Just about to post the same thing...

I just lost 2 stations on GEE. Anyone else? Something sizable just occurred.

On station H18a on GEE something much bigger than normal just occurred at 18:33 UTC; H17a doesn't seem to receive any data. This seems big!

here they come look at gee

big event just happened, 300 on the gee meters, holy crap, that's gotta be at least a 3 if not 4. The 2.7 registered 100 on gee for comparison.

That just goes to show, if a 6+ were to hit, scale would show 1000 or better in Gee probably.

oh lordy - classic too many chefs in the kitchen ruining the dinner.

ugh - this is exactly what I've seen several times in minor events.

really, there are a lot of great people that work in these places - but they're not at the top, usually. systems in general work amazingly well in the US - and if you don't think so - travel. But in emergency, we're lazy and soft and we get burn out fast.

I think it's great to talk to people there on the ground. You might also want to show them the charts.

I work a lot with the City here and I find it wise never to assume that departments are always in the know, or in excellent communication with each other or state or federal.

I did send copies of some of the charts that have been posted in this thread along with other charts obtained directly from the USGS and Yellowstone monitoring stations. What was surprising was when the local guy got them in his email he was excited to see so many out in the community watching the readings and taking a great interest. I told him I was amazed as well. He did inform me that the USGS and the Wy. Geologists Association has far more detailed siesmograph charts than are published on the websites but they are not that much different, basically those on the websites are less complex for the general public use. They dont include much of the siesmology and geology jargon.

Im going to keep this contact info and check in with him regularly to see if they get any serious indications for a potential problem and pass it along here. Since the charts available for the public use are general in the information provided, maybe I can get a "1 step ahead of the curve" inside info from him and get it out to everyone if it becomes necessary.



Cheers!!!!

18:33 zulu -- All across the board. USGS reporting 3.4.. registered amplitude of 200+ on the microns/second -- and it shows up on all of the seismos that I'm watching (H16A, H17A, H18A)

Looks like a 3.4 just now
I guess it was waiting for me to get back to the computer.

Thanks again, Indy
