Cali is having a steady run of 3's and 4's.
Alaska seems to be following suit...but a bit stronger and moving inland.
The plates between south America and Africa are having some "surprise" appearances.
All of these 5.5 and below....
As someone who watches daily , it seems to be an uptick in activity. Appearing to be nothing special but ya never know.
The only thing making me over-excited is all the activity in Alaska and the dotting of where the plates meet around Africa and South America , they seem "out of place" if you go by day to day rumblings.
It's definitely been an interesting 24 hours.
edit on 9-8-2012 by ujustneverknow because: Cali seems to be quieting down , the last EQ this afternoon a 4.4 in Ferndale.

Don't worry. I am always confused. You just need to keep your mind open and ask and someone here will point you in the right direction... It is also good to know someone else out there is just as confused as I am...edit on 9-8-2012 by crazyguy2012 because: (no reason given)
Thank you! I appreciate that.
I think because I'm new here, some may think I may be one of those FOS peeps.
Odd they use stars...I don't recall seeing this before, anyone?

I am confused? Isn't it Thursday still. Or is this a prediction about tomorrow? Or is today Friday? Or maybe I am just easily confused...
August 9, 2012 At 8:50am Pacific Daylight Time, A week long duration wave was building over the Western United States and since has come to a peak. A double-reading was shown on preliminary results, embedded within the single longwave. Further analysis has shown this to not be a computer error. Two M8s have peaked in California. These longwaves have been known to produce violent weather or Earthquakes nearby. Areas around Mexico, California, Oregon, Washington, Canada, and Alaska should be on the look out for increased seismic activity.
Wavelengths - Shortwaves indicate near events, a high short spike usually means a short term major event is about to happen in that area. Longwaves and steady increases usually mean a large scale change is developing in the area that will effect a large area's upper level jet stream.
M1 - M2 - Slight change is expected, but overall the weather pattern is not being affected.
M3 - M5 - Change is expected and the reading indicates between then and and a few days it will happen. This is considered a moderate reading, which if a short spike can be a nearby event such as severe weather, unexpected lightning, or a tornado.
M6 - M9 - Significant change is expected. Anything over M7 is rare and special attention must be directed when readings go seven and higher. Severe storms are associated with this reading, which if a short spike can be a nearby event and a long duration and slow build being a large scale change.
M10 - Associated with tornado outbreaks. This also can be strong hurricanes and blizzards.
