If you guessed “55″ you’re right.
According to http://www.geophys.washington.edu/recenteqs/, the PNW has had 55 quakes since September 9th. Of course they are small quakes but that still should speak loudly to us all.
The largest earthquake since September 9th was listed as a 3.4 quake on 09/30/09 at 8:10 pm and located 6 miles WSW of Shelton, WA. And the newest quakes… see if any of these in October are near you.
