Glad you posted....I've been watching this swarm
Gradually increase over the last month or so.

Really getting active...especially since last night.

Good thing there really isn't too much up in that corner of Nevada
In case a bigger one hits.

A short distance from this area is Klamath Falls, which contains the Klamath Lake fault zone. This particular fault is capable of producing quakes in the 7+ range.

could it be the superplume under yellowstone putting pressure on the surrounding north American crust?

These 60+ quakes are in the area where the Hotspot that is now Yellowstone was 20 million years ago. So it was a site of super volcanoes long ago.

Most likely.

Similar swarms in Nevada usually climax with a 5 point+
And then die down. It will be interesting to see how big this
Finale will be.

Can confirm.
I am very close to where all of those are going off.

I felt the 4.6 last night.

Very weird indeed.

Either we're about to have a mega quake, or a valcano is about to explode.

Could be wrong though, we'll see...

This swarm is relentless. The fact that this area remains very active still and some of these quakes are growing in magnitude concerns me.

Multiple quakes still, some more moderate ones in the 4.7 range overnight and into the morning!

Maybe the crust is busting loose from its base; getting ready for the big move.

Getting free here and there allows pressures to ease...and other pressures to build up.

Yup...getting ready to rumble.catdanceratdancedance

Yes, this swarm is significantly more intense than the
Mogul swarm of 2008 (just northwest of Reno)
And the Hawthorne swarm of 2011.

Both climaxed with a 5.0

Looks like this swarm is going to be a bit bigger.

Glad to see a thread on this. I've been wondering what the heck was going on there.

Just noticed something interesting. If you toggle between the terrain and satellite maps all of the lakes surrounding this swarm were completely dry when the satellite photo was taken. Anyone near there know if those lakes are dry now?

Yeah, they've always been dry.

Who knows when they last were an actual lake.

Here in Nevada we call them flats.
