On Sunday, a very coarse earthquake struck in Colombia, according to the United States Geological Survey.
The Temblor occurred at 8:08 am Colombia time, about 72 miles east of Bogota, Colombia, the agency data shows.
While seismologists examine the available data, they can revise the indicated scale of the earthquake. Additional information collected on the earthquake can also encourage scientists to the USGS to update the Shake-Severity card.
A replica is generally a smaller earthquake that follows a larger one in the same general area. Replicas are generally minor adjustments along the part of a flaw that slipped at the time of the initial earthquake.
Replicas can occur for days, weeks or even years after the first earthquake. These events can be of an equal or more important scale for the initial earthquake, and they can continue to affect the already damaged locations.

When repair data is available, the corresponding cards and graphics include earthquakes within 100 miles and seven days depending on the initial earthquake. All times above are Colombia time. Shake’s data is Sunday, June 8 at 9:24 am is the East. Replica data is from Sunday June 8 at 9:38 p.m. Eastern.
