Microns per second... that sounds like pretty small movement.

How are you getting on with interpreting that data?

Yer i thought that too. I've been quake watching for some years but its only in the last few months that I've started to use GEE and other site. Its all a bit daunting at first. But I'm trying hard

I'm gonna get someone over on the quake thread to take a look too, but I'm sure if anything has happened they would have already put it into the quake watch thread.

Can you guys post more then one word sentences etc at all, or......?

Yeah way to go, getting 50 off topic censorship's and smashing the thread *clap clap*

Right I've had a look and i think its showing a small quake maybe???

100 to 300 microns/sec- always worth looking into, probably small quake somewhere, but it could be an indicator of a larger quake much further away. Rarely do man made events fall into this category, although some mine blasting can reach here if it is close enough to the station.

GEE Help.....Thanks TA

So as the reading is showing 252 - 255 microns/sec its looks small or could be some distance from the station.
I will direct one of the resident quake experts to your thread and they will be able to tell you for sure.

Just to note, i haven't seen anything show on USGS yet.

Wer'e Kiwis amd Brits.....

I've found the USGS is slow and sometimes they don't add all EQKs on their charts.....

and I caught them deleting some a week ago. Thats why I sometimes use the European data.

Ive made a post in the Quake watch thread so hopefully we will know if it was anything big or not.

reply to post by boo1981


Thanks.

Well, the GeoNet homepage was updated again to show the quake as an intensity 8. But, still no details. So, I'm lost as to what's going on. I spoke to someone in Auckland on the phone, but they didn't notice anything and Auckland is closer to the Bay of Plenty region than Wellington...

So I do look forward to someone who can give educated input into this thread.

Well Ive linked this thread and the image i took from GEE in the Quake Watch thread so you should get to the bottom of this soon enough.

I live in NSW Australia, and I have never once experienced an earthquake. I don't even know what they feel like.

Right that quake that showed up was a distant one in Japan. So nothing to worry about there in NZ.

Now where's that Kiwi from Wgton who says there was a 8.0 in the Bay of Plenty last night?

There was NO quake in the B of P.

Another Kiwi who thinks this is fun. Must be a generation thing because I'm not amused.

There was'nt one....we were dooped

I checked and rung home, there was NO earthquake anywhere near NZ or in NZ with an 8. Vanuatu shows a 6 but thats about it.

I wish some people will get their facts straight next time before pasting it here.

30 whales stranded on Bruny Island

A POD of about 30 pilot whales have become stranded on Bruny Island, south of the Tasmanian state capital Hobart, wildlife authorities say.

Department of Parks and Wildlife spokeswoman Liz Wren told the Hobart Mercury newspaper that 12 of the whales were still alive with people on the beach trying to move them back into the water.

"Preliminary reports indicate around 30 whales have stranded with some believed to be still alive," a statement from the department said.

I would put myself on ``earthquake alert`` if I were in Australia...

Looks like the OP was right we just had an Earthquake off the coast of Townsville.
