5.0 Big Lake Alaska!!! 21 Miles From Anchorage With 2000 Felt Reports Now Totaled!!! LOTS Of Aftershocks, There, Too!!!!! SUNDAY. . . 4.2 Downgraded To 3.6 Richters Struck Near Boston, Massachusetts!!! Over 27,000 Felt Reports All The Way To Texas, And Minnesota!!!

At press time I had some trouble deciding which of these two fairly big shakers goes where in this edition of my EQ Blog!!!  So, allow me to start out with mention that there was a rather big 4.2 later downgraded to about a 4.0 Massachusettes Earthquake and in the immeidiate search of it I located Marthas Vineyard, so it's not too far from there and tsunami was mentioned that there apparently was not one. . . however you might recall me continueally saying even if there had been one there is still no "Tsunami Alert System" for our East Coast!!!  All the info on THAT earthquake can now be found added to the end of this blog since on Saturday there was this 5.0 Near Anchorage, Alaska!!!!!

NO LESS important, not quite as big, but with a felt report now in excess of 27,000 was this rather big for Massachusettes at 3.6 Richters just after 9am their time!!!  Originally found to be about a 4.2, then downgraded to 4.0, then downgraded to 3.8 and looks like for now at least a 3.6 now!  Felt Report will follow at some point early this week, sorry it's about 850 lines long!!!!!   Here's a link to great story from Boston@  https://boston.cbslocal.com/2020/11/08/massachusetts-earthquake-november-8/     AND The USGS Report with the list of nearby places:
