You can see the 4.8 on this one SNOW.IW..BHZ.2010.217 which is Snow King Mountain, Wyoming but not much in the way of after shocks. Here it is again on the recorder at Red Top Meadow REDW.IW..BHZ.2010.217 and of course Teton Pass TPAW.IW..BHZ.2010.217

None of these really showing aftershocks. Ah go one, have B944 as well - B944.PB..EHZ.2010.217

I am guessing that is wind at around 02:00

It did not make it to Gods Own Repeater station. You can just make it out MGOD.AV..EHZ.2010.217 at 00:07 and the wiggle at just before 00:46 is the 2.5 shown below.

Good night All!

PS The one at 13:06+ on the Utah plot is the 6.4 at Andreanof

Well OK, but how about this one?

quake.utah.edu...

Looks very clean to me and shows what looks to be at least one clear aftershock, at 1:21 UTC.

Revised

MAP 4.8 2010/08/05 00:04:18 43.585 -110.440 5.0 WYOMING

MAP 3.0 2010/08/05 00:04:03 43.585 -110.438 5.0 WYOMING

Interesting! So there were two quakes, in the same spot. The 4.8 after the 3.0 foreshock. I wonder if the delay in updating aftershocks is because they are busy making similar decisions. It also looks like there may have been an aftershock or two immediately after the 4.8.

Double post. deleted.


I don't want to keep posting in multiple threads so I'll keep my updates to the Giant Yellowstone Thread of Doom, but the area is definitely experiencing aftershocks, clearly visible in the past half hour on the MOOW webicorder. All further updates on the Yellowstone thread for me unless there's some clearly separate event to talk about.

EMSC is 6.8Mw using the same source of data (NEIC)
Geofon is 6.7 Unk Mag
on the other hand
Aussie gets 7.1 Unk Mag

the Russians must have gone to bed, nothing on yet

Just a followup, the Russians are up now

If USGS dont downgrade it then that will make it to 20 quakes 7+ this year.

2 more and will surpass the total for the entire of 2009.

I thought this might interest readers of this thread

Obviously, I have written to those concerned with this nationwide project to inform them that we already possess the power of earthquake prediction in the form of PuterMan.. (why do I now see capes and Lyrca when I say PuterMan? )

Universities, communities, and landowners across the United States are playing hosts to an earthquake grid, connected by the Internet, that gathers, analyzes, and transmits data about seismic activity at hundreds of sites. The USArray research project is funded by the federal National Science Foundation (NSF) and is part of the larger foundation project, EarthScope. The two projects, which are associated with each other, are meant to help assess and reduce risks in areas of high seismic activity and get us closer to predicting earthquakes.

If you go back to my post and click the Teton Pass link you can see that the 1:21 UTC is actually very small and a micro quake like the rest on the page apart from the big one. Teton Pass for yesterday seems to have a problem as I think you or someone commented. TPAW.IW..BHZ.2010.216

I have just got the UoU plot for yesterday so I will take a look at that later. (Have to go out for a while)

BTW this quake is not in YNP so does belong here. You can just link back rather than double post.

yikes - again

Aftershock in Wyoming:

Let us hope that "aftershock" is the proper word

Fox Islands After-shocks

The area close to the Cleveland Volcano, and its relatively close dozen companions, an area known as the Fox Islands is definitely having a good series of after-shocks with 137 quakes over the past 7 days in this area. [Edited to use correct terminology! ]

[atsimg]http://files.abovetopsecret.com/images/member/a35e163bcc2a.png[/atsimg]

These are the biggest over the past 7 days which whilst only 4+ are significant for the number in a fairly small area. (The area above is about 60 x 90 miles)

On the 18th and 19th July there were a huge number of quakes and even some days after the numbers were significant.

This is the cumulative since 16th July.
