RENO, Nev. (KOLO) - The Nevada Seismological Laboratory at the University of Nevada is reporting a series of earthquakes felt throughout northern Nevada and in California.
The first, a magnitude 5.8, hit at 12:18 a.m. Wednesday, December 28, 2016. It hit 18 miles southwest of Hawthorne, Nevada.
California is undocking from the continent, finally? :P
Stick around. The earth does all kinds of ‘weird’ things.
‘Goodbye, California’...
More like ‘good riddance.’
Looked at the area on Google Earth and it is an area just this side the the CA border. It looks to me to be an area with lava flows and there also is something here called the Aurora Crater. Being that this seems like a swarm, it appears to be more like volcanic activity. There exists a series of faults called The Walker Line in the area as well.
Link to an article from a swarm in the same area in 2011 but the biggest quake was in the low 4’s.

That’s not an earthquake. It’s Donald Trump coming to kick Jerry Brown’s butt.
Still shaking here.
Since you are right there, what do you know of the Aurora Crater area?

It seems that the higher power which has been protecting Trump from the day of his announcement by systematically taking out of the race or destroying anyone attacking him (even the jerk university professor who harassed his daughter Ivanka on Jet Blue has already been fired), seems to be issuing a warning to California.
Link to the Prof getting fired?
It was on various various social media, but I didn’t save links and Google search doesn’t return anything on that any more. There was even an FR thread claiming that, but apparently it was pulled by now.
That’s a pretty cool Youtube channel. I got it bookmarked now and I subscribed to it.
And elsewhere but not too close, about 800 miles from me a volcano has erupted. In the Aleutians. Ring of Fire waking up?
If so then i would kerp a VERY close eye on the Cascadia Fault, and btw Mt. St. Helens had rumblings recently as well.
And of course New Zealand had its tremors, go opposite the globe and they appear afterwards.

I’m not a geologist, and really don’t think about it. When there some deep investigation into magma, then I’ll be concerned. Earthquakes and geothermal activity are a fact of life here.
#Calexit the natural way?
I knew it! Climate change, oh, and Trump’s fault. (pardon pun)
Saucer separation
How would an earthquake in the 10.4 - 11.6 range along the California coast affect the electoral college?
