Jamaica’s Earthquake Monitoring Upgrade | Jamaica News

Jamaica logged 549 earthquakes in 2025 — down from 633 the year before — with most shaking felt locally. Only seven were strong enough to be noticed by people, all on the mainland, ranging from 3.1 to 4.2 on the Richter scale. The Planning Institute of Jamaica is upgrading the country’s seismic monitoring system, repairing hurricane-damaged stations, installing lithium batteries, and even creating earthquake preparedness guides for churches. They’ve also hosted community events and conducted surveys to better understand and communicate seismic risks. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.

Shots Fired at Toronto Consulate Again | Jamaica News

Shots fired at the U.S. Consulate in Toronto early Monday—second attack this year, no injuries but shell casings and damage found. Suspect fled after a one-hour police chase. Authorities are treating it as a brazen, serious threat, with the mayor vowing the perpetrator will be caught. This follows a March shooting at the same location, where two arrests are pending. Toronto police suspect organized gun networks may be involved, and are also investigating recent shootings at two Jewish-owned bakeries—possibly linked to the consulate attack. Investigators remain open-minded as they follow the evidence. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
