Mt Hood is not the only volcanic area in the U.S. which is shaking to the beat of the Honshu quake this morning. Yellowstone is also experiencing a series of tremors, apparently related to this strong earthquake. Yellowstone is located at 74 degrees from the Honshu quake, near an area where FFA are expected. Earthquake have thus far been located in the Yellowstone area (MBMG) at: 14:21:33 UT 15:04:45 UT 15:29:41 UT 16:17:02 UT 16:25:43 UT and more Ignore the event of Md 3.9 recorded by the automatic system at 13:12:17 (#230) this is a bogus event from the arrival of the P-wave from Honshu. Without going into details, these do not appear to be surface wave arrivals and represent a true strong increase in seismicity at Yellowstone following the Honshu earthquake.

These appear to begin about 2 hours after the Honshu earthquake.
