Stormig Posted March 28, 2005 Report Share Posted March 28, 2005 I don't have my calculator, but I estimate that this recent earthquake would be a third the magnitude of last year's, which scored 9.0 or 8.9 or something like that on the Richter scale. So, even if, it might not be as bad, if the epicentre is within reasonable proximity to the previous. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
