3.4M Event Page. If you felt this quake, please report it to the USGS. As always, document the condition of your home regularly. Texas does not build to earthquake code so even small earthquakes can damage your foundation.
Update: this quake was downgraded to a 2.7M.
From a resident who already has home damage from the quakes:
Just had a big quake felt boom and heard it and it felt like something hit my house.
As noted previously:
- The media should stop saying these earthquakes are causing no damage and start asking who pays for the damage.
- Having Frackademia study the earthquakes is not the answer.
- This is getting ridiculous!
