yes
It is called an aftershock.

There are generally more mountains on the west coast of the United States compared to the east coast. The Rocky Mountains and Sierra Nevada are prominent mountain ranges on the west coast, while the Appalachian Mountains are the major range on the east coast.
One can find more information about the East Coast Railway by going on the East Coast website which will offer information on wine services, transportation and other tourism areas.
The east coast is more heavily populated.
The two largest aftershocks from the Haitian earthquake had a magnitude of 6.0 and 5.9. The magnitude 6.0 aftershock occurred 7 minutes after the main earthquake on the 12th of January and the magnitude 5.9 aftershock occurred at 11:03 GMT on the 20th of January. Please see the related questions for more information.
They can last years LOL. I think some earthquake that happened over 200 years ago is still triggering aftershocks, I don't know if that's bulls*** or what/ But.. some last years. ENJOY :L
More people live on the east coast of the United States because it has a higher population density and larger cities such as New York, Miami, and Boston. The west coast also has a significant population, particularly in cities like Los Angeles, San Francisco, and Seattle, but the east coast overall has a larger population.
Over 72,000 people been killed in haiti now they just found a buried school
west coast has alot drier, fluffier, and usally more snow than the east coast. if you are shopping for west coast skis, you would probibly look that a "rocker" ski. and if you are shopping for a east coast you would want a stiffer ski and one that you could really hold a edge with on the east coast ice
Chicago, Illinois, is closer to the East Coast. It is situated on the southwestern shore of Lake Michigan and is approximately 1,000 miles from the Atlantic Ocean. In comparison, it is about 1,800 miles from the Pacific Coast. Thus, Chicago is geographically aligned more with the East Coast.
