There were a few earthquakes the past few days.  I personally did not feel any of them, but my wife felt one of the first ones.  She called me right after the 3.0 near Grand Prairie at 12:01am 10-31-2008.  She said the floor was shaking back and forth and only lasted for a few seconds.  Not enough to move anything on the tables.  More like when some one rocks a car that you are sitting in.

Here is a link to the USGS showing a list of the recent quakes in the DFW area.  USGS earthquake list.  Below is a Google Earth view of the quakes supplied by the USGS.  The orange and yellow dots are the quakes.  Orange means past day and yellow mean past week.  Click the picture for a better resolution.

There has been a lot of new gas drilling activity around the DFW airport in the past years.  One news story from WFAA said that the USGS is looking into whether it might have something to do with the ground shifting.

Will update when I get some time.
