3.2 quake inside Mt. Rainier

Posted on 11/07/2004 2:25:19 PM PST by djf

Well, folks, many come here and over and over deny there is no linkage between volcano events.

1.2 2004/11/06 01:01:50 46.845N 121.761W 0.0 1 km ( 1 mi) S of Mount Rainier




Six quakes there since yesterday, the biggest a 3.2, all occurring inside the mountain at a depth of 1-1.5 KM, seismic activity as reflected above at the Longmire station VERY VERY similar to what happened on St. Helens in the months preceding the eruption.

Sleep tight! Don't let the bedbugs bite!

Downwind of the cap cloud, the lenticular or wave clouds sometimes extend well over eastern Washington state, with a successively smaller cloud at each crest in the airflow. We can occasionally see clouds from different Cascade peaks simultaneously, at different altitudes and directions. Rattlesnake mountain, at 3,500 feet, frequently adds its own lower-altitude wave and rotor clouds.

Good evening there, BearWash! What side of the mountain are you on?

I YI YI YI...I'm sitting here in my new house, some 60 miles from said mountain...it's big I tell you, damn big.

And the soil I'm sitting on, on the shores of Puget Sound, was deposited there by that mountain in millenia past. If Mt. Rainier goes, my oh my, there's going to be some very serious loss of life around here.

That's interesting because the weather forcast is for rain on Tuesday. Did you see the article in the paper last week about Rainier specifically that the glacier on Rainier is equal to 1 cubic mile? That's a lot of flow to melt if it happens.

It is a sure sign of:
+an evolving geology in North America
+punishment for Washington State voting for Kerry
+the end times

Take your pick or my choice: all three...

The old Indian saying is that whenever Tahoma (Rainier) wears a hat, it will rain in two days. I believe it.

Being a lifetime resident I have heard of that before and yes, it generally does rain, but this cloud formation was not directly over Mt. Rainier, at least not when I saw it The clouds are interesting though and pretty.

For those of us "within range", here are some good ideas from secretsofsurvival.com:




During an Eruption:

Save water in your bath, basin, containers or cylinders at an early stage - supplies may become polluted.

Stay indoors with your pets as much as possible.

Wear mask and goggles if you go outside, to keep volcanic ash out of your eyes and lungs.

Keep gutters and roof clear of heavy deposits of ash, which can collapse the roof.

Take your outdoor clothing off before entering a building - volcanic ash is difficult to get rid of.

Take your Getaway Kit with you if you have to leave. Turn electricity and gas off at the mains. If you turn gas off, have a professional check for leaks in case of damage before turning gas on again.

Keep below ridge lines in hilly terrain - the hills will offer some protection from flying volcanic debris.

DON’T Go sightseeing!

DON’T Leave home unless advised to by the Civil Defense.

Thanks! I already have most of these covered.

DON'T DRIVE YOUR VEHICLE!

Geologists are saying this is not in any way related to St. Helens.

Nothing happening here, folks. Go back to sleep.

Then, in their very next breath, they say this was the largest event on Mt. Rainier in the last 30+ years or so.
