Swarm of 600 earthquakes detected off Oregon

I suppose I should have put this thread here.



By JEFF BARNARD

GRANTS PASS, Ore. - Scientists listening to underwater microphones have detected an unusual swarm of earthquakes off central Oregon, something that often happens before a volcanic eruption — except there are no volcanoes in the area.

There have been more than 600 quakes over the past 10 days in a basin 150 miles southwest of Newport. The biggest was magnitude 5.4, and two others were more than magnitude 5.0, OSU reported.

Either there's an unknown volcano yet to be discovered or it may be something bigger.

What do you earthquake experts think?

Magnitude 5.0 - BERING STRAIT -
Sunday, April 13, 2008 at 13:41:33 UTC
Depth 11.4 km (7.1 miles)






Update with after shock:
Magnitude 3.5
Sunday, April 13, 2008 at 20:00:55 UTC
Depth 40 km (24.9 miles)



I posted this one because of the location. Just a bit further away and a bit larger than the majority up there recently

And testting if I can get some of this code to work for me... fingers crossed... post!

We've been having swarms of earthquakes here in Reno, NV for weeks now, about five miles from my house, some thirty or so yesterday. They're mostly 3.5 and under, but it is concerning.

Whoa! Thanks for pointing that out, helio I can post 'em but I have just started to delve into all the aspects of tracking these. This does all seem a bit active when you factor that in as well. Maybe the thread regarding the 17th and a Quake in Cali wasn't too far off? Let's give it another day

Is this one a little out of place...?

Magnitude 5.2 ILLINOIS
Friday, April 18, 2008 at 09:37:00 UTC
11.6 km (7.2 miles)




5.4 earthquake rocks Illinois; also felt in Indiana
"It shook our house where it woke me up," said David Behm of Philo, 10 miles south of Champaign. "Windows were rattling, and you could hear it. The house was shaking inches. For people in central Illinois, this is a big deal. It's not like California."


Edit the downgrade and other stats -- Thank you below
