Earthquake
December 11, 1999
Someone messaged me this morning saying that he felt the quake. I just woke up at the time and wondered what the hell he was talking about. So… I looked it up.
From www.mybc.com:
VICTORIA (CKNW/AM980) — An earthquake measuring four on the Richter scale has given a good jolt to Victoria, the Lower Mainland and Fraser Valley. It hit just before 5:00 a.m. this morning, and callers say it lasted roughly five seconds. Taimi Mulder, a seismologist with the Pacific Geo-Science Centre, says she doesn’t expect aftershocks. The tremor was centred deep underground about 10 kilometres northeast of Victoria. There are no reports of damage or injury.
