11km (7mi) ENE of Road Town, British Virgin Islands

I see now...thats because there were 2....one was 7km away, the other was 100km away.

According to the US Geological Survey - http://goo.gl/cdVn6o - there were 7 shakes on 8/19 in that area ranging from a 2.7 109km NE of the DR to a 4.8 112km north of Road Town.

There was a 2.9 registered 11km ENE of Road Town

(I love the internet!)

Thanks for that. The one wasn't far off our dock! Hope it didn't crack. Now just have to survive the hurricane!
