Not Reported (USGS not reporting all larger earthquakes?)

[Carmen]

Hmm, USGS does not report all the earthquakes! Christchurch NZ had a 5.1 earthquake at 5.39am this morning. Dont see it here or on the USGS site. Wonder why. They getting slack or is it something else?

Costa Rica had a 5.2 yesterday... I don't know if it's on the list.
Could you check?

Ie, I noticed this a while ago.
I guess it all depends on how many they have to analyse & input the data, but???

Its showing on these site's.

Carmen Hi.

Maybe what you are witnessing is suppression of info.

The earth will not stop shaking, I think the boys at USGS are having a much needed holiday or something......

Is it possible that they weren't "real" earthquakes?!

there are too many quakes for them to track. the magma is heating up. the sun is cooking the earth. my grass is dying already, the leaves on the trees are falling already, everyone here in tulsa is sick with heat cramps, homes only get to 85 indoors, it's 91 at 8 am everyday. people here can't sleep cause it's so hot. EMSA has responded to 120 heat related issues. a bunch of small quakes worries me, could be building to a BIG ONE.
