(via Daily Mail UK, USGS) — Residents of Oklahoma were left feeling rattled over the weekend after a string of some 27 earthquakes as powerful as 3.5 magnitude rocked the central part of the state on Saturday alone.
Areas north of Oklahoma City felt the brunt of the temblors, which some say were accompanied by startling booms like the sound of an explosion.
The mystery earthquake wave now has residents fearing for their personal safety and the security of their property. Meanwhile, scientists have been left scratching their heads over the quakes, which are becoming more frequent each day.
6 of these Earthquakes were greater than a 2.5. So now you have to wonder,what is all this about? Is the New Madrid fault waking up? Yellowstone waking up? Or maybe this has nothing to do with nature and everything to do with fracking? Maybe Mother Earth shudders at the pokes and prods of ‘Big Oil’ as they frack her to death. Whatever it is, scientists agree, it is unusual.
