Quake Watch 2017

I was wondering where it was centered. It is so strange during those first few seconds where your brain is trying to comprehend what is going on during the beginning of and EQ

570 felt reports so far!
Only 78 km deep too.

Revised to 5.3 M which itself was reported as 5.4 originally.

I was waiting to feel the rollers. You never know how long they're going to last. Got my shoes on just in case!

After it slowed, posted here, then back to hockey! LOL. Hence getting the magnitude number was off.

Southern Illinois. My step mother was part Shawnee, and as such was proprietor of a huge land area passed down from her Native Elders. Funny as I was just checking out the Shawnee lands last night, and found this one popped up today:

www.ga.gov.au...

just saw this one 6.9

some buoys are starting to bounce

6.9 NW of Attu Station, Alaska


Then a 5.2.



earthquake.usgs.gov...


I don't know if this is a glich or the 6.9 effecting the Yukon, Territory.

CK- just came here to report the same one. Funny RSOE has it as a 6.9....and knowing the "adjustments" made moments after the big ones register, it made me wonder if it wasn't in fact, more in the 7-range. *gulp*

I'll add in another I found, in Papa New Guinea: a 6.1:

EDIS Number EQ-20170602-717800-PNG

Now I know there is some discussion as to wether or not CME's have any effect on EQs, etc. I'm not convinced there is NO relation, that is all I will say so far. Keeping this in mind, I've been keeping up with Coronal Mass Ejections, and we had a whopper last week and a double whopper yesterday, I think. (Maybe the day before.) Regardless, I keep a dry erase board here, filled with random geographical/lunar/solar data, updating as the events occur. I'll just say that the amount of 4+ EQs seems to have almost doubled lately...in addition to...the recent "super CME's" (my made-up vocabulary word) seems to have been precursors for several of the last high 6's and 7's.

Keeping in mind that this wondrous wacky thing we call Earth/Life/Galaxy/"Just A Ride"/or Whatever you call it....somehow, every single thing from tiny atoms to massive planets, somehow .... we all manage to dance the delicate dance of Balance so that each moment that passes is connected to the next one we've yet to live.

Having said that---this Lunar eclipse that is due to scrape over Yellowstone (IS THERE SOMETHING GOING ON THERE OR NOT?!?!), WELL....I'll be amazed if we get through 2017 with the continental US in one piece. But. I bet they've been saying that for years.


Be safe.
Much love.

For anyone in Cali.

Coso Junction and Little Lake are acting up abit.


I looked at satellite and didn't see any fracking pads.

Natural. Spring waters?

Warning unless that series is over for now
Possible pattern:
5.0 Guatemala foreshock to 6.9 Guatemala
so
5.6 Mexico-possible foreshock to something bigger like 7.5 to 8.0 somewhere around there?

Good find. It is not always Mag 6, 7, 8 etc quakes that cause tsunamis. This was only a Mag 4.

Article in Daily Mail with a video from which the BBC article photo was taken. Much better detail than the BBC offering.
