Another small earthquake has struck off the West Coast about 200 miles south of Juneau, Alaska.
Officials with the U.S. Geological Survey reported the 4.7 magnitude quake struck at 10:45 a.m. PT, but no tsunami warning was issued. The quake was initially reported as 5.5M, but later downgraded.
On Saturday a 7.5M quake struck the same area, triggering a tsunami warning that was later cancelled.
