Scientists Warn Reno-NV Residents Of Possible Larger Quake



Over the past few months- there has been an increasingly-stronger series of earthquakes in and around Nevada's 2nd-largest city- Reno.


Friday night- the area experienced a 4.7-magnitude quake- the strongest yet in the series.

According to the AP- at least one scientist says a 6-magnitude quake "is not out of the question"- and warns Reno area residents to prepare for the worst.

The scientist also adds that he and his colleagues have no way to predict a bigger quake and that the swarm of quakes could end as mysteriously as they began.
