Two earthquakes or P and S waves?

Hi all,

I picked up this earthquake and was wondering if these are two back to back quakes, or just one earthquake with a distinct P and S wave?

Thank you!

Hello VS1,

Could you please tell me the ID code of your Shake? So that I can do a couple of checks and see what we are looking on?

Thank you!

Hello VS1,

Looking through some of your data, I feel that this event could be a pair of back-to-back quakes, in particular, if they are local. That shape could also show a more distant quake with distinct P and PcP arrivals.

I’m not 100% sure, however, so if anyone else in the community wants to add their thoughts, feel free.

Those look like earthquake events, based purely on the profile.

If it is one event, based upon the timing, it would be very roughly 120km from you.
Normally, I would look at nearby devices to see if/what they recorded. But since you don’t have any near neighbors to look at, that option isn’t available.
