Quake Watch 2015

Is this normal for this area in the US?

HARTFORD, Conn. – The U.S. Geological Survey has confirmed a 3.3-magnitude earthquake near the Connecticut-Rhode Island state line.

Residents in Plainfield and Danielson in eastern Connecticut say a rumbling noise was heard shortly after 6:30 a.m. Monday.

GFZ and UselesSGS are saying 4.8 on conversion to mb

1537 felt reports, that's quite a lot for the time of day and isolated location

was on the cards, TTNT dropped to 6 on the 11th



2nd M5 on land already for 2015, 4th if you include offshore (Sth of Kermadecs and Snares Is)

Could be nothing, but noteworthy. All 6 hours ago, within a 1/2 hour timeframe:

Weird- all 4.7 - 4.8 and in vastly different parts of the earth.

And again a trio of similar magnitude quakes, approx. 6.5 hours after the ones in the above post. All spread out over the globe. Noteworthy.

This line of quakes looks pretty interesting

nothing but a white screen from that link at my end
that is why we call it UseleSGS
since they "improved" their web site it has been user unfriendly

was at 5 minds which NZ quake area to pick for todays screenshot (13Jan UTC).
Had the early 00:40 NZDT M5.5 at Dusky Sound, with what could be a foreshock and 3 aftershocks further north at the end of Doubtful Sound, but nothing close by the 5.5,
or
a 4.1 later @ 6:11am NZDT Mt Dagg on the other side of the Tararua Mts behind where I live, with a 3.1 and 5 x M1 aftershocks,
or
the Wilberforce River/Southern Alps/Unknown Stream aftershocks of the 5.95 seem to have picked up again, 3.3, 3.1 and 3 x M2's
or
the lingering Cook Strait (July/Aug 2013)(9 events ,M2's and M1's) or the lingering Eketahuna (Jan 2014) (6 x M1's) aftershocks

busy day all round
worth a look

only place missing activity is ....................
Christchurch

(hope I don't put a hex on it by mentioning)

in the end I went for the M5.5

Hey muzzy!

It was the 4 upper 4 mag quakes east of Japan, quite evenly spaced...and all just west of the subduction line.

a reply to: radpeteage
oh OK
too late to see it now, UselesSGS only have 1 day or 7 days quakes, nothing in between
Had a look at Wilber3, which is searchable
I see 3 @ over M4.7, those must be them eh

3.8 located in the middle of the Gulf of St-Lawrence

I wonder if this is linked to the Connecticut swarm.

closing this one.....

well DTOM, a to you for doing so!
If you actually bothered to follow these Quake Watch threads you would have noticed over the years that the end of the year is followed by summaries of various countries final figures for the year. It often takes a bit of time to gather up the data to do so, in some cases it may be months to get some of the information.
How can that be done when you closed the thread to posting on?
Dumb

a reply to: muzzy

If you ask nicely, he can open it for you to put those summaries in.

There is no need to try and humiliate him.

Hell, I am here all the time reading every post and I did not know that.

Sprinkle a little love around man.

When I zoomed in on the Terrain view of the USGS map, right there smack in the middle between the Cherokee and Anthony and Medford quakes in capital letters it reads WAKITA TREND GAS FIELD
