Marina/Ramp: Currently mostly out of Jamestown but spend a lot of time at the other Marinas.

Pre2012-Conley Bottom Mostly, Waitsboro, Alligator I&II ramps, Leesford, Pulaski County Park (when it has water), Grider, State Dock (via boat), and Jamestown are a few places you might find me.

4.0 Earthquake Rattles Southeast Missouri

Post by E_ »

So, did anyone feel it and how far away from it were you? Soak?

What kind of earthquake would it take out on that fault line to hurt the Wolf Creek Dam or the dams/locks for Land Between the Lakes?


If there was a quake right at the dam what is it supposed to be able to withstand?

The U.S. Geological Survey reports an earthquake in southeast Missouri.

Officials say the quake happened around 5 a.m. EST and measured about 4.0 on the Richter scale. The quake was centered around 5 miles northwest of East Prairie, Mo.

WPSD in Paducah reports residents in the area felt the tremor.

So far there are no reports of damage or injuries.
