Today, March 16th at 15:15 pm, one has just been notified strong earthquake in Naples, in particular the areas that felt the earthquake were those adjacent to the area of Solfatara. Citizens of the areas of Pozzuoli, Bagnoli, Agnano and Fuorigrotta they clearly felt the shock and many people poured into the street abandoning their homes and offices.

 It is therefore suspected that more than an earthquake it is bradyseism. This suspicion is motivated by the fact that only the solfatara station detected it significantly, in fact the measurements of Vesuvius and Ischia were found to be significantly lower.

Update: 16.10

The National Earthquake Observatory (INGV) entered the data concerning the earthquake:
Magnitude Md 3.5 occurred in the area: Campi Flegrei, with geographic coordinates (lat, lon) 40.82714.14 to a depth of 3 km.

Having been so shallow it was clearly felt by the population.
