Because of a lack of measurable strain at the surface in some areas of the seismic zone over the past 14 years, arguments have been advanced that there is no buildup of stress at depth within the New Madrid seismic zone and that the zone may no longer pose a significant hazard.
Some scientists believe the probability of a large earthquake (magnitude 7.0-8.0) is about 10% in 50 years. Due to their infrequency, the recurrence interval of moderate to large earthquakes in the NMSZ is very hard to predict.
