🌊 California Tsunami threat over after confusion, evacuation orders /// SF Standard

Thursday’s earthquake was the second-most powerful to strike the United States in more than a decade. Since 2010, only one other U.S. earthquake reached a magnitude of 7.0, according to USGS data: a 7.1 temblor in 2019 in rural Kern County, 160 miles northeast of Los Angeles.

I’m pretty far from the strike zone here, but we still got hit with the double emergency notifications in Napa. Happy to see it doesn’t appear to have been to bad in other places either given the severity of the quake.
