QuakeFeed Status Update + How to Help Hurricane Melissa Recovery

In this episode, we begin with Hurricane Melissa, which made landfall in Jamaica on October 28th as a Category 5 storm and then tore a path of destruction through the Caribbean. If you would like to help support disaster response and recover, please visit Charity Navigator. There you can find highly rated organizations that are helping those impacted by Hurricane Melissa.

Then we continue with a QuakeFeed status update. We share our plan and timeline for the next few QuakeFed app updates – including how and when we plan to support iOS 26. We also talk about new content we creating, such as the On This Day in Earthquake History series. We close with a few words about why we think learning about historical earthquake events is important and helpful.
