If the quake didn’t get Harry and his crooked son, I don’t want to hear about it.

Get back to me later when Mother Earth does her thing properly.

I heard it is windy in Cheyenne. Brutally cold wind in the winter, tumbleweeds in the summer.

Nashville: landlocked heat.

Maybe Fort Collins, CO. but all the natives wanna secede.

R U implying a nuclear device or other high explosive device was “tested”. Were that the case that was awfully close to a lightly populated community (Caliente). Not that that ever stopped them in the 1950s with fallout over southern Utah. Just curious as to your thinking.

Nevada is subject to several earthquake faults...quakes are not strangers to us.

I won't go so far as saying it was a nuke although one could make that assumption. What I am saying it was a fairly large event that doesn't seem to have standard EQ markers. I drew the tracing from a Utah seismic site that was just over the state border.

The pattern of the event was curious. It seemed atypical for a normal EQ. Remember the Barksdale nukes are not all accounted for.

The green tracing reflects the 15 minute period of the recorder time - allows seismologists to tell one event from another since they spread all over a sheet.

It was a quake for goodness sake. variations in seismograph patterns are a function of multiple influences - proximity, depth of quake, wave arrival times, etc.

5/22/2015 — Whole West coast moved over 48 hours — Oregon Earthquake near Erupting Volcano

May 22, 2015 Michael Janitch

 Over the past 48 hours the whole of the West coast of the United States has moved on at least a 4.0 magnitude level or greater.

Currently, another mid-4.0 magnitude (4.2 M) earthquake has struck the West coast, off the shores of Oregon, near the Axial undersea volcano (which is currently erupting).

Thanks for your post, Satin Doll. Wow...

We won't sleep well tonight.

I lived in socal for a loooong time and saw many seismographs of whatever quake had happened ....

that pic of the Nevada event does NOT look normal.

A normal seismograph shows the quake start gradually increasing, reaches its maximum, then gradually decreasing.

The seismograph in the pic of this event in Nevada reaches its maximum right away, then goes for awhile, then decreases.

Also, having been through various sizes of quakes, one feels it coming on gradually, then it gets up to its maximum, then gradually decreases.
