a quake that size and the whole planet would feel it . not something to look forward to.

Yeah but it would be very interesting to say the least. Also your dream ability would become very credible.

No need to apologise. RSOE were showing both. It was the almost identical times that made me think.

Baja cumulative to Apr 18, 23:59:59

Dropping back down again.

Having had a few conversations with other members I now realise there's another benefit to this Quake Watch thread - it lets others know that the USGS is NOT the ONLY bloomin' resource in the world... "it's not on USGS so TPTB must be withholding info".. ermm, no, it's probably on one of the other numerous, country-specific sites... USGS isn't the be all and end all folks.

*rant over*

Twin quakes aren't that rare, but I always think when you get a couple this size that close in time and distance , that we might have dodged a bigger single quake?

Interesting re 2x quakes - nice catch.

There was also a felt quake down Te Anau way - a 4.5

Activity is boring at the moment, which is a good thing but not very entertaining for us really. The last 30 days have been exciting in following all the activity but it seems to be quietening down now doesn't it ?

Very true but Murka is probably the only country with such and extensive network feed that is easily available to us, and downloadable. Having said that I have not even started on Auto DRM yet and that covers the whole world, but not in real-time.

One of the really great things about the USGS/IRIS is the availability and extent of data, agreed most if it US. You certainly cannot knock them for that.

this is spooky !

just last night i had a dream that a mag 9.9 hit in Afgahanistan and we get with in 24 hours of my dream a 5.7 true its a mod size quake but still to me its spooky .

I just saw on CNN news ticker that the afganistani quake has killed 7 people - thats all I know for now

Does anyone in here get quake "ear ringing" hours before they happen? I'm 3 for 3 for the last few big ones. It seems like it has to be 5.0 or higher for it to give me a ring in the US. Higher the further from me that it is.

No, not me I am afraid. I could sleep through the end of the world.

Please DO post back here the next time you get the ringing. I think some people are possibly sensitive to this, so it would be interesting to see.

If you post here before the event obviously credibility is enhanced greatly.

I don't get the ringing Old Goat, but I have had intense nausea, the day before and day of preceding all 4 of the last major quakes. I've noticed mine coincides with 6.2 and higher I will take PuterMans advice and post here when it returns.

I've already got the whole family spooked.

Not sure if this should be here or Volcano Watch

Things are quiet in Iceland, VERY quiet.



I admit to s certain unease.

I second that! In a BIG way, especially with the tremor maps looking the way they do!

and as a side note...keep your eyes to N Cali & the passage between Rico/S Cali...
