The U.S. Geological Survey has reported more than 30 earthquakes in the area since Sunday, including a magnitude 3.8 quake Thursday morning and at least 16 others occurring Wednesday, two of which were magnitude 3.2 and 3.5. More than 700 quakes have occurred in the region over the past six months.
Many theories have been submitted from a naturally occuring swarm to natural gas fracking. Scott Ausbrooks, geohazards supervisor for the Arkansas Geological Survey, said the quakes are part of what is now called the Guy earthquake swarm — a series of mild earthquakes that have been occurring periodically since 2009. A similar swarm occurred in the early 1980s when a series of quakes hit Enola, Ark.
On a more "fringe" note, the yellowstone caldera is rising, there is an unseen massive planet on the edges of our solar system and mass animal deaths have occured all over the place since december. The middle east is on fire, the weather is going crazy... is it all just coincedence?
