Arkansas lake effect earthquakes



The earthquakes continue around the dammed lake.  Looks fairly random and I can't see a mechanism developing.  Nevertheless, we should all remember Virginia.  As I was tracking this earthquake and aftershocks there was a pattern to that lake, indicating a trigger.  However, for the life of me, I can't find a good map of all the earthquakes there.  A time sequence would be nice, as well.  Just think of this basement rock as full of big rat traps, baited and ready to go, just waiting for a little bit of water.  :)
