It depends on the lenght and also the depth of the fault in order to give an 8 and over quake.
Quoting: Ostria1 Yes and that's why you don't see multiple sixes on Italy. Thus it is not the location. |

Perugia is loaded with 300 year old buildings made of tufa stone. The devastation is going to be incredible.

This is heartbreaking.
Quoting: -Haun- yeah "just" north if you by "just" mean 300 km away. [ link to www.google.it (secure)] Perugia has nothing to do with this quake, it's several kilometers north. The quake hit an area between 3 regions, the biggest city nearby is Rieti. The Vesuvio will wake up and erupt one day, this is certain, but it will NOT do it because of this quake, just like it hasn't in the past. This is a completely different fault. Quoting: HicManebimusOptime That entire region is referred to as Perugia in Southern Italy which is where I lived. All of the faults in Italy are connected. You should know this. They are also all very close because of how the landscape of Italy is constructed and its topographical features. You also know Vesuvio and Salfatara are monitored and increased efforts are being made right now, at this time, to watch the lava domes not only visually but through instrumentation. Salfatara itself has street level vents in Naples and Pozzuoli which are easily accessed. If you've ever driven or walked into Naples from the south you would also know this. 300 klics in eruption zones are nothing especially in a zone like Italy again because of its topographical nature. I'm very glad they have increased their awareness of what is happening now, and hopefully nothing will come of it. Keep them in your prayers. |

Quoting: Ostria1 Yes and that's why you don't see multiple sixes on Italy. Thus it is not the location. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 52260488 the strongest quake ever recorded in italy was a 7.4. In southern italy some 7.0-7.4/7.5 is possible, in central italy the strongest quake ever recorded is a 6.9 (but a little bit south of today's quake). You won't see any 8 or higher in italy because the faults here are different than the ones in the pacific ring of fire, for example. HicManebimusOptime |

Quoting: -Haun- Perugia is a city, the capital of the region of UMBRIA. So Perugia is not a region and it's not in southern italy, but in central italy. Perugia has not suffered any damage, nor have many villages and town whose buildings have been upgrated to the new anti-seismic standards after the latest quakes during the last years of the 20th century. The majority of the casualties lived in very old medieval villages and in very old houses that could not withstand such a quake. If a simple quake could set off the Vesuvio this quake, the 6.9 that struck Irpinia in 1980 (very near to Naples -which suffered damages itself), would have definitely done it but it hasn't. The last eruption of Vesuvio happened in 1944. [ link to en.wikipedia.org (secure)] Of course the Vesuvio and Campi Flegrei (including the Solfatara) are monitored 24/7 because 3 milions people are living in that area and there aren't any serious organized plan to evacuate Naples and the surrounding urban area. Their only chance to survive is to evacuate as soon as there is any concrete evidence of an incoming eruption. HicManebimusOptime |
