Huge earthquake on the way?

reply to post by VitalOverdose


The "Big One" could be in Los Angeles. I keep hearing Los Angeles and Big Earthquake from a lot of sources.

todays from reuters

MIAMI (Reuters) - Hurricane Bill, the first of the 2009 Atlantic season, gathered strength and grew into a dangerous Category 4 storm with sustained winds of up to 135 mph on Wednesday, the U.S. National Hurricane Center said.

the world is moving obviously.

i don't know what to think, it remind me a bad movie, when one of the character say "don't worry, stay calm people there is nothing to fear" and suddenly the roof fall on his head because of a earthquake.

The quake map is now at 268.. thats a hell of a drop in activity seeing as it was 312 yesterday.

I too was under the impression that having a lot of smaller quakes reduced the chance of a big one hitting due to the release of pressure. I would be more worried if activity had stopped completely over a few months to years.

Ive only just started watching the earthquake map but judging by the amount we have every day if they stopped for 2 days in a row id be worried.

I guess this wasnt a bad prediction after all then.

Amazing.

Just Amazing.



ATS could see this coming before it happened.

Wow.

S&F

It has indeed been assumed that an earthquake lessens the chance of future quakes by relieving stress in the plates. But that doesn't seem to be working. Could it be because the stress is increasing at a faster rate than before? Could the plates actually be moving faster than they did a few decades ago? Or could they be experiencing more stress than they did?

I'm no earthquake expert, but it does look to me as though something is changing. For some reason, I am reminded of a vision by a boy named Joe Brandt that I heard about some time ago (I think there have been threads about it on ATS even).

It was then that I felt myself lifted up. Maybe I had died. I don't know. But I was over the city. It was tilting toward the ocean-like tilting a picnic table. The buildings were holding, better than you could believe. They were holding. They were holding. The people saw they were holding and they tried to cling to them or get inside. It was fantastic. Like a building had a will of its own. Everything else breaking around them, and they were holding, holding. I was up over them-looking down. I started to root for them. Hold that line, I said. Hold that line. Hold that line. I wanted to cheer, to shout, to scream. If the buildings held, those buildings on the Blvd., maybe the girl-the girl with the two kids-maybe she could get inside.

It looked that way for a long time, maybe three minutes, and three minutes was like forever. Everybody was trying to get inside. They were going to hold. You knew they were going to hold, even if the waters kept coming up. Only they didn't. I've never imagined what it would be like for a building to die. A building dies just like a person. It gives way, some of the bigger ones did just that. They began to crumble, like an old man with palsy, who couldn't take it anymore. They crumble right down to nothing. And the little ones screamed like mad-over and above the roar of the people. They were mad about dying. But buildings die. I couldn't look anymore at the people. I kept wanting to get higher. I kept willing myself to go higher.

Russianscientist had a good reply to one time about how smaller quakes can help offset stress but sometimes it actually makes it worse. There is many other indicators to look at.

Storm isn't over.

either that or there's a pole shift on the way.

i wonder instead of a pole shift (altho that probly cud/has happened), maybe some plates sink and others rise at the same time?

like the pacific plate sank last time and the south american plate rose, lifting the andes and lake titicaca to well above sea level - during the ice age. explaining all the salt deposits in the andes and explaining lake titicaca's anomalies. the indians from sth america say they came from a red land that sank beneath the waves... was this land in the pacific?
or maybe where atlantis was?

altho atlantis sank in 9500 bc according to plato and the greeks; and the andes/pacific incident shud have been further into the ice age with the mega fauna extinctions (before 15000BC?). maybe the ruins of puma punka which has been smashed to bits and was once a port city, date to this period.

i think when atlantis sank in 9500bc (or was subducted or whatever happened in a huge quake probly), two giant tidal waves went crashing out - one into the mediterranean sea area and one into the carribean area. actually i think theres some evidence to support this too.
the greek sailors said the atlanitc was impassable for a time due to all the mud. (rather suggesting that they had been crossing the atlantic before this; which i totally think probly happened; as probably did the egyptians as well.

the mysterious sea peoples - who i think may be related to phonecians/hittites -correct me if im wrong here - perhaps had come from atlantis? i read somewhere that people from atlantis had pointy shoes. hittites had pointy toed shoes...

but to return to the topic, yes i think a big quake is on the way: either in the pacific; japan; or america (california?). hopefully not the canaries, as that wud be not good...

I too have been paying attention to the earthquakes, I have watched the USGS maps and Iris Seismic Monitor for about a year and a half now, daily, I have reasearched what the history is of the continent and it's movements, for instance: currently in Keeler Califonia there is a swarm happening. Keeler is famous for being a ghost town, the remants of a mining town thought to have funded the building of Los Angeles, but when you look back into the geology of that area it shows at least one very large quake, in 1872, called the 'lone pine earthquake' thought to be the movement of the lone pine fault line and the owens valley fault, this quake was thought to be 7.6-8 mag or even greater. It is responsible for forming the valley that exsists today.

Another thought is that as waters rise, from melting glaciers and frozen land such as Greenland, it puts pressure on the subduction zones, I have written about this in several threads for a while now. I know this is asking you to think about global warming, but I do not ask that you decide if it is man made or natural, if you simply acknowledge that it is taking place, then you acknowledge that waters are rising. All that extra weight comprimizes the faults and subduction zones.

I think you will find this site most helpful. It is a Global Alert map for every disaster occurring. This is cool though because it is in real time.

This could happen within 7-8 days from now!!!!

12 ¶ And I beheld when he had opened the sixth seal, and, lo, there was a great earthquake; and the sun became black as sackcloth of hair, and the moon became as blood;
13 and the stars of heaven fell unto the earth, even as a fig tree casteth her untimely figs, when she is shaken of a mighty wind.
14 And the heaven departed as a scroll when it is rolled together; and every mountain and island were moved out of their places.
15 And the kings of the earth, and the great men, and the rich men, and the chief captains, and the mighty men, and every bondman, and every free man, hid themselves in the dens and in the rocks of the mountains;
16 and said to the mountains and rocks, Fall on us, and hide us from the face of him that sitteth on the throne, and from the wrath of the Lamb:
17 for the great day of his wrath is come; and who shall be able to stand?

Thanks for the quake map. It is very helpful for finding earthquakes here in Taiwan before they hit the news, as I like to know right away what kind of earthquake just shook under me.

I was just able to find the earthquake that shook under my feet here in Taiwan one hour ago. It was in fact a 6.1 magnitude earthquake, but the epicenter was on the other side of Taiwan, so it was light here.

Considering the high amounts of earthquakes in the past week, it seems quite worrying...there was just one in Ryuku. I guess the northern Philippines are next...

Another great website. Thanks!

Thanks to RSOE, I just found out that Typhoon Melor will drag Typhoon Parma away from Taiwan before it reaches us.

Typhoon Melor will go northwards past Japan, and never even reach us either, so all is ok. We're safe apart from the rain.

The earthquake an hour ago has a 5.9 magnitude on this website. They give the precise location, which is better than earthquake.usgs.gov.

Great stuff! I'll be able to keep myself up to date now without relying on the news.

Well excuse me. LOL I won't elaborate any further because I actually don't want it to happen. But if it does, then what can you do? I will explain further if it does happen how I saw the connection. In the meantime, nothing to be said for now.

Well you've said the same stuff in like 6 different threads.

You got to expect somebody to say something about it eventually.
