The largest earthquake in years has struck in Idaho in the Pacific Northwest United States. The event struck on the edge of the craton at a time where we were looking for a M6.5 to strike along the coast of Washington.
This is the earthquake we were looking for.. the exact magnitude (M6.5) in the region expected (pacific northwest). Expect new large activity in the M5.0 range across 3 areas of California, as well as upper 4.0 to near 5.0 activity across Colorado, Oklahoma, and in Missouri (new madrid swarm expected). East Coast Virginia and New York due for noteworthy activity as well.
This is double go time. First for the shelter in place we are all experiencing, and 2nd for this new seismic activity spreading across the plate.

Much love to everyone during wild times.
