FULL STORY
Downgraded to a 6.4 magnitude, def. felt it in Nanaimo.
Screenshot or it didn't happen
I was on the ground floor of an office tower in downtown Vancouver and also didnt feel a thing. but people on the top floor were freaking out
Jesus is coming!!
The quake has been downgraded to a 6.4 but that's still big! I have a friend that lives a mile from Puget Sound, I hope they are OK.
Glory to Yahweh, i live about 35 min away from van city and it shook the fraser valley. Israel is key to our protection we blees them and we'll be blessed, we curse and we'll be cursed also!
Backwards. They cursed Jesus and themselves.
@truth172...you are correct about ancient Ninevah being spared for heeding God's warning. God has never, and would never, destroy anyone without first giving ample warning and ample time to stop doing whatever it is that God himself has condemned. These EQ's aren't God's judgements as your preacher man says. They are warnings of things to come, namely Jesus coming with a Sword.
This is the judgement of the Goddess. Not of your ridiculous God!
How does an earthquake in the Pacific Northwest turn into a discussion about Israel, folks???
Maybe it's Al Queda doing all of these quakes lately.
Negative.
The earth just has an itch and is getting ready to shake off a bad case of fleas.
Recall what Jesus did to the greedy money-changers at the Temple. He fashioned for himself a whip. (Crack! Snap! Git you! And take you greedy ways with you OUT ! of my Fathers house) Where they went is well known. Banks, stock-markets, etc. And to this very day.
There's a tsunami drill coming up in a few days on Washington's north Olympic Peninsula directly across from Vancouver Island. What if a real tsunami and the tsunami DRILL happen at the same time????
Earthquake or a riot from losing a hockey game?
CNN take note. You are incorrectly using miles when it should be Kilometers.The quake was not 175 miles west of Vancouver but 175 Kms west and 50 kms deep not 50 miles deep. It has now been changed to 25 Kms deep.
Editors don't bother with such trite details, you silly person.
Just more birthing pains... would he come already?
I was sitting in an office chair on the 14th floor of an apartment tower in Victoria. We get little quakes all the time but this one felt like someone walking by bumped into my chair.
