    [This is ‘unusual’ seismic activity and shaking patterns for this part of the USA, on an ‘unmapped’ fault, and seemingly challenging existing models of earthquake risk in the region; while a 4.8 is not big, it must have been quite a surprise for the people in this heavily populated U.S. Northeast not used to such things (per the paper, the USGS estimated it was felt by some 42 million people.]

  3. I didn't feel the 6.4 magnitude earthquake just off the northern California coast, but the piercing alert on my mobile phone sure woke me at 2:35AM... did you feel it?
