Wow...didn't feel a THING...in Upper Caret about halfway up Crown Mountain. My friend over in Misgunst said she was shakin'...so was another friend in Northstar. Neither big dog nor small cat indicated anything weird. Felt one, pretty significantly in the middle of the night on the West End once but nothing up here...

just downloaded this app! Thanks EastEnder! Living stateside my entire life, I never had to worry about these things, I think anyone with an Iphone / Ipad needs this app. It's very informative, up-to-the-minute, and I LOVE the tsunami link! Thanks again!

Denise: Do you have Hurricane by Kitty Code? It is the best $3.99 I have spent. All of the forecast info, radar, satellites, etc in one convenient spot. (tu) I love my iPhone!
