Felt it in midtown OKC. The longest rumble I've felt since we moved here.

These wells produce an enormous amount of water. These earthquake are said to be a result of water disposal well where they basically pump the water back in

I have a well down the road from me that has been producing for maybe a year or more. I see more water trucks hauling from it than oil trucks at probably 6:1 ratio
