    A key to that map would be helpful. What are the red dotted lines? Big circles vs small circles vs stars?

    Also, that map would be nice to have without all the earthquake stuff on there. That's one of the better looking barangay maps I've seen.

    Apparently that was another of those "Fake News" stories. Here is what Phivolcs is saying:

    No, they do NOT know for sure that there will be more quake due to yada yada . . . of course they don't know for sure and its people spreading the fake news that they DO know and are warning of more quakes that should be told. Consider yourself told.

    I know there will be more earthquakes in the area and I know there will be stronger ones. Of course I have no f'n idea when that will happen or what may cause them.

    I think they are just stating they have not issued any earthquake warnings. In the article they pretty much state they don't know what is causing it and are still trying to find it. It is Sun Star that came up with that title. I do not see where Philvolcs is quoted saying that in the article.

    There are a few things that annoy me in the article:

    Stop believing everything you read on social media! Have we not learned out lessons on this yet? (R

    They are just making up words. The only reference online I could find to earthquake "swamps" that wasn't about Valencia/Dumaguete is one article title mentioning it about Mount St. Helens (but was called "swarms" in the article). "Does not quite fit the definition"....well, what exactly is the definition of an "earthquake swamp"?

    If you go here ( Mapcentral - Philippine Map Online ) and zoom out, then work your way down the Map to Negros, you can then zoom right in and can see all of the Barangay Outlines for Negros Oriental as well as all other Islands in the Philippines;

    It's obvious. This is the Philippines. They study these things and probably followed Mt. St. Helens closely. They read "swarms" back then and remembered it meant many in series, but remembered it as "swamps".

    I passed the article on to my brother in law, a geophysicist. He thinks the professor at Siliman is correct.
    Apparently magma moves around all the time.
    These earthquakes could become very interesting or maybe not.
