A powerful, magnitude-7.0 earthquake has struck in a remote area near the border between Alaska and the Canadian territory of Yukon on Saturday.

The U.S. Geological Survey says the quake struck about 230 miles northwest of Juneau, Alaska, and 155 miles west of Whitehorse, Yukon. It was also about 56 miles from Yakutat, Alaska, which the USGS said has a population of 662. The quake struck at a depth of about 6 miles and was followed by multiple smaller aftershocks.

Waffle House Index helps Southerners and FEMA judge a hurricane's severity

For some residents of storm-prone Southeastern states, the best indicator of a hurricane's severity can be found at the local Waffle House. If the Georgia-based restaurant chain stays open in town, neighbors are reassured that the coming storm is unlikely to cause devastation. A closed location of the dependable diner chain has come to indicate impending disaster. What might sound like silly logic has become one of the most reliable ways for Southerners and even federal officials to gauge a storm’s severity and identify communities most in need of immediate aid. The Waffle House Index was created by a federal emergency management official and is still used today.
