I did a little googling - apparently, they have a pretty high incidence of earthquakes there.

Why are they showing tomorrow's date? They all say Sat Mar 4 0000.

And chances are that at least 3 days next week will have a higher than average incidence too...Bystander said:The cluster at 64 W, 19 N is what caught my eye. Everything showing is today --- "slightly" higher than "average" incidence.
