The Earthquake Report

Only reporting quakes over richter scale 5


7.0 earthquake this morning, in Northern California. It happened at 10:44 am pst.
Harold Tobin, the director of the Pacific Northwest Seismic Network, said the temblor was a strike-slip earthquake, which means that two plates slid past each other, causing shaking.The quake ruptured in the Mendocino fault zone, at the intersection of three tectonic plates: the Pacific, North American and Juan de Fuca plates.“This is the exact point where the Cascadia Subduction Zone ends to the south and the San Andreas Fault begins,” Tobin said.

A tsunami warning was issued for the coast from Davenport, California, to the border between Douglas and Lane counties in Oregon. The Tsunami Warning Center canceled the warning at about 11:55 a.m. The largest aftershock was 5.8.

So I wonder where the action will be next.

Thanks for the update and for monitoring the situation on the West coast generally.

I would like to encourage everyone who lives in a fault zone area to post their over richter scale 5 earthquakes.

I was at work at the time, but I never felt it here and I live in San Francisco. As I understand it the earthquake took place out in the ocean in very deep water. Which is good. Had it occurred in a shallow part of the ocean it would have been much, much worse. A lot of the earthquake faults seem to converge within that area including the San Andreas Fault. The Alaska Quake of 1964 was a 9.2 The last big quake I was in was Northridge. I was with friends in LA at the time and had to call in to work stating I could not come that day due to the freeways collapse and didn't know at the time when I would be back in San Diego which is where I was living at the time.

I was in the Northridge 6.7 Quake as well. That one hit in an urban area and was violent.

5.3 Earthquake today, off of Ferndale, CA, in the ocean.
Along the same fault line of the earlier 7.0 quake. Pressure being released along the Mendocino fault zone, but may be building up on Cascadia and on the Northern San Andreas.

When something attracts my attention, and when I am aware of that, I attempt to intuitively interpret that something, as deep as I can, then draw guidance. While doing that, I intentionally leave aside all my beliefs and expectation, as well as emotional and intellectual reactions.

From this perspective, I wonder why is your attention attracted by earthquakes.

I believe that we attract in our reality situations, events, people that resonate with our current expectations, focus, emotions. This doesn't mean to try to deny what you feel, what attracts your attention, but to be aware of what you think and to find out why, to interpret it and get guidance, deal with it and leave it behind.

I live in Southern California. Earthquake central. Been though several largeish quakes. Bigist one for me was the 6.7 Northridge quake. So yes, quakes interest me. How they happen, what is going on. The geology behind them. Knowledge is power.

Southern Californians were rattled on Monday morning when a strong earthquake shook the areas around San Diego at 10:08 am.

Initial measurements from the United States Geological Survey rated the temblor as a magnitude 5.2, with an epicenter in Julian, a mountain town in San Diego county with roughly 2,000 residents known for it’s apple pie, located roughly 35 miles north-east of San Diego and 120 miles south of Los Angeles.

I got a quake alert at that time and sat, waiting for something. Didn't feel it. Nothing. My hubby, at work, got a slight rolling sensation.

In San Diego the phone alert was 15 seconds in advance.
