Earthquakes in Japan and Mexico

Postby Silver_Surfer1 » Fri Sep 8, '17, 8:51 pm

Thoughts and prayers go out to Japan and Mexico and those affected in these recent earthquakes:

Japan quake was a 5.3 and Mexico quake was an 8.1!

I have to wonder if all those missiles that North Korea has been shooting off may have anything to do with these quakes????

Probably has nothing to do with North Korea's missiles - none of Korea's missiles have gotten anywhere near Mexico. Mexico and Japan are on opposite sides of the Pacific plate near fault lines, and are both very geologically active areas for that reason. Horrible events (especially the Mexican one..8.1, wow), but have a pretty mundane explanations.
