HONOLULU - An earthquake with a preliminary magnitude of 6.5 struck was felt across Hawaii early Sunday, causing a landslide that blocked a major highway on Hawaii Island, the Pacific Tsunami Center said.
Power outages were reported across the state and there were unconfirmed reports of injuries, according to the State Civil Defense. Problems with communication prevented more definite reports.
I just read about the earthquake and thought of you, OTW. Hope you're doing alright! I hope other Hawaiian Gcers are also out of harm's way. Sending love and prayers your way!
She's on Oahu so she's probably okay, as it didn't seem to be as damaged as the Big Island. People don't realize that the islands have quakes but they do; there was one when I lived on Oahu that moved my heavy bed across the room.
