Since this year hasn't been weird enough, I just learned that there has been a relatively minor earthquake near Rawlins.
The USGS reported that there was a 2.7 earthquake centered just to the southeast of Rawlins just to the west of the area known as the Savage Hills.
I'm gonna state the obvious and say that a 2.7 won't even rearrange your china if it happens directly underneath your home. But, it's an earthquake in an area that doesn't normally see measurable earthquakes.
I pass this along as a curiosity in a year that's already seen a very large quake near Salt Lake City and also Challis, Idaho. Hard to say what major event will happen next.
Will do. :)
Challis is still rocking and rolling two weeks after their big one. They had a 3.8 and a 3.7 today.
Same (or next) year exact same at home in AZ.
Yer gonna need a bigger stimulus bill for that!
You are very close to the super volcano under Yellowstone is pretty close. It’s been acting up for years.

Yes, been watching this one. Wouldn’t it be great to have a volcano erupt?

Probably just some corona virus burrowing in for the attack
Interesting trailer. Thank you, Maudeen.

Those are trending like birth pains...
Maybe the Biden Campaign Train jumped the tracks...
2.7? pshaw! Why I remember back in 1947 in Needles we had a 17.5 tumbler. Epicenter was right under my house. Talk about rattling the windows! It woke me up. Sounded like the Union Pacific ol' Number 9 coming through on it's way in to Bullhead. Those were the days. Ships were made of wood and the men were made of steel. Not like today when a sneeze would cause a 2.7.....
W have little ones in the Northeast. They are just enough to make me happy I dont live in California.
2.7 Daily Tremor Alaska has 100 of them a day
Hard to even feel a 2.7. I always wonder why it is even reported.
