All 6 of the helicorders that are set up to monitor the Napoleonville salt dome activities are picking up the quake activity. Here are screen caps of #3 and #9:

Magnitude 6.4 earthquake strikes Gulf of Alaska

by Becky Bohrer / The Associated Press
Nov 12, 2012

JUNEAU, Alaska - An earthquake with a preliminary magnitude of 6.4 struck in the Gulf of Alaska on Monday - the largest quake in that region in nearly 25 years.

No tsunami warnings were issued, and there were no reports of damage despite tremors being felt across a large part of southern Alaska. A series of aftershocks also were recorded.

Natasha Ruppert, a seismologist with the Alaska Earthquake Information Center, said this was the largest earthquake in the region since 1987 and 1988, when quakes of magnitude 7.8 and 7.7, respectively, struck.

... Ruppert said the earthquake was not directly related to the magnitude 7.7 quake that struck off the west coast of Canada last month, though she said the two are in same plate boundary system.
