Quake Watch 2007

Thanks, if you want to show your support, just put a five star rating on a couple of posts.

I do wonder at how that area works, it doesn't seem to be a continuous fault line.

I know, I know apex...nothing unusual. Just a few earthquakes in a row. Right?

Well, if anything, I'd say it's been quiet actually.

That link does not work, it was a preliminary generated one.

It should now be here

Hi fable & Apex
I have been checking this increase of activity at the Azores too.

Fogo Volcano is located here: see image

The Cape is situated on the Atlantic Ocean, about 600 km. from the Coast of Senegal.

I would say they have been many quakes close or closer to the Iberian Penninsula

We should not forget the 1755 Lisbon Earthquake

1755 Lisbon earthquake, also known as the Great Lisbon Earthquake, took place on November 1, 1755, at 9:40 in the morning. It was one of the most destructive and deadly earthquakes in history, killing between 60,000 and 100,000 people (though the exact number is uncertain). The earthquake was followed by a tsunami and fire, resulting in the near-total destruction of Lisbon

As mentioned by Apex, I think we should keep an eye on these quakes.

Regards

Just to add to this China quake,

3 people have been killed and 290 injured,

1 sadly being a little 4 year old girl,
