A swarm of minor earthquakes that have rattled northwest Reno for nearly three months continued Thursday with another measurable jolt.

Seismologists at the University of Nevada, Reno revised the magnitude of the 6:44 a.m. temblor to 3.4, up from a 3.2.

There were no reports of damage or injuries.

It's the latest in a series of quakes of varying magnitudes that began Feb. 28.

In recent days, the seismic activity appeared to have diminished, with fewer quakes being recorded.

The largest so far was a 4.7 quake on April 25.

The swarm has produced thousands of quakes, with hundreds greater than magnitude 1.

I Have a Pomeranian Dog, when She feels the quakes, She usually comes direcly to me. Whats kinda wierd is that she'll eather wake me up if i'm sleeping or inturupt me in what I'm doing and she wants me to inspect my house and surrounding,, THEN she just calms down. Thats all. My Vet says that my dog is the most calmest of dogs he;s seen since the quakes started. There's also 2 other pom's, same breed as mine, there also calm...ish but they panic more than mine. According to vet.
