Quake Watch 2010

reply to post by muzzy


there was an active thread on ATS for those 'personal' experiences, started in 2008


An experiment in alternative earthquake prediction.

Trinidad and Tobago - 5.0

Magnitude: 5.0
Mercalli scale: 5
Date-Time [UTC]: 21 April, 2010 at 19:29:28 UTC
Local Date/Time: Wednesday, April 21, 2010 at 19:29 in the evening at epicenter
Location: 10° 20.400, 62° 7.200
Depth: 2 km (1.24 miles)
Region: Caribean
Country: Trinidad and Tobago
Distances: 50.87 km (31.61 miles) S of Point Fortin, County of Saint Patrick
Source: RSOE-EMSC

There is no doubt a "big one" coming, I can sense it. The question is where will it hit? California maybe? The San Andreas fault has been up to some pretty interesting activity so far this year.

Muzzy, I agree with you that different topics should stay in different forums, but every once in awhile they cross over. I appreciate the scientific accurateness of this thread and use it to get a nice broad view of everything and I would like to keep that integrity.

However, I would hate to miss the opportunity to connect something and this is a conspiracy site. Having said that I would like to add something. I have been posting here for awhile now and tend to keep to the 'grounded' threads. I have never before mentioned anything about my headaches but the few comments here and Putermans unexpected encouragement has prompted me. I also noticed a connection between some 'weird' headaches and the last three large quakes. I say wierd because my eardrums are involved too. It is almost like a pressurization, like the barometric pressure around me increases, causing this discomfort and I feel as if I need to pop my ears...as well as a 'pressure' headache. It started a couple of hours ago.

Okay....not looking for an in-depth discussion on this. I am in no way sold on it being connected to the quakes, just that I am aware of the coincidence of when they occur. I wanted to get it out there. I'll most likely take a tylenol and forget about it until it happens again.

Back to the quakes. There has been some increased activity in my area the last few days. I know we have been keeping the postings to the larger ones....but I think this is of interest because the last one was near Mount Hood. I'm seeing a definate upward trend this past week:

Downgraded to 5.9

Problem with that downgrade is the location.
Was originally stated in Samoa then when downgraded
the epicenter moved 557 miles to Tonga. How can
this be considered the same event???

westcoast, muzzy, earthchild


OK, I agree that the 'medical aspects' should perhaps be posted elsewhere. I thought to keep this here as this is a reasonably fact based thread and not prone to religion and chakras and all that.

I have been to the other thread, and there is one member on there with whom I have had previous contact, and so have you all here and on the Yellowstone thread, who is also bent on pursuing things in a scientific matter so I personally be very happy to move that part of out discussions over there. Thanks for mentioning it earthchild. Appreciated.

If you are agreement alexgia and oldgoat, could we continue over on that thread? I am very certain that you will not be ridiculed on that thread. I am going to post links there back to here.

reply to post by PuterMan


Works for me. I just posted over there and offered to post my screen shots from the other forum

Did GEE and USGS go down last night?

was reading about it here
www.abovetopsecret.com...

Ya'll never mentioned anything about it, if it's true

reply to post by PuterMan


Good idea - and I shall be there too - there's a reason I became interested in quakes and volcanoes and it fits in nicely with the other thread which I wasn't aware of until now... seems we're all on a path to finding out something about ourselves as well as this rock we live on

Now a question... is there a geological reason why, when you look on the map of the West Coast of the US that the quakes radiating out from Baja's original event seem to go "around" an area roughly circular in shape? It's been bugging me for a while - keep telling myself the quakes are just following the faults but thought I'd throw it out there... what's in that circular area (it's not far off Yellowstone!).

reply to post by berkeleygal


Apparently so, I was in bed so didn't notice it myself..

Hey Puterman - what do your charts say about my feeling the magnitude of quakes down Baja is on the up again? No the number, necessarily, just the mag...

Yellowstone isn't in the circular area. It's on the perimeter.

Out of curiosity, does anybody know what the currect aftershock count on the "BAJA CALIFORNIA, MEXICO" quake is??

Edit to add: they are *still* dominating quake activity recorded on USGS.

the 5.3? or the bigger one around easter?

reply to post by MoorfNZ


All I see is the quakes along the San Andreas and sundry other fault zones on the left hand edge. There is an inner line of quakes starting off at the Southern Nevada fault zone and that extends northwards roughly parallel with the SA and it's extensions.

On the right hand side it goes through Utah so part of that must be the Wasatch fault zone, leading to the Teton faults.

I see a sort of Y shape, but not a circle. Sorry!

From the 7.2 till now.

Lost count but thousands - at one point there were around 3,500 quakes on the Cali/Baja map for the week. That was a week or so ago and, as you say, they're still going...
