We develop seismic policies and share information to promote programs intended to reduce earthquake related losses.

This National Preparedness Month, S&T’s Kathryn Coulter Mitchell urges everyone to make emergency plans for their family so we can most effectively handle whatever challenges come our way. https://t.co/fPthmKn8mh #BeReady

Some folks have asked me, "Why should we be concerned about policy?"
The reason is that policy defines actions and priorities!

This is a serious and important topic. Don't forget to sign up and attend today's webinar.

[Washington ShakeOut @waShakeOut]

Aloe there!

Just here to leaf a quick reminder that when the ground shakes, the best way to stay safe is to Drop, Cover, and Hold On under something sturdy!

Then plant yourself there until the shaking stops!

Copernicus #Sentinel2 imagery reveals extensive #landslides near the fault rupture of yesterday's M7.2 #earthquake in western #Haiti. Comparison with previous (Aug 9) image.

[Dr. Susan Hough @SeismoSue]

What a difference a decade makes. Dedicated earthquake professionals in Haiti now operate a local seismic network that gives us a view of aftershocks down to M3s. The jury is out on direction of rupture, but aftershocks sure suggest mostly unilateral to the west.

It is now confirmed that there is NO expected Tsunami threat for the California coast.

Any waves will start to reach our coasts in 90 minutes, and heights should be below 1ft. There could be locally strong currents in harbors as waves arrive. #cawx #tsunami

[NWS Alaska Region @NWSAlaska]

Message #4 from @NWS_NTWC. Max tsunami height forecasted to be under 1 foot at the following locations: https://t.co/Sld7v12aA8

[USGS Earthquakes @USGS_Quakes]

Large earthquakes in Alaska are common. Last night's quake was on the same subduction zone that hosted the 2nd largest eq (M9.2) recorded on modern instrumentation in March 1964. If you haven’t seen it yet, check out the story about the 1964 earthquake. https://t.co/CESiBrtFC0

[Hawaii EMA @Hawaii_EMA]

Based on all available data, the tsunami watch has been cancelled for Hawaii.

Tsunami warnings associated with the 8.2M off the coast of AK https://t.co/AH2uG0erSO

[Dr. Kasey Aderhold @KaseyAderhold]

What a tsunami warning sounds like… they tested this earlier today too but this time is for real! M8.2, looks like on the subduction zone interface.

(and look at those pretty peonies! 🌸)

[NWS Tsunami Alerts @NWS_NTWC]

If you have damage to report, please contact your local emergency manager or relay to your local National Weather Service office.
Remember, strong currents may remain a danger for several hours after unusual waves appear to settle.
