Didn't Arkansas just have a 3.6 yesterday?
“Whole lotta’ shakin’ goin’ on.”
Don't feel bad Mark...We have friends that moved from CA to North Carolina who had no idea the place was crawling with illegal aliens....
...lol
Increasing in severity might not be a good thing...
This will be the faux science to replace the global warming fraud.
All earthquakes are caused by fossil fuel extractions.

Somehow, earthquakes don’t frighten me nearly as much as tornadoes do.
Ditto. I'm a native born Californian. I've felt many an earthquake. The '71 sylmar quake was the most violent I ever felt due to my location to the epicenter. But I would never trade places with someone in tornardo alley. I admit that it could have something to do with watching "The Wizard of Oz" at a young age. That tornado scared me to death.
There is a map, but scroll down to see the list of all the quakes in Arkansas.

Guy Faults?
The big problem is that on the New Madrid fault an earthquake which would transpose those numbers is a possibility. The quakes of the early 1800s were estimated at about 8 and if they happened today they would cause almost as much damage as Obama has.
It’s a full Moon!
I bet it’s the giant worms from the movie, “Dune.”
“Guy Faults”
That’s very good. Maybe the town should start a Guy “Faults” day.
I’m not a Brit but I worked overseas with a lot of them.
“Since September, seismologists have recorded 700 temblors in the area...”
Personal vibrator sales have plummeted since September according to local merchants.
I have a FRiend who moved from Eureka Ca to Arkansas to escape the cool wet weather and the frequent earthquakes we have here. He sent me photos of him shoveling snow over his head last week and now this? I just sent him the link... snicker
Yes it did have a 3.6 yesterday. If you look up you will see we have a full moon. We are more likely to have earthquakes at the full and the new moon. The moon looks larger than usual. Is this atmospheric conditions, or is it actually closer in its eliptical orbit? Does anyone here know the answer? I would not be surprised if we have other larger than usual earthquakes elsewhere in the next several days.
