WOW! The last 6 days Blows C.A Away for earthquakes over 3.0. I never knew that it was that active if at all.

Has anyone seen news of this in the news papers or National T.V.

Anyone from A.K online?

I did not research if this goes back further there might be a chance that has been more but it is Impressive that there has been so many over just 6 days at the Magnitude of 3.0 or more.

I assume you mean AK (Alaska)

I lived in Alaska for 4 years. In the interior. Earthquakes are very common there. In fact, I felt tons of them while there. Small ones, but enough to know what it was.

Just one of those things Alaskans are used to

Alaska is one of the most seismically active regions in the world - experiencing a major earthquake (magnitude 7.0 or greater) almost every year, whereas no earthquakes of more than moderate intensity have occurred within the borders of North Dakota during historical times.

Q: Are there particular places in the United States where earthquakes are more likely to occur?

A: Although it is conceivable that a small earthquake could occur almost anywhere, earthquakes are much more common in some regions than others. Of the fifty United States, Alaska has the most earthquakes and the largest earthquakes; California probably has the second most, including some very large quakes.
