Earthquake Swarm in Arkansas Intensifies. Memphis, Tennessee could be epicenter for the next big one

reply to post by Robin Marks


I live in Memphis,Tn.. I have been feeling that something big is going to happen. I just didn't know what. I started to focus on the natural disasters that faced the area in which I live. I have stocked up on the things we wouldn't have if the Big One strikes. Water,food, medical supplies, etc.. Then, when the big one happens, we might be the next Real Foot Lake. What good is all my supplies if they are on the bottom of a new lake, or the expanded Mississippi River?? I used to work for the Memphis,Shelby co. Emergency Agency, 25 years ago. Today, they are saying the same things. Just copying the old plan that I copied. I know from experience how the different agencies DO NOT work and play well with others. I prepare for emergencies, but I don't know if it will do anygood.

Alright everyone. I'm about to go crazy here. All morning, I've been hearing...it's hard to explain. I can FEEL it lightly, it's like these...booms? It honestly feels like you have a porch, and someone is jumping up and down on it. That's what it sounds like too, except those are just the main points of the noise. It all strings together, like a long rumble, with some booms. It's not loud, but you can hear it. It sounds kind of far off, and yet it doesn't. I am probably a mile away from any neighbors, but this sound is so constant that it couldn't just be made by something my neighbors are doing.

I have no idea what it is...

I realize a couple of people may get tired of hearing this, but I don't really care. People are reporting these sounds from all different parts of the world, along with a whole list of other 'anomolies', IMO it is POSSIBLE that certain entities are making use of EM or other types of weapons systems for as yet undefined goals (use your imagination), sure there may be other explantions, but anyone who rules this out as a POTENTIAL option IMO isn't paying attention.

I see now where just as many of us KNEW beforehand, the disaster in Japan is going to be used by the 'disaster capitalist' vultures to invade Japan's (before the quakes/tsunami) formerly protectionist economy, the international bankers and the corporate cronies all salivating at the prospects of huge profts from 'rebuilding', and are saying how the 'doors have opened' comveniently to allow a rush of control and profit by these outside forces.

Hey!!

I'm in Memphis too....

Keepin an eye on the Arkansas swarm that has re-awakened, and a an eye on the Nevada swarm as well.

Here's the update:

Finally! www.msnbc.msn.com...

What gets my feathers ruffled is how they can call it clean energy when it contaminates the very earth it's being extracted from. That sucks!

"•Between 2005 and 2009, the oil and gas service companies used hydraulic fracturing products containing 29 chemicals that are known or possible human carcinogens, regulated under the Safe Drinking Water Act (SDWA) for their risks to human health, or listed as hazardous air pollutants under the Clean Air Act."

From the report.

Here's another article on the subject. Wall Street Journal.

Whatever anyone says, it's obvious that "hydraulic fracturing" threatens our planet's geophysical integrity. Hence the name, right? Fracturing?!?

It's also obvious that the chemicals get into our groundwater and threaten peoples' health. But industry "professionals" deny it? Duh.

...Many companies were also unable to even identify some of the chemicals they were using in their own activities, unfortunately underscoring that voluntary industry disclosure is not enough to ensure the economic benefits of natural gas production do not come at the cost of our families' health."

That second link won't open.Can you resend it please?

Robin has mentioned many times the groundwater in relation to the quakes in Arkansas and I thought you all might find this information interesting.

Japan earthquake and Florida water levels. :
"Japan's earthquake was so powerful that it actually sent ripples through South Florida's underground water supply. Now scientists wordwide want to know more about it, according to the South Florida Water Management District. articles.sun-sentinel.com...

A water well in VA reacts to large earthquakes around the globe. The well oscillated for 4 hours after the 9.0 Japan eq!!!:
"Even though the earthquake in Haiti was centered thousands of miles away from here, the seismic shockwaves were felt right here in Virginia."
"Nelms says a 6.0 earthquake or stronger causes the water in the Christiansburg well to move up and down, even if it's 1000s of miles away. " www.nbc12.com...

It was linked at the bottom of the first link posted just following some of their sourcing. Thanks for the heads up.

Sorry still didn't work. You will have to use the link in the article to get to it.

I saw something on Nat Geo lastnight about your area being long overdue for a 7+ quake. They also covered what a mag 10 would be like.

Great links. I shared them on facebook as well.

Geologist underestimate the groundwater influences concerning earthquakes. They can't dismiss it because they've found evidence that water can trigger earthquakes. Yellowstone's swarms and the geysers have been remotely triggered by distant large earthquakes. But this is all very complicated and it's hard to see what's going on down deep in the earth. It's hard to account for the moon on the tidal effects on ground water. It's all very subtle and sometimes the changes are minute. We shouldn't forget the tiny changes.

Since it's hard to comprehend the dyanmic under the ground, let me explain it in a different way.

It's akin to a heart attack.

"Myocardial infarction (MI) or acute myocardial infarction (AMI), commonly known as a heart attack, is the interruption of blood supply to a part of the heart, causing heart cells to die. This is most commonly due to occlusion (blockage) of a coronary artery following the rupture of a vulnerable atherosclerotic plaque, which is an unstable collection of lipids (fatty acids) and white blood cells (especially macrophages) in the wall of an artery. The resulting ischemia (restriction in blood supply) and oxygen shortage, if left untreated for a sufficient period of time, can cause damage or death (infarction) of heart muscle tissue (myocardium).

Classical symptoms of acute myocardial infarction include sudden chest pain (typically radiating to the left arm or left side of the neck), shortness of breath, nausea, vomiting, palpitations, sweating, and anxiety (often described as a sense of impending doom).[1] Women may experience fewer typical symptoms than men, most commonly shortness of breath, weakness, a feeling of indigestion, and fatigue.[2] Approximately one quarter of all myocardial infarctions are "silent", without chest pain or other symptoms."

en.wikipedia.org...


A remotely triggered earthquake is like a heart attack. When there is an strong earthquake in far off place, it can shake the groundwater passageways. The waves pulse and break off sediments which the block normal channels. This blockage forces a pressure change and when the water forces it's way through the ground, it causes ruptures. Earthquakes are ruptures.

A heart attack is the same thing. When the heart is stressed and pumping vigorously, this can cause plaque to break free. This plaque can cause a blockage which will stop the blood getting to the heart. If you have a massive rupture, you get death.

Don't eat food with transfats. Hydrogenated oils are bad for you.

Like I've said before, the moon is part of the pump. The heart is just a pump. The moon is full right now.

There was just a 6.6M off New Zealand. Go figure.

Do none of the worlds leading experts have any kind of handle on all of this activity be it weather in terms of storms and flooding, the moon and tides, the sun MF activity etc and the amount and size of earthquakes recently? Is there something big brewing?

reply to post by Robin Marks


I felt rattles a few minutes ago and loaded GEE back up. I might can add to you post using the heart here and show a liquefaction possibility in it.

An enlarged heart chamber or (aquifers from fluid or water), chronic atrial fibrillation rhythms (swarms of earthquakes), synaptic electrical nerves pop from the enlargement (leaving uncontrollable quakes from injecting fluids that rupture the aquifers) and we have liquefaction where it could be unstoppable for a long while to permanent.

Thanks for the info. I am also watching the wacky weather across the U.S. and other parts of the world. Last week, we had the tornados from *ell. Something strange is happening. Abuse of Mother Earth, with all of the drilling, mining and pollutions in the air and water. I keep up with the ancient prophecies. History will repeat it self. Maybe we need to really listen to the ancients. They tried so very hard to leave things, to tell us.

Just a head's up. There was one quake not long ago. Didn't show up on the list. I wouldn't be surprised if it starts to move again. There's lots of water in the ground again.

I noticed that, but didn't feel anything. Have been checking USGS for an update.
I love Kermit

Just snooping around and found this little tidbit about the 1982 Enola swarm.

quake.ualr.edu...

Fortunately, scientists have a more credible answer: the earthquakes are being caused by a remnant of the force that created the nearby Ouachita Mountains.

What do you suppose they mean by "remnant of the force"????? Curious statement.

They are referring to orogenesis, and the process by which the mountain range itself was created- basically that the collision of tectonic plates over a long period of time creates mountain ranges. And so they are attributing that swarm to a remnant of that process.

In other words, the process is still ongoing.

It's a lot easier to attribute it to that than to explain to people that they are living on top of a resurgent volcano which could blow at any minute.



Flame suit engaged.

Thanks for the explanation. So, was this area considered a subduction zone when the mountain building took place? (Could it still be a subduction zone?) And, could it explain the hot springs?
Maybe they are stupid questions, but Westcoast's recent post/thread www.abovetopsecret.com... got me wondering about the hot springs in Arkansas. At 147 degrees, not hot by California, Wyoming, Alaska, standards but they are the hottest springs in the central to eastern US.
