A earthquake was notified shortly before 23:00 hours today, Saturday December 19, in the entire Campi Flegrei area. There is no harm to people or things: it could be a shock of bradyseism, due to the normal activity of the great phlegreal cauldron. Clearly felt by almost the entire population, even in the westernmost districts of Naples such as Pianura and Soccavo: the residents of the area told Fanpage.it a noise similar to a roar followed by a brief movement of chandeliers, particularly in the upper floors.
The earthquake, of magnitude 2.1, had as its epicenter the area east of Pozzuoli, five kilometers from the city center. In the area Seismic phenomena of this type are particularly widespread, being a volcanic area. Often, in fact, the tremors are of very low intensity, even around 1.0, but the population feels them with the same frequency, since they occur at a very shallow depth, causing the wave to propagate much further than the tremors, perhaps even higher than the tremors. magnitude, but they often occur much deeper, causing seismic waves to disperse before they even reach the ground. A similar earthquake was clearly felt between Naples and Pozzuoli at 8:23 p.m. on December 2, causing fright among the population. Even in that case it was an event related to bradyseism, and similarly it occurred at a very shallow depth, so as not to cause damage or injury. The situation is constantly monitored by the National Institute of Geophysics and Volcanology, as well as by Civil Protection in the seismic activity survey plan.
