Anchorage, Alaska, area hit by 5.1 magnitude earthquake

Source: CNN

An earthquake with a magnitude of 5.1 struck the Big Lake area north of Anchorage, Alaska, early Saturday, according to the US Geological Survey.

A magnitude 3.9 temblor was among several aftershocks that hit the scenic, lakeside community located about 60 miles north of Alaska's largest city, according to USGS.

The US National Tsunami Warning Center said Anchorage was not expecting a Tsunami warning from the quake.

In July, a 7.8 magnitude earthquake struck off southern Alaska's coast, rocking the Alaska Peninsula and briefly sparking tsunami concerns before officials said no destructive waves were coming.

I am thinking since Alaska voted for Trump he will send them Federal Funds, that is unless he is still in a nasty mood, no one gets anything. California will have to wait for Joe Biden to send us Federal relief from all the fires here in the state, due to climate change.

I guess its going to be a toss up if Alaska gets relief funds... but I am guessing Trump is in such a foul mood, that no one gets anything out of him, not now or ever.
