(OPINION) Michael Snyder – The nightmarish earthquake swarm that has been rattling Puerto Rico since last month continues to make headlines all over the world. Homes, businesses, schools, hospitals and historic structures all over the main island of Puerto Rico have crumbled, and many residents are deeply afraid of using many of the buildings that remain standing because they are afraid that they could literally collapse at any moment.

We haven’t seen this sort of shaking in the region in more than a century, and as you will see below, experts are telling us that more quakes are coming. Traditionally, Puerto Rico has not been known for heavy seismic activity. But now that could be changing. According to CNN, there have been more than 500 quakes “of magnitude 2 or greater” since December 28th… Since December 28, more than 500 earthquakes of magnitude 2 or greater have rattled the area, according to the US Geological Survey.

Many of them were relatively shallow, which means they were likely felt on land. Of the hundreds of earthquakes, 32 were magnitude 4 and above, including the ones Monday and Tuesday. And overall, there have been “more than a thousand quakes” of all sizes since this earthquake swarm first started in December… Since the tremors began last month, Puerto Rico has experienced more than a thousand quakes, most of them too small to feel.

The mainstream media really began to take notice when the main island of Puerto Rico was hit by a magnitude 4.7 earthquake on December 28th, and that was quickly followed by a magnitude 5.0 quake. Then just a few days ago we witnessed a magnitude 5.8 quake, a magnitude 6.4 quake and a magnitude 6.0 quake in rapid succession… A 6.4 magnitude earthquake rumbled across Puerto Rico on Tuesday, killing at least one person and knocking out power to virtually the entire island of more than 3 million.
