Alaskas Earthquake Alert System Gets a Boost: The U.S. Geological Surveys ShakeAlert system, which provides early warnings for earthquakes, has received a significant funding boost from Congress. With $34.9 million allocated, Alaska will receive $2 million to initiate the system, which uses P-waves to detect quakes before the damaging S-waves hit. State seismologist Michael West hails this as a turning point, aiming to start in high-risk areas like Southcentral, Kodiak, Fairbanks, and Prince William Sound.
