WTMF.

3.5 and 3.6 respectively. That might not be huge at all earthquake wise, but still managed to scare the hell out of me because I've never experienced an earthquake before. BECAUSE WE LIVE IN EFFING NORTH DALLAS.

Last one was about an hour ago.

Anyone else here feel it?

3 Texas Earthquakes Reported In Less Than 4 Hours

AND YES, DEFINITELY FRACKING.

I know we are on a big one in SC, and it's just a ticking time bomb.

I am not so cool with the fracking, ever since I found out about this unpleasant side effect.

We are.

And conveniently, Irving, the city where both earthquakes hit is a fracking site with an actively producing well.

I hadn't heard that. I didn't feel the one at 3pm, just the one at 7pm. My friend in Frisco didn't feel anything either. We're in Preston Hollow, so I guess what we felt was an aftershock?

...I have no idea how earthquakes work.

How it is deemed "safe" when it causes earthquakes is beyond me.
