Coverage and Methodology
This state page queries the USGS catalog using a rectangular geographic bounding box: longitude -89.57 to -81.96, latitude 36.5 to 39.15. The default view covers the past 30 days at M2.0+. It is a catalog view, not a risk rating, prediction or emergency alert.
Up to 2,000 newest matching events are loaded into the explorer. The displayed total is obtained separately from USGS when more events match.
