Arkansas cities feel unexplained surge in earthquakes

If you live in Arkansas, you must be wondering just what is going on beneath your feet.  It would seem the earthquake fault line that extends through the central part of America is coming to life.  (We have bloged about this before).  This fault line, known as the New Madrid fault, has been quite deadly in the past, and is now coming back to life.

Jesus warned that there would be an increase in seismic activity as the days of his return approached.  This means all areas of the world, including North America.

There will be great earthquakes, famines and pestilences in various places, and fearful events and great signs from heaven. Luke 21:11 NIV

From the article:

Several small earthquakes ranging in magnitude from 1.8 to 3.8 have rattled the north-central Arkansas cities of Greenbrier and Guy this week, and the cause is unknown. The U.S. Geological Survey has reported more than 30 earthquakes in the area since Sunday, including a magnitude 3.8 quake Thursday morning and at least 16 others occurring Wednesday, two of which were magnitude 3.2 and 3.5. More than 700 quakes have occurred in the region over the past six months. Scott Ausbrooks, geohazards supervisor for the Arkansas Geological Survey, said the quakes are part of what is now called the Guy earthquake swarm — a series of mild earthquakes that have been occurring periodically since 2009. A similar swarm occurred in the early 1980s when a series of quakes hit Enola, Ark.
