Volcano Discovery, Keeping Track of Earthquakes in Croatia and Beyond

By 10 January 2021

January 10, 2021 – Even the most number-obsessed among the people living in Central Croatia have given up on counting the number of earthquakes we’ve felt in the last 15 or so days, but luckily, there are websites to help with that.

Almost every day you see a new article on Total Croatia News about yet another earthquake felt in Croatia. So, how many were there in total? A website named Volcano Discovery (please, let’s not even go there!) keeps valuable statistics, and you can see the most important information here:

On their site, which is regularly updated, they tell us more: “During the past 30 days, Croatia was shaken by 1 quake of magnitude 6.4, 2 quakes between 5.0 and 6.0, 21 quakes between 4.0 and 5.0, 60 quakes between 3.0 and 4.0, and 252 quakes between 2.0 and 3.0. There were also 331 quakes below magnitude 2.0 which people don't normally feel.“ (those numbers will change if there are more earthquakes)

There are many more numbers and graphs you can examine, if that's your thing, to find out more about what's been happening below the feet of the people living in Central Croatia.

To give you an idea of how active things are at the moment, here is the report from the last few hours in Croatia.
