 Power outages reported near La Serena in Coquimbo, #Chile following a strong #quake. 
 @e814e036 a 6.3 in chile is like a 4.3 in LA. Note that the news calls it a "strong tremor" rather than an earthquake. To be considered a "terremoto" you need to be 7 or above, but really 7.5 for most people to care.
