But this wasn't an aftershock of the Aug 21st quake as it's in a different location right?

Didn't feel a thing, I wonder if it caused any abnormal waves in Orange Valley with the boats.
I'll ask

UWI Seismic Research Centre wrote:As you are aware, there were two earthquakes near Trinidad during the evening of 9th Sept. The first, of magnitude 4.0, occurred at 7:53 p.m., followed at 11:34 p.m. by a magnitude 4.2 event. These earthquakes are not part of the aftershock sequence that began on 21st August with the magnitude 6.9 event. They belong to the normal annual earthquake activity expected from the complex fault systems north of Trinidad and in the Gulf of Paria and are, therefore, not, in and of themselves, indicative of anything more significant to come. It should be noted, however, that an aftershock, from the 6.9 on 21st August, in the magnitude range 6.1-6.5 can occur and be consistent with what is expected for that sequence, as the system settles. An important point to remember is that strong earthquakes, like the 6.9, are also a normal part of the activity pattern, as are those of even larger magnitude and those will also, one day, occur. We, therefore, should ensure that we are always prepared.


On a side note, apparently there was just another one. I didn't feel it myself but was told about it.

Nope...they need to ramp up. Less and the strain builds. More and the strain eases off
