SPARKS, Okla. (AP) — Another small earthquake has been reported in Oklahoma.
The U.S. Geological Survey says a 3.2 magnitude quake struck just before 6 a.m. Sunday about 27 miles northeast of Oklahoma City. The Logan County Sheriff's Office says no damage was reported
On Saturday, a 2.4 magnitude tremor was recorded at about 7 a.m. about 50 miles northeast of Oklahoma City near Sparks.
Sunday's earthquake is the sixth in the area since Thursday, when a 3.7 magnitude quake was recorded near Prague. Three more were recorded Friday.
A 5.6 magnitude quake, the strongest ever recorded in Oklahoma, shook the state Nov. 5. That quake damaged dozens of homes, buckled a highway and caused other damage.
Geologists say earthquakes with magnitudes of 2.5 to 3.0 are generally the smallest felt by humans.

Here on the Big Island of Hawaii, we have an average of 10 earthquakes each day ... over 3,000 each year!

Well no wonder our dog and 2 cats were acting weird! We always know when there is a quake as our dog seems to be quake sensitive no matter where on the planet it happens. To bad us humans don't have that instinct.

Having grown up in California, once lived 20 miles from Parkfield, shakest city in the world, and now living in Alaska, home of the largest recorded earthquake in North American history,

You get used to them, but you folks in the midwest live within a few hundred miles or less from the largest unrecorded earthquakes in North American history, The New Madrid earthquakes of 1811-1812,
