of a felt earthquake near Dominica and a separate event near Saint Lucia on
November 17th and November 19th, respectively. Due to technical difficulties the
SRU is unable to provide an exact location and map for these events at this
time, however other details are as follows:
Dominica - On Thursday, November 17th at 1:56AM local time an earthquake of
magnitude 3.3 was felt in northern Dominica.
Saint Lucia - On Saturday, November 19th at 10:36PM local time, an earthquake of
magnitude 3.3 was felt in Saint Lucia.
These events are unrelated. For updates on these and other geologic events in

were when the earthquake occurred. The office may be contacted at (758) 452-3802
