HEADS UP !!!Checked 4+ quake history in nearby locations to Delaware.
Nearest and only ones during the last 100 years were in PENNSYLVANIA 1984 and 1994 (about 100miles from todays location).
CALIFORNIA INDEED MIGHT GET A STRONG QUAKE OF OVER 6 MAGNITUDE. History eerily confirms the various posts over the last days concerning California, thank you all for being vigilant.
BE SAFE, HAVE A PLAN. This is not Finland trolling, look for yourself on usgs anss catalog and wikipedia.
1984-04-23 4.2 Pennsylvania
1984-04-24 6.2 NORTHERN CALIFORNIA

-Finland (really hope nothing will happen)
Quoting: Anonymous Coward 5648110 Wow...within 24 hours. BOTH times!
Quoting: Simple27 I decided to dig into this to keep myself distracted and wanted to add to our Finland friend's research.
The correlation between EQ's in these two locations doesn't seem to have to be within a 24 hour period. I did some searching and the below EQ's were notable, imo, along with the two Finland already mentioned (which are included).
Finland, if you can build off of this even further, or add any insight/thoughts/opinions, please do.
The following are in month/day/year format...
10/09/1871 ~ 4.1 Wilmington Area, Delaware
03/26/1872 ~ 7.4-7.9 Eastern California
(approximately five and a half months apart)06/01/1927 ~ unsure of magnitude (but notable online) New Jersey
11/04/1927 ~ 7.3 Central Coast California
(approximately five months apart)09/03/1951 ~ 4.4 New York
07/21/1952 ~ 7.3 Central Valley California
(almost eleven months apart)03/27/1964 ~ 9.2 Anchorage, Alaska
05/12/1964 ~ 4.5 near Cornwall, Pennsylvania
(reverse scenario / a little over a year apart)02/21/1973 ~ 5.8 South Coast California
02/28/1973 ~ 3.8 Delaware (in or near Delaware River)
(reverse scenario / seven days apart)04/23/1984 ~ 4.2 Pennsylvania
04/24/1984 ~ 6.2 South Bay California
(one day or less than 24 hours apart)01/16/1994 ~ 4.0
AND 4.6-4.7 (minutes apart) Pennsylvania
01/17/1994 ~ 6.7 Los Angeles Area California
(one day or less than 24 hours apart)09/25/1998 ~ 5.2 Meadville, Pennsylvania
10/16/1999 ~ 7.1 Eastern California
(just over one year apart)04/04/2010 ~ 7.2 Baja, California
