There are small earthquakes in this area almost constantly (not many this year though). The most memorable one we've experienced was in 2003. There's a link below to the USGS report about this quake which gives info on the tectonic plates causing the problem. This current flurry of activity probably means we'll have more - hopefully not as large as the 7.8 in 2003 - that was pretty frightening. Even though there was literally no damage here in La Manzanilla, both Colima and Manzanillo sustained serious damage from that one. http://www.usgs.gov/newsroom/article.asp?ID=214 |
