Yesterday (8-July-2020) at 17:41 UTC an magnitude Mw4,2 earthquake took place in the Tj\u00f6rnes Fracture Zone. This earthquake was closer to land than other earthquakes and was felt over a wide area. The fault line that created this earthquake has almost north to south direction. The earthquake swarm that started on 19-June-2020 is ongoing but the amount of earthquakes that have been happening has dropped over the last few days to just around 300 earthquakes over 48 hour time period.<\/p>\n

The risk of a strong earthquake with magnitude Mw6,0 to Mw7,0 remains in the area and is going to do so for a while after this earthquake activity ends.
