Locations of that 6ish quake in Kefalonia (also spelled Cephalonia) in Greece seem to vary quite a bit depending on which network you look at.

The aftershocks are spread over a diffuse region, aren't they?
As always, nice coverage Muzzy.

reply to post by Olivine

Thanks, I try my best with the limited time I have free in Summer.

The aftershocks seem to have developed into 2 sections, I haven't had time to look at the NOA data yet, these are mixed ( and duplicated no doubt) Network plots for the 27th Jan. off GSA interactive map
goo.gl...

NOA (National Observatory of Athens) plots are the basis of that pattern, most of the other Networks plots are offshore to the West

only NOA data on map

I'm surprised there are not more aftershocks in the M1-M2 range, NOA usually pick up 600-1200 per month during background seismic activity across the country, so they do have the technology.

I'll look into this closer when I get time and post a feature of EQ Archives

Too early too be worried?

reminds me of March 11 ,,but,,

Geo. not the same as a sub-ducted,, oceanic, convergence.

so any guess's?

of course Volcanic,, ie Santorini,, not out of the queastion,,
may actually, be the front runner.

My friend said she was up all night because of the quakes in Nevada. She lives near Virginia City. She said the ground is continually shaking there. Very strange. Well, it's not strange for Nevada to have quakes, but this is an odd location for a swarm. Makes me wonder what's going on.

220km WSW is not IN Gold Beach.
Not your fault, I blame Useless for using those inane locations.

The correct location is "Off Coast of Oregon"

Warning out for NZ, M5+ possible in next few days.
Muzzys Rules says the TTNT energy released on 28th (3) and 29th (5) were at dangerously low levels (below 10), which historically points to an impending M5+.
Could be that M5 that hasn't happened yet in the Eketahuna M6.3 Series, thats another earthquake Rule "Baths Law"



Something may have gone wrong at Geonet on the 28th also, only 16 quakes recorded, that is way out of the ordinary too.

I have 135 records for GeoNet on the 28th Jan UTC in QVSData - M1+



@Nyiah

3km SSW of Visokoi Island

(Not shooting the messenger) We all know where that is then. Sounds Russian. Maybe in the Kamchatka area? Useless strikes again. What they meant to say was South Sandwich Islands region but they think no one knows where that is.

Do they think they are planning a roadmap? These sort of locations are OK for local lists but for global lists the Great Useless should realise (at the risk of repeating myself for the umpteenth time) that actually most people in the world have not got a clue about local names except in their own area and no, surprise surprise, the rest of the world has no clue where Gold Beach is either. I wonder how many Gold Beaches there are in the world. People should be given, as I have in QVSData, the option of receiving the information in local or global format. This attitude of Useless that we all know where everywhere is is basically just plain stupidity and myopia.

There have been three earthquakes in Oklahoma. One almost reached 4M. Widespread. If you drew a line through them to make a tracking, you would get a line nearly two hundred kilometers long.

Those of us that watch Yellowstone are glad to find that fella found a job and can keep the site going.

I know it was a few days ago, but............

* Data is downloaded directly from National Observatory of Athens, I got 527 lines up to 31/01/2014 20:40:51, whereas DataPro only had 250something lines. Maybe I should be doing something else to get the revised data, or NOA download to DPro has been playing up.

Oh? I'd better go back and do another download from the 28th then, could skew the numbers !

I'd expect it to sound Russian, it was named by a Russian circumnavigating the Southern Ocean. I see no issues with the island's name here
And to be utterly honest, I used to think the SSI's were south of Oz somewhere around Bouvet for the longest time (see where I'm going with this? I didn't even mentally file Bouvet in the right geographic area for a time) So the idea of going with the grouping might not be any more of a help. People tend to need to ogle the map in conjunction with the list to remember the locations of places, like I did (and I'm a map freak! This is embarrassing stuff to admit) I do see your point, but I hope you see mine, too
