USGS is now showing two 7.0 quakes in that region. The second one has a depth of 10 km; however, it has not been reviewed yet.

Just as I posted this, USGS removed the 7.0 at 229.4 km.

You are correct it was a shindo 5. My bad memory!

This was the post with the magnitude details.

www.abovetopsecret.com...

EMSC now have it as a 5.0 but USGS are still 4.9. The green is EMSC.



The USGS description leaves much to be desired. It says near the coast of Honshu, yet for ones in the sea it says off the coast. Not much distinction really.

I still don't see that one in my database and later stuff has already come in. I am wondering if like the 7.0 earlier there it has been deleted?

The 4.8 has just come in.

So would I be right in saying that it is a nice day, reasonably warm?

That sounds just what glider pilots call a 'cloud street'. Basically many rows of cumulus clouds forming, that will get larger and tend to join up as the day goes on. It is called a street because there is good lift under those and you can glide 'down the street' and even go street hopping.

Earthquakes clouds are yet to be proven to exist as far as I am aware.

However, these claims have very little support in the scientific community.

This is because RSOE and the BBC are idiots and neither check their facts.

There was 1 earthquake, registered as a 6.7 by EMSC and a 6.8 by USGS. There was a 7.0 but it was deleted and replaced with the 6.8. Edit: Actually I tell a lie. Looking at my revisions the 6.8 was posted as well as the deleted 7.0, and was first posted as a 7.0 and then revised to 6.8 - See below. So for at least a few minutes there were 2 but no one in Auntie thought to check. Typically of course RSOE has not updated the magnitude and probably never will yet says it's source is USGS-RSOE. They don't source anything! They work from the same list that I do.

I see RSOE have changed it to one. That makes a pleasant change!! Perhaps they are learning.

Ok. Thanks for clarifying.
Guess RSOE is the lesser of evils to go by then...?

Personally I would not use Auntie or RSOE for anything (they are Radio Hams after all)

They have their uses as a source of other events perhaps but for earthquakes I would be using EMSC and/or USGS depending really on the areas you are interested in.

For Europe obviously EMSC is better. For the UK you could take the occasional peek at BGS.

All of these are found in the links in my signature.

Thanks, I have that Makran quake on the 1945 7+Project page/map/list as an 8.3 Unk Mag, data from NOAA, I still haven't revised the pages from 1948's back with the Centennial List yet, so haven't got any other sources or magntudes for it.
Always handy to get some extra descriptions as well, thats the hardest part, finding descriptions.
I should put the source of the descriptions on too I guess, has only come to light when posting off the Project to ATS, I've forgotten where I got 90% of the texts now

Two 3.7M Northern California in the space of 30min?

Is this something to be wary of?
Apologies for my lack of knowledge on this matter.

Edit to add: Not to worry - found a thread who's discussion has helped calm my unusually nervous feeling tonight (else I would have thought twice about posting something that is obviously being watched by those on this thread and would've likely been mentioned before I posted I'm sure!).
