6.2 magnitude temblor shakes Alaska

A 6.2 magnitude earthquake struck Alaska yesterday and was felt in the largest city Anchorage, the US Geological Survey and social media reported.

There were no immediate reports of major damage, although the epicenter of the quake was in a relatively rural area.

No alert was issued by the Pacific Tsunami Alert Warning Center after the quake, which struck about 80 miles northwest of Anchorage, according to the USGS and media reports.

The quake struck shortly before 10:00 am local time (1800 GMT). It was initially estimated at a magnitude of 6.1. It was at a depth of 101.7 kilometers (63 miles), which was likely to limit damage, experts said.

“This was quite deep, so I wouldn´t expect any serious damage,” seismologist Natalia Ruppert of the Alaska Earthquake Information Center told the Alaska Dispatch News.

“Deep earthquakes normally don´t produce as many aftershocks as shallow earthquakes, so there will be some aftershocks, but I don´t expect there to be too many,” she added.
