We didn't feel it in southeast Alaska. It was hundreds of miles away as the salmon swims.

The 1964 Anchorage earthquake created tsunamis that did tremendous damage up and down the coast. Juneau, protected by numerous islands, didn't get a wave but the water level raised and fell precipitously- three fishing boats at moorage overturned, they say.
