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.
