We had a 5.0 in the mountains east of us a couple of days ago. No damage here, but I'm sure a few ruffled feathers in the forest.Originally Posted by Bel-Cam Jos
That website now shows 891 earthquakes in CA and NV the last week. WOW!

I checked it again today, and for the first time since I've been looking at the earthquake website, there were more than 1000 quakes over the last week.
Keeler, a place near Sequoia NP, has had at least two 5.0+, some 4.0+, and many 3.0+ there.
Next week, CA has its second (or more?) annual Great Shakeout, with a statewide disaster drill. Would it be ironic if a big one hit the day before those drills? I sure hope not."May the 4th be with you?" "Why yes, thank you for asking."

Last week when I checked, it reached a high of 1024 quakes, but this morning, it's back down to 746. Weird, weird.

What do baseball and earthquakes have in common?

It's the 20th anniversary of the Loma Prieta earthquake in the Bay Area which halted the 3rd game of the World Series between the Giants and the A's.¡Que la fuerza te acompañe!

I remember that day quite well. I saw some footage before a church meeting. That clip of the car getting buckled on the Oakland Bay Bridge still is haunting.
BTW, our Great Shakeout disaster drill at school went fairly well, as far as I saw."May the 4th be with you?" "Why yes, thank you for asking."

Maybe stuff like that inspires lyrics like "I felt the Earth move under my feet" Originally Posted by Bel-Cam Jos

Over 220 quakes in CA and NV the past day. Several 3.0+ around the Golden State and NW Mexico.

Not as many CA quakes lately, but more 3.0+s than recently; even a couple 4.0+s. And there's about four main bunches of quakes throughout the state. Concern?

Nope. The system is just relieving pressure: nice and easy! (Parkfield style). It's they way we should prefer to do business. No Sylmars, Whittiers, Northridges, etc., thank you very much! Just the occasional burp, please. Originally Posted by Bel-Cam Jos
