April 2013 - Part 2 of 3

April 2013 - part 2 of 3

If there is going to be a larger magnitude quake I get a mild feeling that the regions which may be affected may be towards the Indonesian/Guinea, Japan, Kamchatka, Alaksan Gulf, between Jamica and the British Virgin Islands, along the coast of Central America and Iceland. The Queen Charlotte Island (general region) is also drawing me to it a little.

Now, remember these are not predictions of a global disaster, nor may these areas actually experience larger quakes (at all) or in the month of April.

April 11^th, 12^th and 13^th are numbers/dates which are sticking a little with me at the moment for a larger movement of some kind. Where, I am not sure, but the northern part of the hemisphere is nagging at me more so than the southern.

Let’s hope my feelings are proven wrong (and probably will be). I certainly don’t want communities in these regions to take my feelings as fact and worry.  More than likely these regions will only feel rattles from lesser magnitude quakes/tremors.

The continual beachings and die-offs of sea/water life is very sad to see. The reasons for many of these happenings will be clearer and exposed (hopefully completely) this month. There will be a combination factor of reasons here between natural earthly (quakes, volcanic, water changes – temperature and conditions, electro-magnetic pulse variations etc.) effects and man-made issues.(I won’t go into the politics of that one – don’t do politics ;) friends.

I feel that the coastal regions and tracking inland of California, maybe towards the northern states of the United States (meaning Washington State down) will continue to be rattled by M1's, M2's and M3's. Wyoming and surrounds may experience more of the tremors associated with the Yellowstone National Park, perhaps with an M3(+?) either west of Yellowstone or SW or South of this region. I feel a little that the 'energy' is building there, but please don't think of the movie "2012" when I mention this - I'm not meaning Yellowstone will experience epic movements, just perhaps an increase in the number of tremors and maybe the odd M3(+?).

I also feel that there may be more visual atmospheric/cloud colouring [rainbows - horizontal and vertical] changes/patterns to be observed. To be clearer, what may happen below (earth) may be reflected in some places in the elements of the sky. This may include volcanic ash and some tremendous sunsets in some places. Also more auroras may be seen closer to places which may not usually witness them.

More soon folks ;)

APRIL 2013    

This post is incomplete and was written 2 days ago. We have had a family tragedy, so I will add the rest of this post sometime this week.

Well folks, April of 2013 has begun with some interesting and substantial earthquake movements, particularly along the Ring of Fire.

Particularly notable is the earthquake (M7+) near the border of North Korea/Russia/China. As I felt it would, the movements travelled down the western ‘edge’ of the ROF, through Japan, Taiwan and down to the north of New Zealand.

This was considerable movement.

The M7+ earthquake in Indonesia was situated in a mountain range in Papua, Indonesia, just north of a valley, which runs east/west or west /east, which if one was to draw a lined arrow to the east, the arrow may intersect (approximately) with the volcanoes in the east. There may, of course, be no relationship between Indonesia’s currently active volcanoes and this latest M7+ - this EQ may have been plate related.

Another curious thing about this M7+, is that (as I had noted on another site) the night (Melbourne time) prior to this large quake, I had woken suddenly from my sleep after ‘dreaming’ that there was going to be a potential M7 to M9 north of the Australian mainland within the next 24 hours – I was a little numbed when it did occur. I had told my daughter that morning, prior to the quake, about my dream.

Anyway, for this post, I am going to change the layout of the listing. I am going to head the list with regions I feel may experience M4+ and maybe greater quakes. Then below that, a list of regions which may experience M2 to maybe M3+ quakes. Then below that list, a group of regions which may experience tremors in the lower M ranges.

I get a feeling that April may be a particularly active month for earthquakes. Also, I feel there may be issues with water/sea disturbances associated with several EQ’s.

The sinkhole issues may increase and some regions experiences tremendous problems with them, may see a greater need to move communities permanently to another region.

I feel there may be a major eruption with a volcano, displacing some communities.

Maybe an undersea volcano will become quite a spectacle, and several more (that are forming or brewing) may be noted for naming or inclusion on world maps.

The influence of the solar output and other potential earth influences beyond our planet, on our earthly happenings, are not generally my ‘area’ of focus or study (I have little ‘knowledge in this genre). 

Please remember that any M’s I mention below are just feelings and not actual predictions of potential earthquakes or tremors.

M4 or M4+

Pacific Ring of Fire regions

Guam, Mariana’s, Palau, Fiji, Samoa, Vanuatu, Marshall Islands Federated States of Micronesia, Solomon’s,  Wallis and Fortuna, Kiribati, Easter Island, Galapagos Islands, PNG, West Papua (Indonesia), Japan, Alaska (including along the Aleutian Islands), Canada (in Queen Charlotte Islands region), Taiwan, Central America (Gulf of California, Manzanillo, Oaxaca and  about 3 equally [approx.] spaced places on down the coast to Panama), North America (California regions, San Francisco/Santa Rosa coast and west of Roseburg, west of Eureka and  Washington State). Kamchatka (Russia), Philippines [NE? and SE?], the Moluccas’, Bismarck Sea, Kermadec Islands (NZ), New Zealand Sth. Island (east), New Zealand North Island (NE and NW).

I will add to this post, the rest of my list, when I get a chance this week.

Earthquakes and volcanic activity 8^th and 9^th of January 2013

The activity surrounding the Mediterranean Sea/western Turkey, namely involving the Aegean Sea (the Aegean I didn’t specify) has been a focus of my ‘feelings’ in the last couple of days. I mentioned these general regions in my last post as being potential ‘areas’ for larger activity.  

There have been numerous tremors in the region of the Aegean Sea and some movement near Rhodes. If you imagine a line from eastern Turkey, sweeping down to Rhodes (regions), up and through to Aegean (waters wise), then along through southern Greece; through southern Italy to northern regions, and across to France and down to Spain – I have felt an ‘energy’ running through this uneven’ line’. A niggling possible predominant reason for this ‘energy’ may be volcanic activity.

Underwater volcanic vents have presented themselves below Turkey. A number of Italy’s volcanoes are showing renewed or increased ‘life’ and other volcanic related activity is being noted, along with plate/trench activity. And as I have been mentioning persistently in my recent/current posts, ‘water’ is becoming a regular feature (location) for many earthquakes.

I feel that the Myanmar, Indian Ocean and Nepalese earthquakes today are related. There may be other ‘movements’ in the Arabian Sea, near the Gulf of Aden and the Gulf of Oman. The Andaman Sea and the western coast of Sumatra may experience some movement too. This movement may also translate to near the western coast of Australia.

The Alaskan (including the Aleutians) may continue to show some considerable movement through January.

The west coast of America may experience a larger movement too. This may be off the coast of Washington/border with Canada; or west of Eureka or San Francisco. Baja, California may also experience another larger movement too.

I am still being drawn to the region in Russia, near the lake/large waterway, east of Irkutsk (which is above the north/central Mongolian border with Russia).

This post is in addition to the post prior to this.  

All of the above is only my non-scientific opinion/feeling and is obviously open to correction by those with the understanding of the earth sciences I don’t pertain.

Peace to all.

Earthquakes for January 2013     

This list completed at 12.30pm, Friday, 4 January 2013, Melbourne, Australia time.

In this EQ post, I will only (mostly) be concentrating on regions which I feel may come up with the larger movements. I won’t be listing all of the smaller ones I have in the past posts.

As always, I mention that I can be wrong with my feelings, right and/or miss a region altogether.

General note: I feel that water will still be a feature in many movements this month. If not this month, maybe in the first few months of 2013 (Jan., Feb., March) water/sea may present as an issue for some regions.

Rivers and lakes may continue or newly present with issues of, for example, discoloration (volcanic, pollution, oil); the loss of one or more lakes; another (or more) will rise in height; some rivers/waterways may break their banks and another or some may lose their height/volume; one (or more) may be ‘ringed’ with some dead fish/other; some new species may be discovered in one; gases and/or oils may continue or newly present as a problem in some ‘water’ sources/ways – this may contaminate a domestic supply.

Water (in 2013) may become a precious commodity for (not only already known areas) some regions which may never have anticipated such a problem. There may be challenges resolving such or for communities to be clear as to why this has occurred – answers.

RING OF FIRE

I think I am probably stating the obvious here, when I feel the Ring of Fire is going to continue to be active for the month of January.

But I get a gut feeling that an (or more) earthquake of a substantial magnitude may occur this month in this region. (Though I also feel that the end of February, leading into March may be a time when some significant movement in a couple of regions (or more) may be the larger movements many are anticipating).

The regions which may feel such movement, may be the Japanese coastline, Gulf of Alaska, South America (region/s from Santiago, Chile, up to the northern coast – Columbia), Indonesia (north of Australia). Between the lands of the Kuril Islands and the Kamchatka Peninsula (Russia) may be another region/s, along with where the plates ‘meet’ above New Guinea and across to the Pacific Islands (e.g. near Tonga/Fiji/American Samoa), then down to New Zealand.

I feel that the ‘recent’ movement surrounding Japan is an ongoing concern. I get a mild feeling that Japan may experience a quake larger than the M5’s they are continuing to have.

WORLD

Australia - ?SE Victoria, west coast of WA (central/northish)

The U.S. west coastline, will continue to rumble with M1’s, 2’s and M2+’s (+?). Baja, California may feel another M4+(?), as may Los Angeles/San Diego region.  Offshore Washington may feel an M4+. West of Eureka maybe an M4(+?).  San Francisco is ‘niggling’ at me for an M3(++?). But this could be a movement a bit further north, up the coast – west of Oregon (or both).

The western states, e.g. Nevada and northern(?) Utah may continue to rumble, but I feel there could be a movement of perhaps M3+(+?) close to this region.
January 24th 2013, M4.4 Colorado/Utah border (shallow)

The odd rumble may pop up in the southern states (west to east). Oklahoma may feel an M3+.

The U.S. eastern states, I am still being drawn to the region between Florida and Virginia for maybe an M3+(+?)

Central America – Mexico & central to lower Central American coast

China (west, south-central, west and south/east). (Taiwan)

Russia (west, south/west, far east/south east, Kamchatka, north in seas)

Middle East (Afghanistan, lower Kazakhstan, upper/central Pakistan, northern + south/west Iraq, Iran/Iraq border, Turkey). (Kyrgyzstan)

Mediterranean regions (Greece - southern, Crete, s/w Turkey, Italy north and south)

France/Spain (s/w Spain – Gibraltar and/or Canary Islands), (France? - maybe water/coast or mountain/water?)

Canada – Yukon region and Queen Charlotte Islands. Maybe border with Alaska (near Gulf)
                * M7.7 near border of Alaska & Canada (at sea) 5th January

Greenland, Iceland and maybe the Jan Meyen Islands

Africa – Algeria north, Tanzania/DR Congo, (Madagascar)

SEAS

Mediterranean, Caspian, Greenland, Atlantic (Mid, southern and north), Pacific (south), South China, Indian Ocean (central and north), seas above Antarctica (below Sth America and New Zealand, Sulu/Celebes and neighboring seas, ?Black, Banda, Java, Coral, Bismarck, Laptev and/or Eats Siberian Sea, Sea of Japan, Sea of Okhotsk. 

Some volcanic lakes will change colour due to changing ‘elements’ entering them.

Some lakes may also change colour due to increased elements/lack of balance/lack of water volume.

Volcanic concerns may focus on Indonesia, New Zealand, Russia, Japan, Ecuador, Vanuatu, Italy, ?Antarctica and ?Heard Island (Australia).

*New and more undersea volcanic cones and vents may be observed, some perhaps in not otherwise known positions/locations.*Since I uploaded this post - this report has been put on the net.

On land, more smoke and steam vents may be noticed in areas least expected or typically found in.

A tsunami (size – not sure, but may be enough to be damaging to an immediate coast line) may affect an island/coastal community. **(Alaska and Hawaii 5th January)

A mountain face (maybe snow, rocks, pyroclastic flow or other) may become an issue for a low-lying community. * Landslide in China Jan11 2013 (mountains)
** 21st January 2013 New Zealand - massive rockfall in snow/mountains just misses hikers

I hope for peace and safety for all.
