Things Are A Bit Shaky In Arkansas

GUY, AR — The Unites States Geological Survey is reporting a 4.7 magnitude eathquake in Arkansas.

The USGS says the shaker hit at about 11:00 Sunday night.
The center of the quake was about 4 miles Northeast of Greenbrier, AR and 4 miles south of Guy, AR.

Several people called the KSPR newsroom Sunday night, saying they felt the quake in Branson and Aurora.
These quakes have been coming closer together and more intensely.  I cannot help but think of the Bible verse that says these are birthing pains.  Normally, folks think of California when earthquakes come up, but we have been overdue for a long time.  Maybe the old-timers are right, and the New Madrid fault is going to finally give way.
