Is That the Pitter-Patter of Little (Seismic) Feet?
Latest Earthquakes Updates ^ | Nov 10-11, 2018 | USGS staff

Posted on 11/09/2018 10:43:17 PM PST by Oscar in Batangas

Somewhere around 250 recorded tremors in the past 24 hours, according to the USGS in the CA-NV area. Nothing upsetting, but there is a lot of action along the more infamous fault lines. Put the USGS page setting to:

1 Day, All Magnitudes U.S.

in order to see them all

Maybe this is a GOOD thing. Lots of little ones instead of one big one. But be alert over there

Looks pretty typical

At the peak of the Kilauea eruption there were up to 800 events per day of this intensity range, so nothing to get overheated about so far.

I watch these and very quiet right now. Well at least in the Reno-Tahoe area.

Where are you seeing the count anyway. I don’t see them. I’m looking at it for all magnitudes and see very few all up and down the border.

When the big one hits, it’s gonna be Trump’s fault anyway.

Sometimes they say the little ones relieve some of the pressure that's built up, and sometimes they say the little ones loosen things up to allow for the big one.

The one thing to note is that because of the way the Richter Scale goes (logarithmic) little ones are much much smaller than the big ones and in the long run probably have little or no effect on the probability of the Big One happening.

I usually choose California from the pull-down tab in the upper right part of the map then zoom in a bit catch CA-NV mostly. Don’t forget to select “1 Day, All Magnitudes U.S.” in the settings panel.

Simi Valley to Salton Sea SW of the San Bernardino Range has about ¾ of them at the present time.

Has the Steamboat Springs re-erupted yet?. One of the features of the locality when I lived in Carson City years ago. Its activity varies, depending on the latest seismic shifts.

Portions of the eruption field have been harnessed for geothermal power generation, but all that could disappear pretty quickly if things started getting really lively.

There have been some recent “scientific” papers published blaming global warming for increased seismic activity.

That’s like getting a flat and blaming the tire instead of the nail.

Yep, I have seen over 1200-1300 a week being recorded in this area of Ca and Nv.

It’s “earthquake weather” here in California, with hot, dry winds. There is no scientific correlation, but, informally, a lot of Californians put the two together.

Wow. I had not heard that before.

A guy on YouTube, Ben Davidson, runs a site called Suspicious Observers.

His discussions are at the Dom Perignon (as opposed to Ripple) level, but his organization concentrates on “space weather” and gets into the multiple connection modes of solar emissions and the solar system.

Two highly-convincing presentations deal with earthquake activity and global warming. (hint: it ain’t us puny humans for the most part).
