1980 Honduras earthquake
The 1980 Honduras earthquake struck just offshore Honduras on August 9 at 05:45 UTC. Two people were killed and many injured.
== Damage and casualties ==
The earthquake hit at 05:45 UTC, around 11:47 PM local time. It caused the most damage at Puerto Barrios〔Ambraseys and Adams, p. 198.〕 in Izabal Department, Guatemala, and Puerto Cortes, Honduras,〔 and it killed two and measured between 6.4 and 6.7 surface wave magnitude.〔 The quake was felt throughout Honduras, Belize, and parts of Guatemala.〔 Damage was recorded at the port town of Livingston and extended to northwestern Puerto Rico; this damage is poorly recorded.〔
The earthquake severed communications with rural hill and coastal villages in Honduras, and it frightened thousands of people into leaving their homes. Early reports listed only one fatality; a man from San Pedro Sula suffered a heart attack from the tremor's initial rupture.〔 In Puerto Cortes, 75 homes, a hotel, a Texaco refinery, and a then-United Brands rail line all at least partially collapsed, the homes all fully. As a result, three people were injured by downed walls and ceilings. In Puerto Barrios, two homes collapsed. Belize City, to the north, experienced the shaking but reported no damage. The earthquake did not extend to Tegucigalpa, Honduras' capital, or Guatemala's capital, Guatemala City.〔
