Earthquake In St. Thomas

I just returned from a two-week family vacation to St. Thomas (U.S. Virgin Islands). We had a great time…definitely a beautiful place to travel. We visited Dost Van Dyke, Tortola and a tiny uninhabited island which takes a whole 5 minutes to circumvent.

While in St. Thomas, we had a minor earthquake just last week. After further research I discovered that this was a norm. Virgin Islands has had: (M1.5 or greater)
2 earthquakes today
18 earthquakes in the past 7 days
74 earthquakes in the past month
763 earthquakes in the past year

Needless to say, I am glad to be home in Canada!
