Over eight score quakes have hit the small community area of Brawley, CA in the past 21 hours. At last count, 162 quakes have struck the county along the Mexican Border. The area affected lies on the Imperial Fault Zone. This fault is directly south of San Andreas fault.

Six of these quakes measured over 4.0, the strongest being magnitude 5.5. Many quakes are occurring one to 5 minutes apart.

The quakes are reminiscent of the El Hierro quakes that began in July of 2011, and after thousands of quakes a new volcano formed off the south tip of La Restinga.This area is remote and away from heavily populated areas.

It should be noted that the USGS failed to report any of the El Hierro quakes.

We will keep you updated as time allows. Quake map and full report below.
