Wonder what USGS thinks might happen next?
USGS aftershock forecasts give us an understanding of the chances of having more earthquakes within a given time period in the affected area.
Check out the aftershock forecast since the magnitude 4.5 earthquake at 8:39 pm: https://t.co/uZXkXLsYcJ
Aftershocks can also activate the ShakeAlert system. If you feel shaking or get an alert: Drop, Cover, and Hold On.
