You know - if those keep happening out there in the central area, it might be time to take a month vacation? I've read a book on the history of that area (can't recall the name) and that's how their "really big one" started ... turn of the century. first a quake, then "aftershocks" just as big or bigger... then really bad news. I'm sorry, i don't mean to be an alarmist, but that is what i'd do (having read what I did) if it were me.
Hope you all staf safe out there!
We've been getting a bnch of the pacific coast, too... in our case the 5-pointers are "good" because (so they tell us) it is like chiropractic, keeping the 9 pointer away that would level us. I really hope their right. We've had over 500 "little" quakes on the Juan de Feuka plate (spelling) over the past week.
