring mini seismometers to #VancouverIsland classrooms, provide critical data to researchers to help BC communities prepare for 'the Big One'.

BC's coast is divided into five tsunami notification zones. Know which ones apply to you so you can respond quickly during a tsunami. Learn more & find detailed zone maps at https://t.co/u3hIDkUCEM

[John Cassidy @earthquakeguy]

It is #TsunamiPreparednessWeek in British Columbia.
#DYK that a tsunami is not "a wave" but rather a series of waves that can continue for hours?
