2.4M Earthquake in Northern Texas while Government on Furlough.

October 16, 2013 By TXsharon

Due to a lapse in Federal funding, the USGS Earthquake Hazards Program has suspended most of its operations. While the USGS will continue to monitor and report on earthquake activity, the accuracy or timeliness of some earthquake information products, as well as the availability or functionality of some web pages, could be affected by our reduced level of operation.  LINK

Here’s the Event Page. Yes, it’s in an area of not far from intense drilling happening just west of Midlothian.
