Quake Hits Alaska, Cracks Roadways
(AP) - A major earthquake rocked a sparsely populated area of interior Alaska early Sunday afternoon, damaging supports to the trans-Alaska oil pipeline and opening 6-foot cracks in highways and roads. The magnitude 7.9 quake, centered 90 miles south of Fairbanks, was strongly felt in Anchorage about 270 miles to the south. It hit at 1:13 p.m. Alaska Standard Time, said Bruce Turner of the West Coast and Alaska Tsunami Warning Center.

Alaska is on the ring of fire.. they get quake fairly often. Not as often as say, california, but when they do get em they generally get big ones. Biggest one in recorded history was centered in Alaska I believe...

also created a tidal wave, with that earthquake that SonyFan is speaking of.  My dad was on a little airplane flying over the tidal wave when it hit.
