Yes we are not seeing much of the lesser ones here wind because I think it was clogging the forum up. So I am guessing they changed feeders from USGS to this new one and modified what is posted in regards to the richter scale. I still go to USGS or the real time earthquakes app to monitor them. It does seem to have slowed down dramatically ( the frequency of earthquales ), into a lull for now. But not for long I presume.

This is a well laid out site and at the bottom is another link to sun activity and another to volcanic.

There was also a fairly large quake in Canada yesterday and it didn't show up here since the mods changed the earthquake feeds. Better to be prepared because I sense that something big is about to happen and many people are confirming it. I really hope that nothing severe happens.

Be safe, everyone!

Correct - we switched from the USGS feed that had any quake above 5.0, to this EMCS feed that has any quake above 6.0. Over the last year, about 89% of the quakes posted here from the USGS feed were below 6.0. The number of quakes that will be automatically posted will be a lot less with this new EMCS feed.
