During last
week, I read this article/report on the plate movements in the Indian Ocean. It is a very interesting read, and
somewhat concerning.
North
America
I sat jotting
some notes on Friday night on the U.S.
states, and it wasn’t until I re-read such notes that I realized just how much I had written about my
feelings for possible tremors in the United States. So, though this next
list is quite long, some or many of the M’s noted may not occur; I may be wrong
with the regions and/or I may be close with some. My usual reminder – these are just feelings of being drawn to
regions and are not predictions for actual events.
North, Central and Southern California regions will
continue to rumble with M1’s, M2’s and sporadic M3+’s.
Nevada M2’s
and I feel this region may experience another M3+.

(mountains) M2’s and an M2+ (+?).

Carolina east of M3?

Los Angeles (near the Channel Islands National
Park) may feel an M3

Other US states which may feel an M2 or M2+ (if not
already mentioned above) are Wyoming, Idaho, Oklahoma, south
east of Pennsylvania.
“If you imagine an ‘L’ shape, from Washington/Montana, down to
Utah/Arizona – then east across and including states such as Colorado,
Kansas/Oklahoma, Missouri/Arkansas, Kentucky/Tennessee/Mississippi through to
Virginia – there seems to be occurrences of M1’s, M2’s and the occasional M3.
This pattern will probably continue – with the M’s popping up in these states
sporadically” .Louise Page (meJ) 2012

The Indian Ocean ridges and trenches
(central region of the ocean) may have experienced some possible and rather
serious ‘damage’, as per the link to the appropriate article at the beginning
of this main post. Therefore, my feelings are a bit jumbled as to what the
ramifications will be for movements in this ocean and surrounding countries. I am
surmising though that there may possibly be some movement down the east coast
of Africa, incorporating Madagascar, and maybe India and the western land/sea of Australia. But…because I am not a
scientist, I will not propose a definitive ‘statement’ regarding such. If I
discover any further information regarding the article mentioned/linked to
above, I will post such here.

This is another
substantial list again, and I have probably left out a couple of regions.
Again, these
M’s are only feelings and not
predictions. So, I may be quite wrong with some of them and some may not
occur at all, which is what I actually hope for.
I hope for all communities to be safe and peaceful.
