Corrected - Quake in Chile set off tremors in California-US study

(Corrects 2nd paragraph to show that 500 people were killed and to show more than one tsunami struck)

A devastating earthquake in Chile last year may have set off a swarm of smaller quakes as far away as California, U.S. researchers reported on Friday.

They found evidence that the magnitude 8.8 quake in Chile, which killed 500 people and set off tsunamis that devastated coastal cities last February, set off a chain of events 10,000 km (6,200 miles) away.

US: More Aftershocks Rattle Monterey County Following 4.5 Magnitude Earthquake

The U.S. Geological Survey reported another pair of magnitude 3.0 and larger earthquakes struck Wednesday evening near Monterey County, less than a day after a 4.5-magnitude tremor and numerous aftershocks rattled the region.

The largest earthquakes this evening - one with a magnitude of 3.7 and the other with a magnitude of 3.9 - shook an area seven miles west of Prunedale at 7:54 p.m. and 8 p.m., respectively.

Since Wednesday morning, that area of the hills bordering Monterey and San Benito counties has experienced 27 earthquakes following the magnitude 4.5 quake that punctuated the day's seismic activity.

That tremor struck near Fremont Peak State Park at 12:51 a.m., according to the USGS, and had a depth of 1.8 miles. The epicenter was located 10 miles east-southeast of Prunedale and 45 miles south-southeast of San Jose.

Most of the aftershocks had a magnitude between 1.1 and 2.9, but four of the 27 measured 3.0 or larger.

Second earthquake in a fortnight hits the North of England

Earthquake measured 3.6 on the Richter scale - People living near the epicentre describe a 'rumbling' noise

The second earthquake in a fortnight rocked the North of England last night.

People near the epicentre in Ripon, in North Yorkshire, reported hearing what they described as an 'explosion' or a 'rumbling' when the quake hit.

It measured 3.6 on the Richter scale and experts estimate the tremor happened four miles below ground level.

Just a fortnight ago Coniston, in Cumbria, was struck by tremors measuring 3.5.

Last night's earthquake happened just after 9pm and caused worried people to run from their homes to safety.

It was felt across Cumbria, Greater Manchester and West Yorkshire.

Chris Allinson, 17, was watching television with his family in Ripon when the quake rattled their home.

The A-level student, who is studying at Giggleswick School, said: 'I heard a loud rumbling like the sound of a big tractor passing the house outside.

'Things started shaking and the dogs started barking. It got louder and louder and I jumped up to get outside.

'Then there was just this rush of sound like a snowdrift falling from a tiled roof, and after that, silence. We stood outside and stared at each other.'
