FILE - In this April 20, 2016, file photo, Nevada Seismological Laboratory Director Graham Kent speaks in Reno, Nev., about how cameras serving as virtual fire lookouts at Lake Tahoe utilize an existing earthquake monitoring network to help with early detection of lightning strikes and wildfires. The Nevada Seismological Lab is keeping a close eye on a swam of dozens of small earthquakes that have been recorded in recent days in Sun Valley north of Reno and a larger one earlier this month south of Reno. Lab Director Graham Kent says a sequence of 60 earthquakes that began in Sun Valley early Wednesday, June 19, 2019, were too small to be felt. But he says swarms like this have a history of both subsiding and escalating. (AP Photo/Scott Sonner, File)
