I am losing confidence in the local "earthquake tracker" website, because it shows nothing. I hope they are not discriminating against Canadian shakers, especially so close to Washington and Alaska.
Well, I was quite impressed with the USGS website. Within about three minutes, they had the big red square up on the map with a preliminary magnitude estimate. The Canadian equivalent, in contrast, had no data that was less than a week old, and didn't get anything up for about half an hour.
Keith,I have noticed that if more than 20 people visit the Canadian earthquake site, it gets overloaded. Joking about 20, but still, the two shakes we have felt in Toronto in the last 2 years have created enough visitors to crash their site. Pretty embarrasing. I am going to add Ken's usgs script on my page so there is some info there for the next quake within 500kms of me.Andrew
