Quake Watch 2011

reply to post by Shenon


Hi Shenon, I had noticed these. I am a bit busy right now but I will take a look this evening hopefully.

Melting CPU? I have that problem. Take the PC apart (- well take the cover off!!) take it to a garage and use the air line to blow the dust and muck out. Works wonders.

@all

Rather than type all the info out changes are afoot on my earthquake listings pages (where iWokeUp you will find all mag 6 and mag 7 and even mag 8 and 9 earthquakes listed for the past 3 years - (mmm yummy all that info)) I will direct you to the about page which explains.

It should make it very much faster to find changes and individual events.

Do remember however this is not updated immediately an earthquake happens but the information will normally be there within 24 hours.

a "nice' wee close one in eastern Christchurch just now ( a minute ago).
Felt sort of beneath us...heard the rumble, a second (no longer) was the shake...short and sweet!


First one like that for a while...

yeah felt it too I hope we not starting up again!!!

2nd

Why do they always happen when I'm determined to drink?
It's Friday, for goodness sake!


Damned Hex .

Told ya it was East.



For those that do not know; that's good solid volcanic rock.

Thanks,looking forward to the Results. There are alot of Seismos in that Area,as you know. Should be fun looking trough that .At least i think its fun if you know what youre looking at

PS: Not melting per se,just my CPU Fan not working anymore. So it gets a little hot after awhile. New one is already on its way,should arrive tomorrow. Can´t do much until then. And the Hot Weather we have here isn´t helping much either.

Morning guys. Just waking up with my second brew having gone through my 'news' sites. I have to admit the Czech 'swarm' pricked my interest. My first reaction was "What have the Czechs done to upset somebody"
Then brain got into practical mode...how far is this swarm from the Laacher See? (will be taking a closer look later if EQ's continue)

@muzzy, thank you about Vanuatu. I am also concerned about Fiji as it sits on its own little plate down there and is currently getting squished by the plate movements. There are far too many volcs huffing and puffing in Indonesia..The following volcanoes are at orange level and flashing

And as to the Philipines...it's sinking right before our eyes...we are being distracted by the huricane hiting US eastern seaboard..Super Typhoon Nanmadol makes US pale by comparison IMHO. The Philipines have been getting soaked over the last few weeks, geologically speaking parts are actually sinking into the sea along the coastline since the Japan 9.0, and now this....
" August 26, 2011 – MANILA – The storm has winds of 150 mph, and wind gusts close to 190 mph. It is a monster. According to the latest forecasts, the storm will retain much of its strength after passing over the Philippines enroute to Taiwan. At least 18 provinces in the northeastern Philippines have been placed under a storm alert as typhoon Nanmadol lashes the region. Some sixteen thousand families have been evacuated in the northeastern provinces of Albay and Aurora due to floods and landslides. Sandbags were used to protect communities from overflowing river and dikes breached by another cyclone – Nock Ten – which hit the province last month. Relief supplies have been distributed to evacuees. Schools were closed in the northeast. Officials braced for stormy weather over the weekend due to typhoon Nanmadol which carried peak winds reaching 185 kilometres an hour. –Radio Australia News".
The whole antipode (in relation to UK) is shaking like a leaf, and it's only a matter of time......

@Muzzy....please keep a closer eye on 'stuff' down your way, facts and figures and charts have an important role to play, but you are 'on the ground' so to speak, so make sure your own internal computer is also conected. Just remember everybody, birds and animals do not read charts but they know when that tsunami is coming.

@ Mr Marks....I think I have the right person in relation to posts about the moon's possible effects on eq's (I apologise if I am wrong) However, whoever it is...to everybody this is a New Moon coming in when all these storms are happening (currently 4)....there is no denying the effect of the moon on water generally.

@Berkleygal, westcoast and Aromaz.....keep on having one foot in both camps....

@Bob....you know sooooo much more if you could just fine tune your radio!

@PuterMan....couldn't leave the boss out now could I? I value your opinions and advice, you know I do. You make me smile and giggle when you 'go off on one' to put others in their place. But I could not help but laugh when it transpires that you have never experienced an EQ and live on the least prone EQ place in the World! I have experienced 2 EQ's by the way..and as small'ish as they were...they were not nice and they instilled a massive respect to mother earth in me. They also gave me a base line to empathise with other people when they have much greater EQ's than my tiddlers. I have also been out in hurricane force wind on land thankfully. I have sailed and again thankfully only experienced small but still unerving power of tides and the sea.They were nice little 'jostles'!
I see you as a man living in a beautiful fishermans croft, with a view of the sea, on the beautiful west coast of Ireland, in idyllic setting, by contrast surrounded by computers and technological gagetry......but a man who forgets to take a daily walk, or have a glass of wine in his garden.
As Einstein once said (and I do not quote exactly) it takes a higher consciousness to solve a problem that was created in the first place. I like to think of that as 'thinking outside the box', outside of given parameters and science, and isn't that where all good science and advancement comes from anyhow?
This is your thread, and I know I have come 'left field' here with this post. If you wish that I do not post here again, that's fine as I have the utmost respect for you....but please let me look as I too am still learning.

Tropical wave.

en.m.wikipedia.org...

There is no scientific study into this idea.
Hence, it must not be true?

Another idea which has only mildl interest by scientists is the effect of the moon on earthquakes.
Statisitcally, there is a small influence.

I think after a new moon we get an uptick. Just not everytime.

I would hunt down more eastern united states quakes and if there were tropical waves to correlate. But I don't have time.

Right now there's lots of microsiem noise.

reply to post by Robin Marks


Ya know I think there maybe many factors to consider. Other than our own Government What else could it be?

I am leaning toward a weakened magnetosphere is causing the ocean's to warm and a rise ( if indeed they really are) in volcanic and EQ activity as there is no doubt the atmosphere and Earth is experiencing noticeable and even historical events as of the past two years. It may speed up as we go through the Stellar Cloud and the Sun and Moon will definitely play a bigger role (if true) here on Earth. It is all magnetic and therefore I believe the energy we are seeing and feeling is because of a weakened magnetosphere??

I have to work today so I am really hoping things are quiet today and I would love to see it quiet down for good but then what would we talk about on here.

Peace and love to you all!!!! xoxoxo

reply to post by westcoast


Thanks for the info Westcoast! Gosh when do you sleep!!!

I'm glad I didn't know that info last night though, I wouldn't have been able to sleep. Our son & his family are going to upstate NY on Sunday. One of our grandsons just started college there & they are having parent's day & a picnic. Great timing! I was worried about them being able to get back, depending upon the track of the hurricane & local flooding, downed trees, tornados etc.

Now I'll be keeping one eye on USGS watching for earthquakes up there too! Especially after them having had some the last couple of days! Hopefully the school postpones it!


Robin.... another piece of the earthquake puzzle? It's definitely an addiction. The more I learn, the more I want to investigate!!! I feel like Gumby being pulled in all different directions! I want to be on the quake & hurricane sites, but I'm so far behind in my work! Now if I was you, I'd add a You Tube clip of Gumby! But alas, I'm not that advanced yet!
Thanks for making us smile in the midst of sometimes sobering info. Priceless!!!

There seems to be something going on in CA. This is from Mammoth Lakes:

I am not seeing a whole lot of substantial activity on USGS.

Be Well.

The Pacific North West is showing some activity, too.

ETA: I just realized, this larger quake is listed in the region of Mt. St. Helens. Getting ready to blow her top again?

Be Well.

solution found to mystery on post by muzzy


forehead smack

after an hour pouring over the usgs lists (8-30days, 7days, PDE search, 10-degree Map Centered at 20°S,170°E, Latest Earthquakes M5.0+ in the World - Past 7 days etc etc) I suddenly realised why it wasn't on the list (in the image)

the image (list) is off a 10-degree Map Centered at 20°S,170°E and doesn't cover the north of Vanuatu

the 5.8 was up north at -13.599, 166.950

need to pay more attention

Vanuatu page is pending, having trouble with the last two swarms, they are not on PDE so had to sort them out off 8-30days qed list which is in a different format to PDE and needs re processing to get the data into the right columns

Have a coffee break muzzy....sorry...have you been working on this all night!!?? All the same...can I make you a brew? Go and sit in the garden while i put the kettle on.

Isn't Mammoth Lakes at one end of the Long Valley Caldera? If it is maybe this will help a little bit. I know we don't rely heavily on EDIS, but this on Long Valley recent activity might be useful

Hmmm...interesting.

Wonder if he/she will come back and answer some questions.

Not enough information to know what it's about.

Not saying there is nothing to it, but as most here on ATS there needs to be proof/credibility behind what is shared.

This member signs up just to post this? Why? If they ran a google search, possibly brought them here due to the content of the post......

reply to post by berkeleygal


I do not think the reference is to an M8 quake. I just posted a reply there (on Page 271).

IF the original e-mail is kosher;
The reference is most likely to Messier 8 (AKA M8 or Lagoon Nebula).
- BUT that particular region in the sky is of interest to many astronomers;
some of which are also a bit concerned about possible threat to our solar system.
