dutchsinse Published on Sep 12, 2015 A noteworthy M4.2 (M4.0 revised) earthquake has struck between Mount Rainier Volcano and Glacier Peak Volcano -- East of downtown Seattle Washington, near Snoqualmie, WA. earthquake.usgs.gov/earthquakes/eventpage/uw61064752#scientific_origin:uw_uw61064752This is one of the larger earthquakes to strike the area over the past year... there was just one other M4.4 which struck two weeks ago. This new M4.0+ movement over the past 2 weeks shows that the Pacific Northwest is under renewed stress, meaning we need to be on watch for adjacent nearby areas to possibly show larger movement over the next week. This puts Vancouver BC (to the North), and California (to the South) in the mix over the next several days. We need to be on watch for similar (or larger) magnitude releases along the adjacent faults to this location in Washington State.
