Unfortunate to report the updated rapid damage estimate using Risklayer CATDAT for the #Turkey-#Syria #Earthquake:
16,800 deaths (Range: 4,400 to 39,100). Still quite uncertain. Median economic estimates in the order of $15 bn.

Looks like hell coming out


That other video of that building collapse is horrible. They never stood a chance.

That would put it in the same range as 1999.

A 7.8 in Turkey is not shocking. A 7.8 in that region is shocking though. The fear has always been a 7.8 that is closer to Istanbul than the one in 1999.

A high casualty event would not be a ringing endorsement for seriously enforced building codes. However, that is probably true more for northwestern Turkey.

Geez, I wonder if we can expect some volcanic activity to intensify around the Mediterranean?

A 3.8 just hit Buffalo, NY. That’s extremely rare. I wonder if we start seeing a ton of action these next few days and even weeks.

Of course it's all connected, but it's hard to understand how.

There are thousands of earthquakes every day. Generally, about 10% are felt.

At least it looks like things are calming down out there. They are still getting aftershocks, but they are getting smaller and smaller.

I see they had another one that hit 7.7 this morning. Many videos of buildings collapsing as they try to search & rescue.
