While not as strong as the Haiti earthquake, the situation needs to be monitored. The only consolation is that the quake occurred off the coast of Puerto Rico. If you have family or friends living in, or visiting Puerto Rico, you should try and get in touch with them immediately.

Aftershocks will cause more damage, and injury.
