A tsunami warning was initially issued, then canceled when a tsunami didn't materialize.
Aftershocks in the 5 range. Still moderate sized earthquakes in their own right.
Videos on the internet of rooms shaking and people hiding under desks. Lots of damage to roads broken by what looks like land slippage. Traffic in and out of Anchorage all snarled up.
No reports of any deaths or injuries at this time.
