Earthquake Roulette

The earthquake on Sunday, which rattled the California-Mexico border, was as large in energy magnitude as the disaster in Haiti, and the third major quake in the Western Hemisphere over the last three months. Even placed in the slow-moving context of earth time, these quakes were major events. The Sunday shaker was magnitude 7.2, the strongest in Southern California in two decades, and felt by more than 20 million people, though mercifully only killed a few people.

In looking at the USGS world map, I got to wondering what was happening in that great expanse called Canada,
so I googled it
they are rockin and rollin up there as well.

earthquakescanada.nrcan.gc.ca...

When I saw yesterday on the 7.2 earthquake, it was another earthquake of magnitude 6.6 in Southern California. After a few minutes it was deleted. Why?

reply to post by Austria


This happens more frequently that you may think Austria.

Sometimes it is cultural noise, later identified as such but at first picked up as a quake. You should also bear in mind that quakes over 2.5 (I think) are automatically posted and then reviewed and adjusted so if the computer system got it wrong a quake will appear and then disappear.

You are probably aware that we had a major incidence of that just a few days ago.

Update on the Baja totals as the last graphs wer before the end of the day (UTC)

Cumulative quakes (bear in mind this is 4 days and not 7 so the totals are slightly different)


Magnitudes in occurrence order. (Same applies on counts)
