But the close-in regional maps from there to ME show nothing...
The worldwide shot shows it, but the USA iso map does not.

Must be the big red box on the map you posted (up in Canada). That wasn’t there a few minutes ago.
Isn’t there some super-duper fault in the Missouri area? Wasn’t there a huge earthquake in middle American hundreds of years ago along that line that shook up a number of states (however, I don’t think that the “states” existed at the time of that quake).
