Quake Watch 2010

reply to post by Jomina


It works. Do your fire fox update and then install the new equake from the main site of the creator and not mozilla.

ahh great, I thank you


I so can't live without that thing anymore lol Even my kids watch my screen, waiting for the next big shake hehe


I like the opportunity it gives me to teach them how things in the world work

A bit more detail re eQuake was posted on page 32 of this thread.

See here

And yes it does work with 3.6 just fine.

And now the Chile cumulative up to and including the 16th March.

Whew. Thanks folks and thanks for the link. I went to the eQuake author's Facebook page to get the version that's compatible with FF 3.6. I ended up using the drag and drop to Tools>Add-ons method...not difficult at all. I will donate to him asap as it's a great Add-on.

very, very interesting - -

I WANT TO KNOW AND I WANT TO KNOW NOW - WHERE THEY ARE GETTING THEIR DATA FOR THE AREA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

THEY don't share very well!!!!

Sorry to be loud but THEY don't make it easy

[edit on 16-3-2010 by Anmarie96]

The instruments wtf - THEY must have off shore instruments that are SECRET!! - Sorry again

[edit on 16-3-2010 by Anmarie96]

no PBO or USGS station show any quake - B036 which is the closes pbo station - closest I could find show nothing thing - shows "maybe man made" noise. - Am I missing something here? Does anyone have other info - after yesterday - this is really getting annoying

14 1/2 +/- hours since last 5+ quake world wide = Is this ever "normal"?

Lol, I have to laugh as we wait for a 6, 7, 8, 9, or 10! This is crazy !
My friend in Long Beach CAli called today just to tell me she was OK from the 4 this morning ! hahaha
We are here between the San Andreas and the San Jacinto faults, just relaxing. I am right next to the San Andreas, but not afraid. I went through the large quakes in the 70s, late 80s, and I know it is a matter of time. The biggest danger here is televisions falling and chimneys, and old brick buildings. That said, I am ready and prepared to help my neighbors, as those of us in my you tube community are into preparedness and helping one another ! That is not a bad thing. Gerald Celente was in the Chile Earthquake, and he was shocked and saddened by reports of people calling the front hotel desk for advice during the big one. He was prepared to take care of himself!
I am not sleeping well since we began having swarms here last year.
In the Redlands, CAli area. But we are OK, so do not worry about us, friends. We will be OK. Take care of your friends and family, and thanks from all of us for the quake watch thread.
Love to all. Thanks for your concern for CA.

Near West flank of Mt. Shasta y'all!!!!! I don't know, looks bad.....

Hello CestLaVie,

Might I make a suggestion - bolt your TV down! - you know just in case :-). I think they cause more damage than my flying computer will if it continues on it's course! I personally think that it is wonderful to have such people such as yourself in this world. People should take note of your heart and your morals for preparing for not just yourself but for other in case of an emergency. True quality of a leader. Cheers to you and be safe!

Hmm, well I am usually glued to eQuake or RSOE and I can't remember such a long gap between 5+ - particularly after a large quake like Chile's. This wait will have me super-glued to the monitor (it's good for the diet!)...

Amateur theory guessing here, with no basis in fact other than learned from study.... what if all the movement over the last few weeks, was opening a conduit for a large magma flow, that has finally found a possible way out? And Yes, I know how crazy and improbable that sounds, but, i can guess can't I? Thats how we all learn, it seem's...

I quite like that theory - and having just read the Volcano Watch thread which mentions a major dome collapse, resulting ash plume reaches 15.2 km altitude at Soufrière Hills (Montserrat) you could be on to something. However, also an amateur hunch/guess from me, too!

The last eruption on Montserrat - in the same hills - was due magma being displaced by a local plate subduction causing magma build up, and dome and after the rise and fall of the dome due to inflation/deflation it made the walls weak and eventually it blew. Huge pyroclastic flows.

Was particularly interesting to find that a while before the eruption locals heard what they described as a jet-engine noise coming from the hills - turned out to be water being superheated by rising magma which was literally being forced at such pressure through fissures in the mountain that it made this awful whining, roaring noise like a plane....

Of course, it hasn't been long since the last activity - just in Feb this year - great vid here:
