Here's the map. What is odd is that for the first hour after the quake it was showing two smaller quakes (4.9 and 4.6).

THe local news radio station initially reported 6.9 and then later corrected to match the USGS. But now the USGS is saying 6.3. Usually their maps are very reliable (I've seen the data appear on the site within a minute of feeling a quake), so I wonder what went wrong.

Listening to the local news was a lesson in geography as we were told the earthquake was in the island of Oahu and that they were receiveing reports from the island of Honolulu as well.
