5.6 Just Hit Oklahoma..........Felt in Joplin, Mo

EarthQuake list

I am looking at this list and it is like the 5.6 at 4 pm was erased? The new time is 4:03pm univeral time but that is almost 11 pm my time it says???? if you notice on this list there is huge chunk of time missing from 2:53 pm until the "offical' report of the 5.6? Why is that? If the first one was small it would have not made the news nor would I have felt in Kansas City. There is a huge discrepency here that my intellect and gut feeling will not allow me to shrug off? What the heck is going on??
I heard about this earthquake at 5:30 pm yesterday. I wish I would have posted a thread about this yesterday afternoon. Is something being covered up? Am I missing something? They report a major earthquake on the news then change the time? I know I felt something later in the evening as well but the first one was at around 4 pm!

I'm in Dallas so not right at the middle of it all. The first one I never felt at all. The one that happened at 11 pm shook my house enough to freak out my kids. It was strong enough that one of them thought someone ran into the house with a car. I thought that initially but when it keep shaking I knew it was an earthquake. I was out in West Texas last month right at the epicenter when they had those earthquakes there and realized right away what it was.

Based on that history it felt like about a 3.0 - 3.5 here in the north Dallas area. Nothing dramatic but I've never felt one here before at all so it was quite unusual.

I slept through it but the few people I've talked to this morning all felt it here in KC north of the river. One was at home, one at a bar and the other in the hospital. The last said the door and windows of the hospital were rattleing and the nurses said it was "another tremor". Apparently they felt the first one too. Thats a decent range, from Dallas to Liberty, MO.

Was the first one at 4 pm central time? It is offically off the record now? I just don't understand why? Either there is a time shift here or they are hiding something. Either way I am offically freaked out. Next time this happens I a posting on here right away just in case recent history changes again.

I'm not sure what time the first one was, when I talk to him later I'll ask.

On a off topic note; since I've been sitting outside smoking and drinking my coffee there is a lot of helicopter traffic going to downtown airport this morning. One has made 3 trips so far.

He said first one was at 2:30 but wasn't sure if the nurses meant am or pm.

Unlike what has been happening down in Arkansas...........

These quakes seem to be decent in size..........

A 4.0 occured in the last hour........

Earthquakes are normal agreed, but not of this size in Oklahoma.

A lot of people here are nervous, excited, concerned, and some scared, because it's not normal.

A F4 Tornado in New York not normal, however small ones can happen; F3 & F4 tornadoes in Oklahoma normal? Yes.

Trust me it was sarcasm..



THE biggest earthquake to ever hit OK certainly is not normal.

Especially the before shock the 4.5 before this bigger shock..

Interesting times we live in.

Did anyone check the cloud coverage before it happened
HARP anyone?

Oklahoma have one more of M 4.0 before 30 min ..

Felt two here in Tulsa. The friday night (2pm) was like a sharp jolt that only lasted a few seconds. The saturday night one was a long rolling rumble that went on for 30-45 seconds.

Fracking

Earthquakes do happen on their own, too.

reply to post by Dalke07


Compared to the swarms down in Arkansas..........these seem to be a little more intense.........And they feel that way as well............

Sure looks like another "Big" one could come.........

reply to post by ludshed


Thank you for that. I just talked to a guy at USGS and there was NO earthquake in the afternoon over 2.0 at all. I know what I felt was in the afternoon because it was daylight. Was in 2;30 pm eastern or central. I am going to do some more digging around the internet to see what I can find about the afternoon earthquake.

I am originally from Wichita Falls, a town on the Texas Oklahoma border. My dad called me and told me that they had an Earthquake.

I Called BS on his claim, until I saw the news.
To me that's weird that an earthquake would happen there. I know they have them but to such an extent that they can be felt makes me wonder if there is something to this whole new Madrid stuff.

Earthquakes in uncommon places recently have become the norm.

don't worry folks, that is just underground bunkers being destroyed

For all you football fans out there..........Kirk Herbstreits face is priceless and I think represents all of our faces who felt this 5.6 that rattled our homes..........

Kirk was broadcasting live in Oklahoma when the quake hit.........

Well hello my fellow NKC gal. Pretty strange, no one I've talked to thats born and raised here (gladstone) has ever felt an earthquake before.
