Earthquake: Back to back quakes of 4.4 and 5.2 centered around 200 miles away from Madrid struck Spain earlier today. The earthquakes lead to dozens of injuries and minor damage to the area. Also, a seismologist predicted in 1915 that a major quake would strike Rome, Italy today- leading to 1 in 5 Italians to stay out of work and school. The same seismologist correctly predicted two earlier major earthquakes that struck Italy. Tremors were felt in Italy from the quake that struck about 800 miles to the west today.
