Another fairly substatial Oklahoma Earthquake.
« on: November 06, 2016, 08:51:32 PM »
Felt one right about 7:42 or so.  Not sure what the USGS will classify it as, but it was strong initially then tapered off.

Bunty, did you feel it?

EDIT: To add USGS page for the event.  Initial reports are a 5.3

I don't know how you guys get used to that.
It's like one day I'm going to hear about a 7.0 to hit the area. :-(

I sure hope not.  It's bad enough here with tornadoes; don't need a devastating quake also.  At least so far the damage is never widespread.  I did hear a news flash saying that a senior center in Cushing was damaged but no words of any injuries.

Plate movement or fracking?
