Pretty good shake, although nothing disastrous. It was felt in places normally earthquakes are not felt.

My wife, son, and myself were having a nice sleep when we were woken up by this fairly strong quake. It lasted a good minute or more. We haven't had one here in Mexico city for awhile, I guess with all the activity lately we were due.I just hope there is not something more big in store for us. Stay safe.

I hope the quakes are not going to move up the coast,
Mexico would be next, then Cali!

I've been having bad vibes about the California quakes...
Edit:

upgraded to a 6.0

Looks like things are moving north....
Coincidence?

a reply to: November5th

And may you be safe as well.

Lot's of micro quakes all over the western Pacific plate (and the ring of fire) I see.

Vanatu has released some tension, but I see Cali getting hit again soon if this keeps up.

WOW! Just got home from work and saw that 7.2! Daaaaam
2nd line, wow again, things surely are shakin!

Don't like it either. Why can't they leave things alone. Note it has ruined the signature layouts as well.

Oh yeah I didn't see that yesterday. No opportunity for self promotion then. Its back on there (just now while I was typing)

Also when you view when logged out there are more posts per page, when you log in you have to click back a page to see what was at the top of the page when you had a "preview".
If this is more attempts to pander to the smart phone market then all I can say is what a complete waste of time.
I got a Galaxy smart phone recently and can't see what all the fuss is about. I blew my mobile data account within 1 hour by clicking on Chrome update and ended up having to use it through my home wifi. Chews up that as well, put some earthquake alert apps on, to see which worked best and then ended up deleting them all because they were riddled with adverts which block half the screen and none of them worked (no alert function) anyway.

All I can say is these people that ATS are pandering to now must have lots of cash to spend time on their cell phones to talk/type crap, because 97% of the topics on ATS are crap, apart from Quake, Volcano and Cyclone Watch of course.
At the rates we get charged here in NZ for data usage on mobile I won't be coming on ATS on my mobile that's for sure.
I'm away out of town for 3 weeks in about a week, probably won't have access to the internet, so likely won't be on here. Have fun.

Locals say 7.0 for offshore Petatlan, Mexico

A small chartypoo to calm your frazzled nerves my muzzy friend, or irritate them as the case may be. Data from ANSS to 2012 and USGS thereafter.



Whilst not the worst ever month for M7+ quakes it is bested only by 1957. So from quiet we have gone to manic. Predictions are for the worst to come in this next week according to an astrologer friend of mine with bad omens for Cascadia.

Yeah well 'nuff of that then. (Unfortunately he has been right so far as he predicted a massive upturn in activity for April this year.)

ETA: No doubt your superior data will conflict with these results.




Actually when one looks at a more homogenised catalogue like Centennial the picture is different

This shows that period around the 1960 big one as still being the most disturbed period since 1900 - so far anyway!

Nooo. Please tell your friend to stop predicting bad things for Cascadia, lol.

Activity has moved north--the Mexico earthquake seems to have perturbed the California/Mexico border region in the past few minutes.

Something has really gone wrong today.

Dang your freaking me out! I have to work all day too.

Its goin down!

mabye,

hope not.....

I'm in AK so I'll let ya know how it goes if it goes

a reply to: GoShredAK

What part of AK are you in?

Interesting on the 5+'s,
that's 3 up there in a few days time.

damn, just lost 2 paragraphs of typing due to this stupid new preview layout, what a shambles!
try again, but briefer now

ETA: No doubt your superior data will conflict with these results.

I doubt I can gather the 104 years together to get a new graph right now.

I've been changing the style of the charts on M7+ page to this type. You can see better how they bunch up this month.

then once loaded to the Graph page it will look like a continuous 104 year graph. I need to swap the order though, and have it run from 1910 down to 2014 rather than how it is now the other way around. Something to work on when I'm out of town.

FWIW I had 10 x M7's in Septemebr 2007

not necessarily related except for a small time frame between them. Does seem quite a bit of renewed activity today 18th UTC, another 5.5 down at the Balleny Is too
may be related to something else over the last few days, but what?

a reply to: Darkblade71

The Kenai peninsula.

And I know we get a lot of quakes all of the time, but still the recent activity on the ring of fire has me wondering if a big one is on the way for Alaska, specifically the Anchorage area.

It'd be crazy if it happened today that's for sure.

a reply to: Cherryontop

It's front page on one of the papers here tomorrow...Britain hit by earthquakes...or some such...bet they're frakking related...failing that some deep subsidence in some old mine shafts, although I wouldn't expect them to be quite that strong...

There's this little snipet from an article on the double hit...

The agency has launched an online questionnaire to help assess the impact on the local area. It has recorded 44 earthquakes around Britain over the past 50 days, but only one – in the eastern North Sea – of a similar magnitude. Several have been around New Ollerton in Nottinghamshire, where 91 small earthquakes, the largest of 1.8 magnitude, have been recorded since mid-December. That area has a history of seismic activity related to coal mining.
