COLUMBIA, S.C. -- Yet more earthquakes have struck near South Carolina's capital city, the ninth and tenth in a series of rumblings that have caused geologists to wonder how long the convulsions might last, or if they could possibly portend future, more serious seismic activity.
Early Wednesday, a 2.6-magnitude earthquake struck near Elgin, about 25 miles (40 kilometers) northeast of Columbia, according to the U.S. Geological Survey. It was measured at a depth of 0.5 kilometers, officials said. About 7 hours later, another earthquake hit the area, this one with a magnitude of 1.5, according to officials.
That area, a community of fewer than 2,000 residents near the border of Richland and Kershaw counties, has become the epicenter of a spate of recent seismic activity, starting with a 3.3-magnitude earthquake on Dec. 27. That quake clattered glass windows and doors in their frames, sounding like a heavy piece of construction equipment or concrete truck rumbling down the road.

I was shocked when an earthquake hit in August 2020, 5.1 on the scale, originated in North Carolina above Greensboro, near the Virginia border. We live in upstate South Carolina and felt it most distinctly, on a Sunday morn.
Certainly caused by climate change and is all Trump’s fault.
“Certainly caused by climate change and is all Trump’s fault.”
You said it wrong ...
It happened on one of Trump’s faults.
Biden will put an end to them.
Does that not make them NOT experts?

Economic experts are convinced they know everything about economic data until they are proven to be wrong 100% of the time.
Experts know that there is no history of earthquakes in South Carolina.
