Felt in Round Rock Texas today, I thought my boss started shaking my computer chair and I turned around and nobody was there. Numerous other employees felt the same.

Never heard of a judge making a disaster declaration especially when the damage is likely to be relatively light.

I live in Los Angeles. We use 5.1 earthquakes to stir our coffee in the morning.

I'm here in Cisco Texas a couple of days ago, my RV started gently rocking for about 3 seconds, I thought there was an animal on my roof or something, never thought I'd been through an Earthquake.

The tectonic plates are shifting big time! This tells me we have more major earthquakes to follow!

I was in Marin County across from SF in the 1989 Loma Prieta earthquake of 6.9. Being in an open field at the moment, it felt pretty cool. Not cool for the 67 lives lost in the city. These Texas quakes are going to have to rumble harder to get my attention.

There's an old Fault line in Austin

We moved away from rural (active fracking) West Texas 7 years ago because of the earthquakes. They happened every day and it became comical to witness the small town’s government start to deny that what was felt “WERE NOT” earthquakes but rather…”KIDS LIGHTING FIREWORKS” strong enough to shake the pictures off our walls every day….🤔🤦🏼‍♀️

I live just north of Houston, and what's weird is, earlier in the week, when the wind wasn't blowing and normally my backyard in-ground pool is still (filter was off), I noticed these ripples going across the pool, like little mini waves which I hadn't seen before. They went in one direction and then seemed to reverse and go in the opposite direction. Wonder if this underground movement or disturbance was related?

Blind faults can get lubricated due to salt water disposal in the deep injection wells. It is frack waste fluid related. Monitoring can pin point the epicenters and foci of the EQs and relate those locations to active disposal wells.

A large area in northeast Brazil is is sinking due to fracking. Many people lost their homes and are battling in court to get some relief.
