This is California on crack.

[Berlin_Freeper]

California needs to get out there and rake that or no playing with the money.

Is this as bad as it sounds or is it common after large earthquakes?

And why am I asking you? :)

I figured maybe since you posted it you know a thing or two about the subject :)

Don’t they sell Grout in CA?

When I was in the Boy Scouts we stopped on our way back from a hike and went down into a fissure caused by the San Andreas fault. Ground level was hot — it was in the desert. Down inside the fissure it was cool as a refrigerator.

It may cause cancer in rats.

LOL

This appears to be an ongoing event that is a BFD and could get to be worse.

The quakes are almost continuous and spreading in distance.

Should whatever fault that lies east of Mt. Whitney get involved, it will one of the BIG ones.

Did the scout master happen to tell you why?

I thought it would be opposite.

[Rebelbase]

Before and after. If you look at the before photo on the left you can see what appears to be the scars of prior movement.

[Tejas Rob]

Now they have somewhere to put all that shit people are leaving on the streets.

[faithhopecharity]

Californication was plenty cracked to begin with

[Jeff Chandler]

There was no volcanic gas escaping, it was just the natural cool temperature one finds beneath the surface of the earth.

[SaveFerris]

Saw an article that said aftershocks were coming every 30 secs to 1 minute (this was the next day after the big one).

Don’t know if that’s true.

[dp0622]

Ah.

This city slicker didn’t know that it would be cooler.

Learned something new :)

[mass55th]

Can we line up all the liberals along it, and push them in?

[doorgunner69]

Geez, have they ever looked at the San Andreas? Even after a boat load of weathering, the crack is clear as can be.

Remember driving across the fault south of Palmdale, where it is visible as a rubble zone, wanting to get off it ASAP. Not a crack, but a zone of pulverized rock from all the grinding.

[kaehurowing]

Soon, California may not be part of America.

[Paladin2]

I think that is still true.

I’d like to see a plot of quake event magnitude vs. time.

Then a plot of quake distance from the 7.1 quake vs time.
