Eight (8) long period events which were recorded at most seismic stations occurred. Several small long period events and a few episodes of isolated (short duration), low amplitude, broadband tremor were also recorded by the Gages seismic station. One small regional earthquake of magnitude about 3.0 was recorded at 20:48 on 02 January and occurred approximately 100 km from Montserrat.
