Oh,yeah.... felt it big time! Lights flickered here too. Felt more "shaking" than "rolling". It felt alot like the 4.3 in AR earlier this year.

GEE was going nuts too. I`ll send you a screenshot.

No new damage there, I hope!

Interestingly the JMA is carrying this quake at 6.8 (I guess it is close enough to and affected Japan), and if you look at their intensity at site, it doesn't look too bad:
www.jma.go.jp...

Of course epicenter was over water, so not too much land mass in the area to affect, thank God.

And oh, Susan, yeah all the stations already mentioned, most on the TA network. TA.V35A is the closest to this recent activity, and why I already mentioned it.

OK guys what effect is all this rain going to have on the epicenter area....is that what triggered this bigger quake...would the 4.7 be considered an aftershock...or have we not had the big one?

A strong earthquake has occurred, but a tsunami IS NOT expected along the California, Oregon, Washington, British Columbia, or Alaska coast. NO tsunami warning, watch or advisory is in effect for these areas.

Based on the depth of the earthquake within the earth, a tsunami IS NOT expected along the California, Oregon, Washington, British Columbia, and Alaska coasts.

At 6:59 PM Pacific Standard Time on November 7, an earthquake with preliminary magnitude 6.8 occurred northeast of Taiwan at 222km depth. (Refer to the United States Geological Survey for official earthquake parameters.)

Pacific coastal regions outside California, Oregon, Washington, British Columbia, and Alaska should refer to the Pacific Tsunami Warning Center messages for information on the event.

watch Taipei LISS graph get saturated over the next hour or so

the Japs have 6.8ML

I have U32A, V35A, W35AA, TA41B and WMOK up. Let GEE load may take it a few minutes.

OH MY IT IS THE BIG X ON GOOGLE EARTH.

But wasn't it debunked to be the thing on mars?

Ha Ha.........who knows..........

But Japan just had a 5.2..........the action continues

Make that a 6.9 for japan in the last hour

Don't think I ever saw five red squares show up at one time before!

More earthquakes, tornado watches for OK today, and an asteroid passing close to Earth tomorrow!

NUFF already!!!!

Do you know where the moon will be tomorrow when 2005 YU55 crosses its' orbit, or what part of the Earth will be facing that way? They just said on the news that it probably won't be bright enough for people to see. They could have done a little more in depth reporting! There are some people who are interested! Too much gossip for them to report on this week!

Even the earthquakes are only getting a mere mention on national news!

reply to post by muzzy


That's an important point. Big quakes happen. Moon close or far. Magnetics high or low. Tide high or low. Puterman high or... no, just kidding...

I post this here because all that eartqvekes in 32min are in one post, from other thread have some info too ..

It's similar time like last one for Oklahoma and similar position of moon ..

Maybe someone be interested in that info and we have full moon today ..
Nov 8 13:21 406176 km + F-2d 6h

This internal pressure could very easily to finish at Oklahoma or similar but very good it's finish like this, more different places ..

Because I heard and see one very strong signal before few hours, here at my home is equipment EU for monitory hertz signals from depth in Earth ..

If you want to understood earthquakes first thing what you need to know that internal pressure is global and can be hear everywhere in world, there are only weak or more dangerous places and travel very fast ..

Have so many thing what have influence and all that need to be know max and combine to understood eartqvekes ..


This one was 5 minutes before Oklahoma, all earthquake are in 32 min ..

Another moderate quake in Ok coming across GEE right now. Around a 4.5 or so?

You talking about that bump registering around 8 microns/sec on TA.V35A?

If so, that might make it on their 1.5+ list.

But it was real weak. Since the last 4.7, been watching pretty attentively, and seen nothing that big, but hey, that's what we have the

earthquake.usgs.gov...

for. Been posting amplitude references for the bigger OK quakes in thread, so maybe you have missed them wc? But that's ok. I don't mean to sound mean or anything. But that last 4.7 hit about 1.2 mm/sec on TA.V35A if I remember right.

And darnit. Looks like we just lost V35A, the star station at this point in OK. It's going into freak mode, and that usually means the end until they fix it. I saw them do a calibration pulse earlier today on it. Don't be surprised if it is shut down soon. That's gonna suck. Will have to use the others, and W35A is next closest. Hope it doesn't fry too?

reply to post by TrueAmerican


Yup....TA.V35A BHE

It was a sharp spike up to 100 mm/sec

It was odd signal, but correclated with a couple of other stations that registered it as being much smaller. Perhaps it was quite close and jostled something? I dunno....but whenever I have seen one that high it is over 4.0. I looked at the nearest seismo though: seismo (it's the second quake after the 4.7) so obviously it was MUCH smaller than what it showed on that channel.

I dunno what caused it....lots of waves right now


ETA: yup. it's off. ugh. U35A is a decent 2nd too

Dont jinx me TA! I've been watching W35A for 12 hours a day... I dont know how many days a week! So you KNOW you saying that will totally mess with me

There are 181 injection wells in the Oklahoma county where most of the weekend earthquakes happened, said Matt Skinner, spokesman for the Oklahoma Corporation Commission, which oversees oil and gas production in the state and intrastate transportation pipelines.

It's hard to believe something like this wouldn't have a little to do with earthquakes in Oklahoma.
