California going off!

reply to post by Char-Lee


Where do you find the number of quakes hit?

The map I keep an eye on doesnt give a count.

Small quake at the Newberry Volcanic area and another link to Geothermal exploration.


Newberry Volcano has been explored as a potential source for geothermal energy for more than three decades. High temperatures have been encountered, but fluid production has been inadequate for generating power. In fall of 2012, a deep well will be the focus of an enhanced geothermal systems experiment to open fractures beneath the volcano and test whether water circulated down the hole can be heated and brought to the surface to produce energy.


We are at 645!

what are the odds that 79% of the world's earthquakes happen on

reply to post by Char-Lee


Thanks Char-Lee

5.1 & 5.3 just happened in Chiapas, Mexico.

Quakes are very active today.

Anyone think it may have to do with the full moon?

WOW!!!!

I've never checked out the volcanoes. I had no idea there were that many.

I'm not so sure it's going to slow down but it seems after the full moon is in action we do, I know probably only makes sense to me as I just woke up.

I say we probably get to at least 750 by 4:00.

It's been unusually active but chances for another mag 7 seem out of the question so I'm going with the challenge there will be another mag 6.5+ today.

650 at 12.30 pacific time.

I don't think it will happen this time.

It seems to be slowing down some.....26 are going to drop off tomorrow, so we would need 118 more.
If we wouldn't get that many tomorrow, something like 147 are going to drop off on Sunday.
Unless we have another good swarm somewhere, I don't think we can catch up!

But what do I know...it's almost 1 AM here & I am really tired!!!
WOQ

Still going up but Yeah slowed way down
656 at 4.44 PM pacific coast

670 now, was 671 ten minutes ago though.

675 9.30 PM Pacific slowing but still going up! I think my 700 my tomorrow evening will make it!!

In actuality if you look at the top left of this map and set to all there is


2277 earthquakes
All events in the past 7 days

I think the largest measuring magnitude 5.5 and 5.3 (M5.5 and M5.3) rocked Southern California on August 26, 2012.

Someone correct me if I'm wrong.

At 692 now.

I think my guess of 724 by 4:00pm today will be beat, unless we have a quiet day.

Whoever it was that guessed 750, may be the winner!

It's increasing so slow because of dropoffs that it probably will hit seven hundred after twelve. Rats.

We seem to have different bets going on here, Mine is for time of 700 while others are using seven fifties and seven fourties with times. I guess we need to be more specific. I guess my 9-12 was also to vague as was your afternoon. Almost have to have a set time which is based on the time as viewed on the ATS site's recorded timestamp because of differences in timezones also. Why do things have to get so complicated?

I wonder how long it will increase! What if it never stops!

edit on 2-9-2012 by rickymouse because: (no reason given)

My bet was 724 at 4:00pm. Guess we will have to go with Pacific time

I may have had a chance at it if we went with EST.

Does anyone want to pick a new time?

Well, I didn't see it reach seven hundred this morning. I saw 699 and it went down since then. It may have hit seven hundred for a little while when I wasn't looking but I can't say I saw it. Good luck, I'll give you a star if you see it hits seven hours this afternoon. If anyone else meets their estimates and says so I'll give them a star also.
