The common thing is that all of these earthquakes are in regions where we see tiny earthquakes (not felt) almost every day. These recent earthquakes are reminders of our active earthquake zone and the importance of being prepared.

Recent earthquakes are mainly reminders that southwest British Columbia (and the Pacific Northwest) is an active seismic zone. ⚒️

Scribe was supposed to be doing headshots and food photography today. Instead, she’s checking her Earthquake bag, adding 72-hour candles to her DIY lineup (because clearly, she needed more to make), and—once again—asking you to sign up for @ShakeoutBC.

Tuesday's 530am #earthquake was a well-timed follow-up to #ShakeOutBC. The early timing and quiet schools resulted in the event being nicely recorded on all #SchoolShake instruments. If you felt it, you can still report it here www.earthquakescanada.nrcan.gc.ca/dyfi-lavr/fo...
