Luke 21:11 There will be great earthquakes, famines and pestilences in various places, and fearful events and great signs from heaven.
A major earthquake struck beneath the Hawaiian city of Volcano on Saturday evening.
The 5.2 magnitude quake was the strongest of 94 quakes that have struck the region in the last two weeks.
The USGS Hawaiian Volcano Observatory said that the quake caused no injuries and it doesn’t appear that any of the volcanoes are experiencing a major change in their activity.
“HVO monitoring networks have not detected any significant changes in activity at the summits or rift zones of Kilauea or other Hawaiian volcanoes,” HVO’s Scientist-in-Charge Tina Neal said.
Five aftershocks were recorded within an hour of the main quake with the strongest measuring magnitude 3.1.
The park is home to two active volcanoes including Kulauea, considered one of the world’s most active.
The Pacific Tsunami Warning Center said the quake did not cause a tsunami in the region.
