They went ahead and lowerd the quake from monday evening from a 3,2 to a 2,8 richter,, they really don´t like having stars on the map. Not a single
quake of all the 3+ quakes each week now stayes above 3 richter,,
How crappy are the instruments if the most watched area that has loads of stations nearby, that not a single quake over 3 richter holds up. Yet we get
quakes in vatnajökull and those numbers hold up yet that´s the worst watched area. Well atleast for nearby sil stations and the other ,, can´t
recall at the moment what it´s called.
I can believe that one or two quakes get downgraded like that , but not dozens of quakes over a 8 week period.
Something Smells Fishy
They even go ahead and say on the weekly overview that the largest quake from last week was 3,5 and then they say some were under 3, but then if we
look at the numbers for that quake , we get this instead
20111108 095041.992 63.60371 -19.13850 0.136 2.90 3.38
this says the quake was 2,9 richter. so they were only 0,6 richter off conveniently just putting the quake under the mark needed for them to put a
star on the map where the quake was.
