THE QUAKE BOARD

WHAT THIS PAGE IS. The USGS feed, drawn plainly. It refreshes when you load the page; the timestamp above says exactly when. Dot size is physical magnitude and nothing else — no colour for "how bad," no shading, no trend line, no threshold.

WHAT IT IS NOT. A prediction. Roughly fifty M2.5+ earthquakes happen on an ordinary day. The board shows the ordinary days and the extraordinary ones with the same face.
