By California standards that would barely make us raise an eyebrow and we get them all the time.

I can see how it would scare the begeesus out of other people though.

A 3.5 might shake a few trailers off the wheels.

Not likely, a 3.5 is barely noticeable.

That’s very fortunate, a few hundred small quakes could be releasing a fair amount of energy. It it were all released at once, it might do some damage.

BTW,

There are growing rumors that the USGS site and other official sites are either not posting some quakes or posting them and quickly removing them.

Have you come across such?

I know the originator of the QUAKE WATCH thread on ATS is trying to collect info to verify or rule that contention out one way or the other.

Its very localized to just around Guy.

Is that anywhere close to the Clinton Library?

Sadly, its not that close. Guy is about 50 miles north of Little Rock.

A 7.5 in Guy though, would be bad news for Billy Jeff’s little library. Its very near the Arkansas River. Maybe it
would fall in and be washed away.

A 3.5 M today, but we have a full moon so probably more in the next few days.
