30 whales stranded in Australia...earthquake to come?

Looks like two.....

Tauranga was probably White Island off the coast and the other looked like it was near Ruatoria

Keep us updated please, I have Family living in BOP

I can't seem to get any info anywhere online, might have to risk waking them up to see if they're okay

reply to post by Village Idiot


I think the one in the B of P was White Island, so they should be ok

Look at this from Vanuatu, Fiji and NZ.......it's on a loop

Wait. Don't wake anyone up yet.

The data has to be analysed before we can really be sure that it is actually an intensity 8.

Well, if she goes, there's a good chance for a tsunami
not much wall between the ocean and crater

I've walked on White Island before, felt like as close as one could get to Hell

Thank you for the link.

Ive got GEE open at the moment and looking at station South Karori. This seems to be the closest station. I'll get a screen shot and add it here when done.

Okay, will wait
Thanks for the info

8!?

I cant find that magnitude on any internet site for any continent today.... ?

I found this on a European EQK map for the Pacific:

Look at the Ring of Fire now......

Indeed. All I have so far is this:

www.geonet.org.nz...

It's possible some possum hunter knocked the seismograph station with his foot as I think that area is near Lake Waikaremoana which is an enormous area of bush and wilderness. I could be wrong, but I think that's the area.

Anyway, I still have no details, so I just don't know. But the reason I checked Geonet in the first place was that I felt a small earthquake (I'm in Wellington, something like 400km away from the Bay of Plenty) so it seems kind ominous to me...

The fault like runs straight through New Zealand from top to bottom sadly.

I really hope they don't get anymore severe ones because of this.

The buildings in Christchurch must be taking some damage still. considering all the aftershocks...

hahahahahaha I hate those little buggers and them Aussies protect the dam things! I just hit them with a base ball bat whenever I can reach one.

I'd say it will show up within afew hours but no doubts there has been a couple of shakes north and north east of NZ.....don't like that little swam in the Taupo area though.

Geonet just updated their home page and is now showing that intensity 8 in the Bay of Plenty as an intensity 7.
But still no detailed information.

They're meant to be in Aussy. They're not meant to be in NZ. Now that the fur trade is evil, they have free reign to destroy the forest.

Why can't humans distinguish: Seal fur bad. NZ Possum fur good. ?

I love how the author of this thread posts this dire prediction, then runs away and does a no show.

Thanks for sticking around to contribute your relevant information buddy!

Seals don't damage our forests and worst of all our homes....they filthy lil buggers (as cute as they are when they're little)......

I love our seals!!!

Right like i said here is the image from GEE. Station South Karori.



Now I'm just educating myself in the reading's so if anyone here can tell us what the above image is showing please feel free.

I don't hate possums. I just know they shouldn't be here and that they're incompatible with the eco-system here. I know we don't have the means to entirely get rid of them, but I suspect that if we could reduce their numbers we could buy ourselves enough time for future developments to allow us to really do something about them.

Nice. I don't know what I'm looking at, but I guess the story is told in amongst those spikes somewhere.
