2. Small earthquakes hit Oregon, Hawaii; no damage reported

Funny.. the other hit where my daughter and her family live.. but the Hawaii one hit the Big Island.. My son, his wife and I are on the most Northern one..

Found this though... Eeee gods!

The U.S. Geological Survey says that minor earthquakes have shaken part of the Portland, Oregon, metropolitan area and Hawaii

The agency also reports that on Hawaii's Big Island, a magnitude-3.0 earthquake hit near the town of Leilani Estates at 4:13 p.m. local time. There are no reports of damage.

Experts in Hawaii are more focused on the possible tsunami effect of major earthquakes that take place in the Pacific Ocean region around the islands. A study by University of Hawaii researchers released in May says there's a 9 percent chance that an earthquake measuring magnitude 9 or greater will strike Alaska's Aleutian Islands within the next 50 years and send large tsunami waves to Hawaii.

5. The rumbling may be the Big Island's volcano getting ready for a big boom!

I'm glad you're not on the Big Island!

[Cha]

8. So am I, SunSeeker.. I originally thought I was going to retire

there because my son had some property he was going to build a house on and I could take care of it.. but, he decided to sell before I got there and I'm so glad!

Mahalo~

6. I'm so glad you are OK!

[Cha]

9. Glad you asked, Luna.. it started

quite the conversation and I found out there was one in Portland, Ore, too.

I'll call my daughter tomorrow to ask if they felt anything..

Shows you just never know when something might hit and be grateful when it Doesn't!

[sheshe2]

10. Glad you are safe Cha.

Any news of your daughter in Portland?

Stay well.

[Cha]

14. Thanks, she~ I'd be clueless if it weren't for

our buddies around here. lol

I haven't called Brigid yet.. but flea says Portlanders are fine!

12. I am here on the Big Island

Never felt a thing!
Like you, Cha, I read about it

Aloha!--glad you didn't notice it either

[Cha]

13. That's right! omg.. I

totally forgot I knew someone on the Big Island! I am so sorry, pandr!

You felt nothing.. good! Here's to it staying that way~

I know what one feels like because I lived in San Diego for 15 years and there were 2 different small ones, years apart. I was in bed once and looked under the bed to see what was there I was so clueless and then just sitting in my car for the other one.

I mostly get my news from someone on DU telling me about it or word of mouth over here.. so far it's worked out.

Have a great Sunday enjoying your Island!~

15. Glad to hear you're ok!

[Cha]

16. Mahalo, sarae!

I didn't even know there were earthquakes out here!

Thank you.. good to see you!
