Carnegie Museum curator Dr. Audey Avinoff warned that another quake of this scale is unlikely for a century, noting the region’s secure geological formation and that the disturbance was a minor, near-surface readjustment. He cited tectonic processes and contrasted them with volcanic earthquakes, while downplaying links to Lake Erie water shifts.
