Quake Watch 2010

reply to post by PuterMan


I know that the Canadian event is a smaller event. But - it seems like it was larger. I live a good distance from there - Ulster County, New York. The waves (there were 2 with a 5 second rest between the 2) really trembled here. I really thought that a 18 wheeler with a second box on the back went down the street in front of the building at a high rate of speed going over a bunch bricks. Accordingly, I am not suprised that the seismo's in yellowstone picked up this event. Maybe the tremor has to do with the makeup of the rock in this area.

Undoubtedly yes. It certainly looks bigger than it was.

As you say, it must be an effect of the topography - which actually is a known fact on that side of the continent.

""A strong earthquake has shaken a number of cities in eastern Canada. People were apparently in the rare event not to harm. The earthquake reached a magnitude of 5.5, the U.S. seismological (USGS). In the center of the capital Ottawa several buildings were evacuated. In Montreal, the earth shook around half a minute. The epicenter was about 60 kilometers north of Ottawa.""

Thanks for that

I am finding this wide spread effect of the quake really interesting. If that was Indonesia no one would have batted an eyelid. Curious and needs more investigation.

Friend in New Philidelphia, Ohio felt the Quebec quake, but wasn't too sure at the time what it was.

Ahh, see, with the Central Cali and now the 2.5 in the Santa Catalina bay area offshore Cali we're building up to the big offshore event I placed my bet on earlier this month

Some rare South Island Alpine Fault activity, low magnitudes but activity none the less

I am feeling very unsettled with the shaking going around in calf. today - - - - it seems when it shakes like that - a larger quake looms in the very near future -

What's up with USGS? Either there have been no earthquakes in CA for several hours (even under 2.5) or USGS stopped reporting, despite their update clock being up to date.

Same for 2.5+ nothing reported since the 6.9 in Solomon

Well, that's a little eerie... 2 posts and 6 hours later, BAM.... Soloman Islands.

Spooky.

Don't forget it is the full moon and eclipse today and some alignment of the planets and an astrological conjunction and the G20

We are all doomed I say, doomed!

Do we have any solar flares to go along with that in addition a tropical storm headed straight for the oil spill?
