Rare Earthquake Strikes Delaware

"And there will be earthquakes in various places...."--says Jesus about the conditions right before his return.

Earthquake hits Delaware, rattling windows as far as D.C.

Yes, that was an earthquake. It wasn’t much of one. People conceivably have sneezed harder than the violence produced by Thursday afternoon’s earthquake. But it was unusual, centered in the normally quiescent state of Delaware, and it could be felt as far as the nation’s capital and its Virginia suburbs.

The tremor occurred at 4:47 p.m., centered about 6 miles northeast of Dover, Del., and about 5 miles deep. The U.S. Geological Survey gave varying estimates of the earthquake’s magnitude, at one point rating it as high as a 5.1 but later downgrading it to a 4.1 — a modest event that did not appear to cause any damage, much less fatalities. The Delaware Emergency Management Agency told the Dover Post that there were no reports of damage or injuries.

Geophysicist Dale Grant of the USGS said an earthquake in Delaware is “exceptionally rare.”

Yesterday there was a 6.7 on the Mid Atlantic Ridge and there were two, 6.0 quakes today.

Meanwhile rockets have begun flying into Israel from the north and the south., North Korea and USA seem to be on the brink of war and the church in America seems to be oblivious to all that is going on.
