This could be bad... USGS shows two in the Philippines with same mag and same depth, I am sure it's in error.. hope so anyway.

I expected something though,too weird... California has had a swarm and too many 4's. IDK.. just something I noticed and felt. Hopefully not many casualties if any at all.

The Earth is shaking...

So far earthquake-report.com... is showing this below.. "I felt it reports"


iligan city - horrable
Cagayan de Oro City - I am about to shake.. Still up to this point, I am still bit dizzy.
Cabanglasan, Bukidnon, PH - very strong earthquake that lasted more than a minute
iligan city - it moved my bed from one corner to the other..
Iligan City, Lanao del Norte, Philippine - I was asleep when the earthquake occurred. My family vacated the building right away. I didn't really want to leave yet at first, thinking that it was just a mild earthquake. But the entire house began to shook horribly. And so I got up in no time and flew downstairs.
Naawan Misamis Oriental - We experience strong earthquake around 1min or least..
Iligan - Shocking!
Iligan City - It was 1-2 minutes long.
Pandan, Antique Aklan - In a two-story home. Felt side to side shaking, movement of lights and standing fans, etc.
Opol - pool from Apple Tree overflowed
sapang dalaga - it was scary for me! God is only the words ive said!
Brgy. San Miguel, Iligan City - Scary experience.. But luckily nothing bad happens..


ETA: USGS took the secod one down but look what I noticed popped up all of a sudden.

The Pacific Tsunami Warning Center in Hawaii said there was no threat of a Pacific-wide tsunami after the quake.

The quake struck at a depth of about 35 km (22 miles) around Bohol island, to the north of Mindanao island. There were no immediate reports of injuries or damage.

Church collapse on Bohol


Wow.



Small cities closer to the quake were hit with “very strong” and “severe” shaking, including San Isidro, Danao, San Pascual, and Jandayan.

Communication and power lines were down in Butuan City after the earthquakes. According to pictures from Bohol–where the 7.2 quake’s epicenter originated–numerous buildings are damaged or have collapsed, including Loboc Church.

Roads are damaged, too. There are unconfirmed reports of four dead, according to the Philippine Information Agency.

A video already.. playing it on earthquake-report.com...

Still awaiting news from the Press Conference.

Maybe not as bad as I originally thought which is really good!

But then I read this below ...


So far NO word of Balilihan, a city with 17000 inhabitants and only a couple of km from the epicenter. Sevilla, another location very close to the epicenter has about 10,000 inhabitants. Tagbilaran City, a city within a radius of 30 km from the epicenter has more than 100,000 inhabitants. The island of Bohol has a population of 1.2 million




According to the local ABS-CBN news network in the Philippines, at least 9 people were killed during the earthquake.

I gotta admire the resilience of the Filipino people for what they have to put up with and still get on with life. Super corrupt politicians and bureaucrats. Volcanic eruptions. Earthquakes. Tsunamis. Typhoons. Floods. Terrorism. Pirates.

This is a big one! I believe it is time for prayers. The damage is extensive and the fatalities are rising with every new report.

My prayers are with the people of Philippines.

Another major earthquake at the same time a CME is hitting Earth?

spaceweather.com...

There are those who will say there is no scientific proof of any correlation between the two but we should pay attention.

What about the Iron Core of Earth being affected by Solar Electromagnetic Discharge?
