Seismically active spring in West Virginia
|
I've lost more than $1 million to copyright infringement in the last 15 years, and it's finally brought an end to my professional storm chasing operation. This page is a detailed account of the biggest threat to my photography and video operation that I had to battle daily to just barely survive, and eventually could not overcome. It's a problem facing all of my colleagues as well. |
LINK: USGS report for May 8 WV earthquake
Another small earthquake occured this morning near Servia in Braxton County, a 2.4 magnitude event just after 3AM. Since April 4, there have been five small earthquakes along the I-79 corridor in Braxton County, WV, the first and strongest being a 3.4M event on April 4.
These events are unlikely to be mining-related, due to there not being any active or dormant coal mines in that immediate region. It is possible that all five quakes are related, with the past four events being aftershocks of the April 4 3.4M event. All in all, a very rare sequence of events for the state.
