Tornado hit near Virgina nuclear plants also..and less than two years ago. Now, living 9 miles from one plant, we face a significant hurricane threat in the next two days.
ANCHORAGE, Alaska (AP) — The U.S. Coast Guard is warning people in far southern Alaska to take precautions after a tsunami warning was issued for coastal areas of Alaska and the Pacific Northwest.
The warning was sparked by a strong earthquake Saturday night that shook off the west coast of Canada.
The U.S. Geological Survey says the 7.7-magnitude earthquake hit in the Queen Charlotte Islands area, followed by a 5.8-magnitude aftershock several minutes later.
