Abdulhameed Al-Attas Posted August 25, 2014 Share Posted August 25, 2014 My heart goes out for all the people affected by this earthquake. Nothing is more beautiful than seeing people from different countries and cultures showing so much love for one another. Malcolm Needs 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JEMarti Posted August 25, 2014 Share Posted August 25, 2014 I just arrived here in the Bay Area late last night (my office is here despite my living outside of Chicago). The earthquake was centered in Napa so most of the damage was up there and not really in the Bay Area directly. What I can say is that the good news is that this area is extremely well prepared to deal with this. Building codes mean that most structures are able to withstand the quake and while there are a lot of older buildings that sustain damage and quite a few will have to come down, very few people were seriously injured. When you get to the San Francisco/Oakland area things are pretty much normal. Here is a good local news story: blogs.kqed.org/newsfix/2014/08/24/quake-rolls-through-bay-area Malcolm Needs 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
