Aardbevingszwerm treft Zuid-Californië
In het zuiden van Californië zijn de afgelopen uren tientallen kleine aardbevingen geregistreerd. De heftigste hadden een kracht van 5,5 op de schaal van Richter en hadden hun epicentrum ten oosten van San Diego, bij de grens met Mexico.

Er zijn zeker zeventig aardschokken gemeten, tot nu toe zonder ernstige schade tot gevolg.
San Andreasbreuk

Amerikaanse seismologen spreken van een actieve 'zwerm' bevingen aan de zuidrand van de San Andreasbreuk, de meest actieve sinds de jaren 70.

Ze verwachten dat die de komende dagen nog doorgaat.

Reeks aardbevingen treft Californië
LOS ANGELES - Een serie kleine aardbevingen heeft de Amerikaanse staten Californië en Arizona getroffen, meldden seismologen. De bevingen zondagavond duurden circa twee uur.

De zwaarste beving had een kracht van 5,4 op de schaal van Richter. Er zijn geen berichten over schade. Zo'n reeks bevingen is een relatief zeldzaam verschijnsel.

''We hebben zoiets meegemaakt in de jaren 70. En de vorige was in de jaren 30'', zei seismoloog Lucy Jones van de Amerikaanse dienst USGS. ''Ons systeem loopt vast door zoveel bevingen.''

Maandagochtend is een zwaardere beving gemeld voor de kust van El Salvador, met een kracht van 7,4.

Voor Costa Rica, Nicaragua, El Salvador, Honduras, Guatemala, Panama en Mexico was een tsunamiwaarschuwing uitgevaardigd, die enkele uren later werd ingetrokken.

Volgens het Pacific Tsunami Warning Centre is er voor de kust van El Salvador wel een kleine tsunami waargenomen, maar deze heeft geen schade aangericht.
