Sorry what is it you are asking? I am not sure what it is that is rattling you.

I think you may also get a discount on that Mag 6.0 off Japan today. USGS has it on offer at 5.7 Mw and 5.8 Mw now, but there is only one remaining on stock. Still 6.0 on the web site however so this is an 8 day change candidate I think.

Talking of discounts I said earlier "That will be going up I think. I am guessing 6.7" in response to the 6.5 Solomon Islands as I thought the phase data looked to be averaging at least that in mb, and yet they have come in a 6.4 Mw. :shk: I don't think I will ever understand how they work these out.

Sorry for interfering P Man but I think they don't know either.

Thank you for your reply. I have been watching the seimo's for cali, and it looks to me like something is building up. After reading Trueamericans thread regarding the region, his words are making me alittle nervous. My question is, Is there in fact something building up or am I just getting too excited.

We have a friend who lives in the northern region of the state. She is old and insists the earthquake rattles don't bother her. But we would really like her to move closer to family. This is the reason I get alittle excited when things start rattling more than normal in the area.

This event has been reviewed by a seismologist.

Concerned about the Oregon Quakes.
Two in a row, not good.

Thank you for posting, will return
for updates.

Yeah, now PNSN is in line with that. Theyve changed their map to show only one. Originally they posted two that were a couple of minutes apart and two miles difference in depth. But when I went back to get more data they had gone to just one.

Folks - Happy end of V-Day = Please those of you on the northwest of the USA take special note of the ongoing issues set forth above = this is a very serious issue that all of you need to pay special attention to and inform your neighbors and friends who are not in the know!!!! Please things have gone past interesting and of special interest into IMO a real RED ZONE. Don't mean to scare anyone - but - it is what it is and at this point - really, anything can happen = the zone/fault is --- - - idk - - feel it -- quivering / vibrating / snapping / = ready to bust - to many larger one all over the area in to short at time = take a vacation!!

When did they take the seismograph displays off USGS?

Yep, especially with the one in/ near Canada around the same time...

Couple this with the 5.9 in Cali yesterday, and the west coast has had quite the action in the last 24 hours.

Oregon - a specific location in the USA that has been too often in the news over this past few weeks with all sorts of strange reports. And I am not even from or in the USA - just about opposite side of Globe in Thailand.

I know the jury is still out on the strange boxes; but there definatley seems to be an increased number of UFO/USO related reports. Is the stress build up on the fault lines really strong? Looking at increased number of stronger shakes up an down the same plates it seems to call for close inspection.

May I take this opportunity to remind all you folks with short memories that on the 10th Jan 2010 there was a 6.5 not far from the current epicentre and people did not jump up and down as much as they are today.

earthquake.usgs.gov...

Of course we had the usual OMG is this just before the big one?

And guess what? We are all still here to do it all again.

There was a 5.2 and a series of 4+ in February of 2011. This particular on has been on the boil since December 2010.

Vancouver popped off a 6+ and yup, we are still here. The warnings and portends of doom are getting way over the top recently, but I have to say that Dutchsinse's offering on this event is actually almost reasonable. Perhaps he is learning. Everyone needs to take a step back and calm down a bit. This does not mean you should not have your emergency plans prepared, but for goodness sake just stop psyching the whole thing up out of proportion.

I say the plates are still adjusting after Japan, but then I am not an expert and I must apologise for not being such a doom monger as some. 120 Octane doom just is not my style.

Yes something big will happen off the coast, but it is not going to be tomorrow, or next week, or next month, and probably not even in the next year - 21 Dec 2012 maybe


To add: If you want something to get worked up about go and study the Sun. What is (or perhaps one should say is not) happening with our Sun is way more serious than a small earthquake of Oregon and will have far more effect on ALL our lives in the the next few decades.


By the way this will go down, or back down to 5.9 on the 8th day maybe even 5.8. Take a look at the tensor solutions.

Those don't often get changed. Even if this does not make it with a change on the web site it will be down in the PDE.
