Residents of Adak, in the Western Aleutians, are used to frequent earthquakes. But this morning’s magnitude 7.0 quake left locals a little more rattled than usual.

Cynthia Galaktionoff was already at work at the local clinic when the earthquake hit around 7:25 a.m.

“I was talking to my Anchorage office and I felt the shaking,” says Galaktionoff. “I don’t normally feel it in this building, but I felt this one. It was really weird and it was really noisy. And he said he could hear it over the phone. And I looked at the clock and I timed it, it was like 40 seconds that we shook. It was pretty dramatic for us.”

According to the West Coast and Alaska Tsunami Warning Center, the earthquake struck about 70 miles southeast of Adak and 65 miles southwest of Atka.

It did not prompt a tsunami warning. Adak city manager Layton Lockett says there were no immediate reports of damage on the island.
