Gettingreports of loss of connectivity to parts of chile
They had an 8.5 a short while ago.
At that magnitude, I don't know how significant .3 is, but from the
USGS:
They use the magnitude moment scale (Mw), and 0.3 magnitudes means 2.8
times the energy.
Mw = 8.8 is equivalent to maybe 5 Teratons of TNT.
