Figure out how to geolocate only cascadia quakes #1

USGS gives feed of all quakes like so:

https://earthquake.usgs.gov/earthquakes/feed/v1.0/summary/all_hour.geojson OR https://earthquake.usgs.gov/earthquakes/feed/v1.0/summary/all_day.geojson

More info

Nest to see if events are near CSZ. +/- 100 miles from coast from BC to CA? Might need to ask an expert about this.

Are there arguments to add to the JSON call? That seems resource-heavy on their side. Might just want to do it on my end.

Going off of maps in this National Science Foundation informational packet and I eye-balled it with just north of border to just south of Eureka, CA. Just west of Vancouver Island and about as far east as Bend.

if (quakeid not in old):
    # These could be interpreted as ints or floats, should standardize as float
    newlon   = float(exact[0])
    newlat   = float(exact[1])
    newdepth = float(exact[2])
    # See: https://github.com/robertdenton/cascadiaquakes/issues/
    # and (40.6 < newlat < 49.6)
    if (-128.8 < newlon < -121.3) and (40.6 < newlat < 49.6):
        logger.debug("{0}, {1}: CASCADIA!!!".format(newlon, newlat))
