January 25, 2013 – TOPAZ LAKE, NV - Sixteen
small quakes hit an area near Topaz Lake early Thursday, but there have
been no reports of damage or injury. The quakes hit an area southwest
of the lake between midnight and 5AM. They ranged from 1.1 to 3.7
in magnitude, and were between three and nine kilometers deep. Another
handful of small quakes hit several hours later, in the afternoon and
evening. The remote area is about 45 miles southeast of Gardnerville.
Another small swarm hit an area about 20 miles west northwest of Donner
Lake between 5:45AM and 6:15AM Thursday. They ranged between 0.5 and 2.1
in magnitude, with no reports of damage or injury. –KOLOTV
Oregon quake cluster: A small cluster of modest earthquakes has been recorded off the central Oregon coast with the largest a magnitude 3.4.
A handful of people reported feeling the 3.4 quake that hit shortly
before 8 p.m. Thursday. The quakes had an average depth of about 35 km
(22 miles). Geophysicist Randy Baldwin of the U.S. Geological Survey’s
National Earthquake Information Center in Golden, Colo., says small
quakes in that area would not be expected to cause any damage on land.
The quakes were centered about 30 miles west of Waldport. Others
included a magnitude 3.0 and a 2.6. Baldwin says such quakes are fairly
common. –Oregon Li
