You are welcome to see the color map at http://tux.wr.usgs.gov/

Note that I only felt the firstt one, but others have felt more of them. No reports of damage or injuries.

We often have a couple of quakes a day, usually near the volcano and usuakky we on the far side of the island don’t feel them.

So before you get too worried, this event is similar to you getting a sprinkling of rain every day, but yesterday you REALLY REALLY got rain.

As a side note, there is a reason we have current maps of earthquakes available out here :-)
