Here's a great site that I visit every few days to keep up to date with all things quakey.

www.earthquake-news.net...
It updates every 30 minutes.

It has a really easy to read interactive world map showing all the latest quakes.

A few weeks ago there was an almost perfect circle of quakes around the yosemite caldera.

Check out the links at the top of the page to see what's been happening in the last 7 days as well.

A great resource.

Earthquake 3D is what I use to see earthquakes around the globe. Its free.

I am really puzzling over the quake swarms. They sure seem artificially induced.

The difference here is it has been around 1000 not 80. That is a huge numerical difference. From what Ive read earthquake swarms are associated with flows of Magma. Thats what scares me about this. A magma flow casuing 1000 earthquakes in two months, especially one where the shocks are intensifying like foreshocks to some major seismic event scare the crap out of me. Most of the quakes from what I have read were centered at Mogul, Nevada about 20 miles outside Reno.

The area has a geological history of massive volcanism. I fear Mogul may end up being at the center of a near future cauldera, maybe even megacauldera.

Good point. I didn't realise it was around 1000. This sort of thing is extremely rare right? the ones in Spokane were shallow as well...and that really loud "boomb" that precipitated the first 4.1 was the most incredible sound people say that they have ever heard...

Are there / have there been any reports of a large boomb sound at all just before the bigger quakes in Nevada there?

What about anywhere else around the world...any swarms anywhere else?

just thinking about it makes the hair stand up on the back of my neck...earthquakes are kinda creepy...and yet kinda cool too...mother nature is so powerful to take a huge area and shake it all up like that...
