A second event a 4.5R in NEPAL

Right next to the first earthquake this morning, a second but stronger earthquake shook the region, a double event today, only  29 km N of Birendranagar,as shown on the map. A second stronger earthquake raises questions as to whether this is the main one or more are coming. If the second was smaller magnitude then one could say this is aftershock, but this is obviously not so. Our Nepal calendar is shown below, for today.  As you can see it is possible to have more events this month. Be Safe Be Good.
