North Carolina earthquakes indicative of active fault: report

1 year ago 28

Another earthquake shook a North Carolina community on Friday, which is reportedly indicative of an old fault line that is now active. 

The U.S. Geological Survey told The Charlotte Observer that scientists don't know if the "cluster" will continue and are not sure why it has suddenly become active. 

Friday's early morning quake was magnitude 2.1 and was centered about four kilometers to the north of West Canton. 

There was only one response filed on the USGS website by a person who felt the tremor.
