We felt a tremor here in Missouri. Between Kc and Springfield
Oh, jeez, not the drilling theory again. We’ve been extracting oil and gas from the earth for 100 years, and it suddenly caught up with us last night. /sarcasm
Otherwise, interesting report - thanks. I have driven Sparks Road many times. I also learned the name of the fault today - The Seminole Uplift.
Being from Texas I always suspected that Oklahoma was cracked.
Just waiting for the anti-frack people to jump on this.
Probably a good thing FEMA is out of money so they can’t give everyone there little trailers like in Katrina.
And debit cards to buy lottery tickets and liquor.
I, for one, welcome our new insect overlords from the center of the earth.
Reminds me of that song by Elvis, “I’m All Shook Up”. LOL!
That is considered a major highway in Oklahoma.
They already have. Saw it mentioned in another story here on FR about the quake. *sigh*

***Just waiting for the anti-frack people to jump on this.***
They’re all over at DU practicing falling down and throwing tantrums.
I think the planet’s getting ready to split in half. Shouldn’t be a big deal.
I’ve got 72 wells on the big ranch all TD’d at around 9000 ft and all had big frack jobs or at least big for these type wells and we’re still standing, not even a quiver. To believe fracing could cause earth quakes is beyond ignorance. This county is just over 1000 square miles and in some area’s the wells are spaced 40 acres apart with little of the county not being drilled. Theres almost 400,000 wells scattered all across TX and most if not all have had some type of fracing.
It's the latest fad for environmentalists.....blame everything bad on drilling....just like they blame every significant weather event on "climate change".
There was a 71 year old OK. woman on the news saying she didn’t think this was over and to be watchful over the next few.
HUMM
Maybe God is trying to make a mountain out of a molehill.
Road near my house in Bridge Creek, OK, looks like this every August.
