๐Ÿ”Ž Regional instrumental seismicity in Colombia. The colored dots represent the #earthquakes that have struck the region [using @ISCseism catalog -1960 to 2020- and @emsc data -from 2021 onwards]:
๐Ÿ”Ž Deadliest #earthquakes that occurred in recent years within 300km of #Medina (#Colombia): 25/01/1999 a M5.7 led to 1900 casualties, 09/02/1967 a M6.8 led to 98 casualties, and on 24/05/2008 a M5.9 led to 6 casualties.
๐Ÿ‘‰#Earthquakes cannot be predicted. For an #earthquake prediction to be meaningful, it has to specify a time, location & magnitude range that is unlikely to occur randomly. This is currently impossible. Learn more in this video from @EarthScope_sci๐Ÿ‘‡
