Pair of Quakes Rattle Central Portions of Oklahoma
Two earthquakes have rattled portions of Oklahoma that are becoming accustomed to experiencing many of the temblors.
The U.S. Geological Survey recorded a 3.4 magnitude quake near Medford Sunday. Shortly before that, the survey recorded a 2.5 magnitude quake near the town of Perry.
Oklahoma has become one of the most earthquake-prone areas in the world, with the number of quakes magnitude 3.0 skyrocketing from a few dozen in 2012 to more than 720 so far this year.
