Did You Feel It?
Two earthquakes shook most of Costa Rica yesterday, reports the Observatorio Vulcanológico y Sismológico (Ovsicori) de la Universidad Nacional.

The first, registering at 4.1 on the Richter scale centred 25 kilometres northwest of Quepos, occurred at 9:15am. The shake was also felt in Jacó and the Central Valley.

At 2:58pm, a second quake registering 3.5 on the Richter scale centred about 15km East of Parrita and was also felt in San José.

Both quakes are believed to be aftershocks of the quake that hit the area on November 20, 2004.
