Is it me or do I feel Tremours after the earthquake here in England. Stand still and take note.

I don't think the UK will ever get a massive quake unless some massive sea quake happens for a Tsunami and that won't destroy the UK completly either.

Hi tracey and time lord
Are you still experiencing vibrations - ever since the earthquake I've felt the earth vibrating and have been to the doctor and nothing wrong and it happens even if I'm not in this country. It may sound wierd but I'm wondering if the earthquake heightened my senses towards natural vibrations in the earth??

Hi there,that has got me wondering if an earthquake has to have a minimum strength before it gets reported .
If this is true then we may be feeling earthquakes all the time if we pay close enough attention.

Newcastle, North East. Feel nothing.

dont jinx it, i have alot of dreams of Tsunamis hitting us.

I think the tsunami is an ultimate fear, especially seeing what it does with the recent event. I guess movies play a part of going to the sea and a big strong wave sweeps your feet and you feel its power.

I felt some today again and the BGS website confirms minor consistant movements. Its hard to tell if the 200 minor quakes the UK gets compared to what to expect of a large earthquake building up as being different. We can not really measure the difference. But even after The Chinese Earthquake and the the Tsunami in Indonesia you find the big quakes did not give a warning and only months later you feel tremors and minor shakes. You never hear on the news people felt a small quake then a big one, not even the ricter scales show that, well I think. So what we find is random quakes with no warnings and minor quakes are probably a sign of stablising.

But I could be wrong as you can never tell if the minor quakes are a precursor to energy being built up for the final crunch, wish there was a formular of detection like the weather.

Maybe I have become used to detecting small jolts in the earth and have become more awake to it. I feel them all the time in the UK. I cross reference my experiences with the Geological websites and find I am right everytime I do feel wobbles and slight jolts when I stand or sit down. I am not sure if this is a sign for bigger quakes in future or how flooding and rain is making the British land lofter and weaker as time goes by since the last 2years it has rained and flooded many times.

I wonder if there is some association to the three loud bangs and deep reverberation a couple days ago in NC which I also felt around 545pm?
My dogs were visibly upset by it. It felt the reverb thru my shoes from the floor.
Could we be in store for a big one? 6.4 in indonesia and 6.9 in Japan today as well.

I still feel minor jolts like some energy wave or something, it feels like being trapped in magnetic waves or something.

You have to be really alert with your senses balance and touch because if you are not you won't notice it. I guess the more sportive you are the better intuned. You have to be very still as that helps, both feet flat to the ground and don't allow body movements, sitting or standing will do.

It feels like when a train goes past a platform, the vibration in the concrete as it passes.

I could be feeling shocks from different parts of the world when a quake is about to happen or the Moon's gravitational forces pulling but either way they are here and frequent. Maybe its natural and nothing to worry about but never noticed it on Holiday only the UK since the Febuary 2008 quake.
