[Budman]

Did you eat beans for breakfast?

It might just be nature.

 

[BigSmooth]

How strong was it? Stronger than that "spring break quake" a few years back? That one woke me up.

Better call the family, make sure they're OK.

[Doggiedog]

YEah the news just crossed the tape.

 

[Thom]

you be careful now dude.

 

[RossMAN]

Viper wasn't sh!tting, I work in downtown Portland, Oregon in a high rise tower and we just felt it. Our building actually moved and you could feel it. I guess when a 20 floors plus tower shakes then it's pretty serious?

Viper, do you know what magnitude this was?

How bad was the damage out in your area?

I grabbed my wallet and was ready to bolt down the stairs (not elevator).

 

[Adul]

ahh earthquakes. I remember them back when i lived in L.A. not a fun ordeal!

 

[The Stigenator]

However NBC4@LA is here as reported.

Seattle.. 6.0 estimated.

 

[The Stigenator]

10:55 = 6.0 @ Seattle
10:56 = 5.0 @ Bay Area

could be a possiblity.?

The power's still on, quit your whining!!

Come down to california and we'll show you some shaking!! One of our local baseball teams is call the "Quakes" and their stadium is the "Epicenter."

It's probably just God punishing all those rioters in Seattle. Or Russ ate too much spicy food last night.

cnn.com doesn't even have any info yet. You gotta love these message boards.

 

[NFS4]

Whoah, they just showed a video of a conference at Microsoft...it was CRAZY.

[Budman]

Bill Gates was soeaking in Portland during the quake...

 

[The Stigenator]

[Hossenfeffer]

My cat started pukin' right before the quake. Bet he felt nice and queasy.

 

[Dug]

I hope that it was it. I'm still shaking a little. A couple of things fell of our shelves here in Vancouver.

Fox News has a blurb up:

An earthquake with an estimated magnitude of 5.9 on the Richter scale has hit the Pacific Northwest, rocking the cities of Seattle, Vancouver and Portland, Ore.


The United States Geological Survey in Denver estimated that the epicenter was 8 miles south of Corvallis, Ore.

A tsunami warning has been issued for the the West Coast and Alaska.


Other news sites say 6.0 or 6.2, though.
