Earthquake center shakes a little bit
Posted 1/8/13
ANCHORAGE — A light earthquake has occurred near the spot where a major temblor struck over the weekend in Southeast Alaska.
The Alaska Earthquake Information Center says the quake occurred at 5:46 a.m. Tuesday and had a preliminary magnitude of 4.0.
It was centered 98 miles west-northwest of Craig, close to where Saturday’s powerful magnitude-7.5 earthquake struck.
That earthquake prompted a tsunami warning for hundreds of miles of Alaskan and Canadian coastline.
