Description

Will there be a 3.0+ earthquake in the contiguous lower 48 US states in the next 3 days (Hawaii and Alaska don't count)? The bet may resolve itself early if a 3.0+ earthquake occurs before the April 5 , 10 pm EST deadline.

Decision Logic

The record of US earthquakes is recorded at https://earthquake.usgs.gov/earthquakes/map/ Should there be a 3.0+ earthquake between April 2, 10 pm EST to April 5, 10 pm EST then the bet will resolve as "yes." If not, "no."

Hi Asnoman and Zippy, yes the bet is over early. I reported it to the moderator yesterday. California sure does have a lot of earthquakes (I know, I used to live in Monterey, CA lol), but all in the past few days have been just shy of 2.9. You can check out earthquakes around the world as they occur at the USGS website mentioned in the description. Best- Alpha

I believe there is a 3.0+ earthquake most days just in California.

All, as of April 4, 2017 @ 7:04 am (EST) there has yet to be a 3.0+ in the lower 48 US states... https://earthquake.usgs.gov/earthquakes/map/ One more day...

Oops, looks like it was my mistake in reading the site. Sorry about that. Carry on.

Hi praine, I don't see it. The times at USGS are in UTC, the bet is EST so the Ohio earthquake happened previous to the start of the bet and the others above 3.0 are not in the lower 48 states. Did I miss one?

Happened already.
