Just a friendly heads up. Not sure most of this info is being reported by regular news outlets.

Earthquake activity around the pacific region has drastically increased over the last week. And continues as I type this.

This includes increased activity in North, Central, South America, Indonesia and Asia.

The quakes are both shallow and very deep, over such a huge area, and in such great numbers in such a short time, that more than local movements are involved.

Also, in many areas there is a very large increase in the movement of magma, such as Yellowstone and Hawaii.

You probably are aware of the two large volcano explosions in Indonesia within the last week. These 2 volcanoes are over 700 miles apart. And may only be the begining of more explosions in other regions.

There are several "expert theories " worth knowing.

The entire pacific crust may be shifting. If so, this has the potential to cause major chaos and destruction.

The movement of the entire crust may be causing wave action within the liquid core. This large area of magma movement may result in more volcanic explosions.

This is the time to prepare for a major shtf chaos event. Stay alert.

Sorry for any spelling errors. My old eyes need new glasses, but, with the covid chaos, I'm staying away from unnecessary trips to town.
 
Too bad there aren't many earthquakes in RED states. One could look at that as natural selection.

Question
If the West coast of the United States breaks off, will we float? Frankly, if we float I'll be happy leaving the rest of our shit hole country, that likes Trump, behind.
 
Do you have a link?

Try
DS.IRIS.EDU/SEISMON. Seismic monitor.
This map shows the complete ring of recent earthquake activity around the pacific ocean.

There are better and more complete interactive maps I have seen, but I do not subscribe to them.

Most of the info I posted came from several very long professional reports that included the maps. I just posted my cliff note version.

Not sure why the news sources are not reporting this?
 
4.1 earthquake near Hawaii about 2 hours ago, followed by several smaller quakes.

Here is the number of quakes in the last 24 hours, by magnitude. Most are around the Pacific plate.

5+...2
4-5..30
3-4..247
Less than mag 3...615

The good news is, none of these are the big one .
 
Mother Earth is pitching and woing!
 
Is this the conspiracy theory my mom has been talking about?
 
I read that there are 13 active volcanos in the Cascades in Oregon that are due to vent...but that the damage will stop about 50 miles east of Springfield in Lane County ...I have the Coastal range between my property and the ocean and I'm at 800ft above sea level....I may have island property one day

Oh shit, I'm only 640 ft. above sea level. Still, that's higher than most people.
 
I bet you the Trump supporters on here don’t believe in earthquakes. And if you told them the best way to survive would be to stand in a doorway, they would refuse to do it!

If they won't wear a mask then I figure they won't stand in a doorway during an earthquake especially if you told them it was the safe thing to do and you are a known Democrat.
Try telling the fuckers the Earth is round and they know you to be a Democrat.

Hows it going Fish!

Any links to any of this? Id love to read up on it.

Too bad there aren't any earthquakes in asshole posts. One cold look at it as improved selection....

Why you would need to take something like this into the political arena is ridiculous....
Mother nature doesn't see politics... or asshole posts....

Youda thunk Ida learnt to read on, before commenting on the first post. LOL.


So seems to me this may be a good thing overall though right?

A bunch of small releases vs one giant one?

Howdy big guy. Good to yak with you again.

Short answer to your question, yes.

I hate to speculate, but since you asked. My gut guess is, the worst is over, for now. This is still a very fluid situation that not over, so anything is possible. But the trend is moving the needle to the safer zone.

I am no expert, my next opinion is pure bullshit, don't know what I am talking about speculation, with NO scientific mention anywhere I can find, let alone backed up by research.

All this recent earthquake activity around the Pacific crust "may be" the result of global warming.

We know the ice caps are melting. Water is heavy. The weight on the crust has been reduced at the poles. Much of this water weight has moved to the largest body of water, the Pacific ocean. This has increased the weight on the crust.

Just maybe the Pacific crust is settling from the extra weight, instead of shifting?


Removed the radiation alert in Europe. Someone had the wrong settings and was reading the polution alerts, but thought it was set to radiation, which makes sense now.

On a side note, four areas in Europe are showing very high levels of radiation. France, Portugal, I believe Turkey, or near there, and one other eastern Europian country. This is all very new info, I have no idea what is going on, but it is not normal.

yeah, that sounds plausible. Though the oceans also move and its weight shifts. Maybe part of the pendulum creating this?

i remember watchign a show some years back saying that us in the nw are about as protected as we can get overall. We have the pacific rim and the volcanos but our crusts are very thick and the mountains snd coastal range make our area not as “loopy”

its why our earthquakes shake, Instead of roll also that tsunamis will typically break up due to the puget sound snd coastal range.
Basically the show said aside from a complete breakdown in the plates, we are in one of the safest places to endure a tectonic shift.
 
Aren't you being a little harsh? We should all have a little latitude to let off some steam.

you think so?

guy comes into a non political thread and basically says he wants mother nature to wipe out all republicans... possibly just because a republican started the thread?
He added nothing to it and just derailed it with political bs In a non political thread.
Im not being any harsher to him then he has been to me.
he also went into the prediction thread and tried to get me riled up.
He is trolling...

and then claims innocent when he gets in trouble or people go after him. Its pathetic Lanny.
Ill let it go. But im not being harsh at all. Im being real.

it has to be exceptionally intensive, (+5.0) or of exceptionally long duration before it gets any attention here, location is very important also (proximity). the last one of consequence as far as damage and attention grabbing was in 2006 and occurred offshore of the kohala district, the Northwest channel area between Hawaii and Maui. shook everything for around 20 seconds or so. even that one had very little impact on the east side of the island. was a magnitude 6.2 IIRC.
Kind of what you expect, I suppose, when you live on top of an active volcano merged with multiple other mostly inactive ones.
