The table below lists the quakes during the past week that were M2.0 or larger in the central part of the coverage area. For the Hector aftershocks, we have only listed M2.5 and larger, and, in the perepheral areas, only quakes larger than M2.5 are listed. Times are local times; if you want Greenwich Mean Time, add 7 hrs to the Pacific Daylight Time or 8 hrs to the Pacific Standard Time listed.
