Thread Name: BS: 7.2 quake Baja Calif Mexico
Subject: RE: BS: 7.2 quake Baja Calif Mexico
Just watched a press conference by a seismologist at Cal Tech.

She said expect more triggered quake events (not just after shockes) for days, farther away from the epicenter.

The last earthquake about this size in southern California triggered quakes in days afterward even in Nevada.

There is a 5% chance that there will be a quake in larger magnitude than the 7.2. She said it is likely that there will be another quake in that area of around 6 in coming days.
