JUNEAU, ALASKA — A magnitude 6.3 earthquake rattled a wide area of south-central Alaska, including Anchorage, on Tuesday, the US Geological Survey reported.
The tremor struck about 65 kilometres south of Mount Redoubt, an active volcano near Cook Inlet, and 225km southwest of Anchorage, the state's largest city, and was felt 240km from its epicentre, the USGS said.
