June 2013 - Part 1 of 3

My general feeling for June is that water/sea may be a feature of one or more events on the earthquake and possibly the volcanic front.

Regarding EQ’s, I get a feeling that there may be an EQ event which could spark a water level disturbance ( what may be termed as a tsunami – from potential mild land inundation to maybe a more serious issue – not sure about the degree though).  The regions which, at the moment of typing this post, I am somewhat drawn to are the Atlantic region – maybe more towards the northern reaches to the mid-Atlantic regions. Another maybe the northern reaches of the Pacific Ocean to the NE regions and/or the NW regions. Hawaii may experience some water level disturbances and some stronger currents sweeping around the islands. This may not be major.

Australia may experience high tides in some places and possibly a mild impact from sea level rise disturbance from an offshore (sea or other country’s) plate shift occurrence. This may sweep down a considerable stretch of Australian coastline. This may only be a situation which causes beach erosion or a king tide kind of situation. Again, as with Hawaii, water currents may be stronger than usual.

Similarly, there may be a disturbance emanating from the Indian Ocean and/or possibly from the south of the Australian mainland, above Antarctica.

More meteorites may be observed, with possibly some sort of an earth impact by one or two – not meaning disaster, but more of a spectacle or even a sonic boom produced by one or two.

Regarding volcanoes, several may become an issue for their local communities, maybe disturbing air traffic. Lava flows, pyroclastic and rock flows may be an issue for one or two. The tremors emanating from one or two may cause infrastructure problems – maybe some tunnels, roads etc..

An undersea volcano or two may become more active and may cause pumice to rise to the sea surface, indicating such movements.

A volcano, slightly offshore from a mainland may be red-zoned, with tourism ceased for this region. An inland volcano, maybe in the Mediterranean and/or Asia may become a problem for communities nearby, also ceasing tourism temporarily and displacing some.

UNITED STATES

The California coastline may continue to experience M1, M2 and M3+’s. I have been ‘watching’ this region and commenting on such on Weatherzone. I mentioned the LA down to San Diego regions may come up with a moderate quake (M5’ish) and unfortunately it did. This region, down to Baja and back up to near the Oregon border may experience another moderate tremor in June. It seems that the plates in these regions are moving/grinding in a moderately active way. Which is not uncommon for them to do, but I feel a grind and ‘pull’ maybe occurring currently, which could give rise to the further movements I am talking about here.

The region from Nevada, including the Yellowstone and other national park regions may continue (again not unusual) to experience M1’s, M2’s and maybe an M3+. Yellowstone is drawing me to it a little and/or the western side of it for maybe an M3+(?).

Inland US – the states which currently draw me to them for potential M1’s, M2’s and/or M3 maybe S/W Arizona, Arkansas, Oklahoma, Nevada (including near Las Vegas), Tennessee, Washington, Texas, Western Montana, Idaho, Missouri and Pennsylvania. Rhode Island included.

For some reason I am also stuck on the word “Fort”. This is resonating with me for a mild tremor, as is the word “Atlanta” (“Atlantas” is the actual word which is stuck with me atm).

Louisiana and up the Mississippi River is drawing me to it for some reason – maybe a river related issue.

New York (state)/Vermont/Maine regions are also drawing me to them – maybe just a mild tremor.

Weather emanating from the Atlantic may become an issue for the eastern states coastlines.

AUSTRALIA

Koorda in Western Australia has been enduring an earthquake cluster recently, mainly M1’s, M2’s and an M3 till now. This may be a prelude to a larger tremor or the smaller tremors may have been ‘for’ and ‘after’ shocks from the M3.

Western Australia, Northern Territory, Tasmania, Canberra, New South Wales and South Australia may all come up with more small tremors. SA, WA and possibly Victoria may come up with a moderate tremor (M3+?).

Queensland has experienced a tremor recently, near Brisbane, and I feel that they may feel another in June.

I am still feeling an energy emanating from the ocean, south of the Australian mainland and from the Indian Ocean. This may just be related to plate movement and I also feel that there is some sort of energy running through the southern states from E/SE to west, and from south to north. I have a theory as to what this may be and have written these private thoughts in an email to self early in May. It will only be made public if such eventuates and/or my feelings are confirmed. I would like to run this feeling/theory by a professional in this area (seismologist for example)  P.s. This is not a disaster scenario and no conspiracy theory here ;).

There are what I term ‘pulses’ (blocks of) running through some of our southern seismo’s here and there. This may be normal intermittent activity, as our living planet is not a static entity. This behaviour can be seen on occasions in other seismo’s in other world places.

Please remember, all of what I say in my posts are just feelings, they are not based on scientific knowledge – I am an amateur and could be very wrong in what I write in this blog.

Parts 2/3 and 3/3 will be posted here very soon.

Peace to all.

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 ;)

February 2013

Remember – the notes below are just feelings, not exact predictions of definite events.

This is an extensive list and will cover the whole of February and the last couple of days of January. I will add to this list if I get any other feelings for other locations BEFORE tremors occur.

I am not sure what effect the passing of the asteroid, on February 15^th, will have on any tremors, as this is beyond my understanding/knowledge.

This list will be added to, with other regions, a.s.a.p..

COUNTRIES

AUSTRALIA

Victoria – S/E M2(++?), far N/E M2(++?)

    - mild feeling  region starting with ‘B’ (Ballarat?, Bendigo?, Bairnsdale? Beechworth?)    M2+?

   - S/E of Lakes Entrance, in the Tasman Sea M2+(+?)

Tasmania – N/E and maybe N/W coast + west of King Island M2(++?) + far west of Tassie (below the Great Australian Bight/below SA & WA border) M3+(+?) + maybe the SW of the coast of Tassie.

New South Wales/Canberra – mild feeling for near Newcastle region M2(+?) + Canberra region M2(+?) + maybe north of Broken Hill M2 (+?)

South Australia - ?Lake Gardner National Park region (NW of Port Augusta) M2(+?) + maybe between Victor Harbor and Elizabeth (Adelaide is in the middle) M2(+?) + maybe north of the Nullarbor M2(+?) + maybe NW of the Witjira National Park (border with NT) M2(+?)

Queensland – maybe between Dalby and Brisbane M2(+?) + maybe (very mild feeling) east or NE of Mackay (sea/coast), this maybe east of Cairns? M2(+?)

Northern Territory – SW of Alice Springs M2(+?) + border with SA (central) M2(+?) + near Tarrabool Lake (ENE of central NT) M2(?) + maybe NW or N of Darwin M2(+?)(possibly off coast)

Western Australia – maybe SW or west of Margaret River (coast or off coast) M2(+?) + maybe west of Perth (coast or off coast) M2(+?) + (inland) east, NE and SE of Perth M2(?) + Lake Nabberu region (west of the Gibson Desert Nature Reserve) M2(?) + also maybe west of Carnarvon and Exmouth (offshore – Indian Ocean)

MACQUARIE ISLAND  maybe an M3+(?)

ANTARCTICA – see the co-ordinates I have noted at the end of this post.

NEW ZEALAND

North Island – Whangarei, Auckland, Tampo, Tauranga (east of), Rotorua, north of Gisborne (up coast), New Plymouth, way north of Whakatane (at sea), Great Island region (offshore of far NW tip of the Nth. Island), Palmeston North, south of Wellington (at sea), White Island.

***All of the above regions (on OR near to them) may feel tremors varying from M2 to M2+(+?). But some may only feel a mild tremor.  Only a couple of the regions may feel larger tremors.

South Island – west of Auckland Island M3(?) This island is south of the Sth. Island.

Christchurch may feel a few rumbles, maybe from M2 to maybe an M3(+?)

South west of the SW point of the South Island (offshore) may feel an M2+(+?)

CANADA – Vancouver region may feel an M2, and maybe an M3+(+?) + maybe south of Victoria (perhaps near the waterway) M2(++?)

British Columbia – north/central, towards border with NWT’s M2+(+?)

Alberta, near Calgary? M2(?) + maybe northern Saskatchewan + maybe lower Ontario/Quebec.

Near or WSW of Rimouski  (waterway) + Gulf of St. Lawrence  M3?

I am being drawn to the North Western Passages/top of Hudson Bay maybe an M3(+)?

ALASKA and the ALEUTIAN ISLANDS – the Gulf of Alaska is sticking with me for maybe an M3(+?).

There may be further tremors travelling north inland M2’s, ?M3 and maybe an M2+ further north again towards the top coast. Along the Aleutians maybe M2’s, M3 and maybe an M3+(+?). Towards the western ‘end’, maybe an M3+(+?).

NORTH AMERICA –

Washington – near Seattle and the NW coast, maybe M2+ and/or M3(+?)

Oregon – west of Portland, near Bend, near Klamath Falls, west of Roseburg (off shore), near border with Idaho.

California – west of Eureka, San Francisco, near Redding, Salinas/Santa Cruz, near Fresno, Ridgecrest, Bakersfield, Yucca Valley, El Centro, Santa Rosa, Salton Sea, Yosemite and Kings Canyon NP’s, Los Angeles/Thousand Oaks, Riverside (east of LA), Red Bluff, Fort Bragg and Grants Pass. These regions and surrounds may feel M2’s, M3’s and M3+(+?) perhaps in the regions highlighted in green.  The regions with ‘Santa’ and/or ‘San’ in their names are sticking with me a little as maybe ‘problem’ areas.

Nevada seems (in my non-scientific and unresearched opinion/feeling) to rumbling quite consistently with smaller tremors. My feeling is tending towards this area being one in which ‘energy’ is passing through – if that makes sense. Maybe it is on the eastern edge of where, if a larger quake was to occur, it could be on the western, NW and/or SW of this state.  Though, people from Nevada may know more about the reason for their tremors than me.

I also feel that ‘energies’ (tremors) may pop up in more of the states heading east in February, maybe even sweeping up along the east coast to Maine. A couple of tremors may pop up as ‘surprise’ movements in a couple of the states more central to North America. As I have been gradually piecing this post together, a couple of the eastern states have experienced tremors.

Reno (Nevada), Nevada – central, north and south maybe an M2, odd M3 and maybe an M3+? To the west?

Utah, SW, SE and N, Idaho, NE of Twin Falls, Arizona, N, SW, New Mexico, N, Colorado, S, W, Kansas, S, E, Oklahoma, S, Texas, Fort Worth, NE, E, Montana/Idaho border, Arkansas/Mississippi border, Tennessee, W, E, Louisiana, associated with Bayou Corne sinkhole, Missouri, S, Pennsylvania, E, New Jersey/New York, Virginia, E, Maine, S

The above US states/regions may only be M2’s and/or M2+’s, with a couple of M3+(+?)’s.  I get a mild feeling that an eastern US region may come up with an M4+?

CENTRAL AMERICA

The Gulf of California (top end and near lower end, and west of the ‘peninsula’) may come up with perhaps M3++(?)’s again.

Mexico – Guadalajara, Mexico City, west of Manzanillo,  south of Oaxaca.

And down the west coast of the rest of Central America, maybe M3+(+?)’s. Including Panama.

SOUTH AMERICA

Including Easter Island and the Galapagos Islands, maybe M3+(+?)’s

Venezuela, central/west Colombia, Ecuador, Peru, Bolivia, Chile, Argentina, Belize (M2?), Trinidad and Tobago, Rio Grande do Norte may come up with moderate quakes. There may be a larger quake on the west coast, maybe along the northern and central west coast.

HAWAII – will continue to experience sporadic M1’s, M2’s and maybe an M3+?

Water disturbances (levels) may be an issue on one or two occasions. This may emanate from the west and NE.

PACIFIC ISLANDS – Many of the Pacific Islands may continue to experience sporadic and the odd ‘clusters’ of M3+(+?)’s. The Kermadec Islands are seemingly constantly rumbling and may continue to do so (according to a seismograph in this region).

Fiji, Tonga, Samoa, Vanuatu, near New Caledonia, Wallis and Futuna, and surrounding islands, may experience the larger tremors on or near their lands. I get a feeling that there may be some issue with sea level/disturbance involving one or more of the islands closer to the centre of the Pacific. I feel that somewhere in the western side of the Pacific, that an underwater volcano mound may become more evident. This may also include and island (not inhabited) in the southern regions of the Pacific may become ‘active’ or show ‘movements’ of becoming volcanic/life soon. The White Island volcano may experienced increasingly heightened activity.

CHINA – far western, NW, central south, SW, NE, SE near Taiwan, and maybe towards Beijing (general wide area/region) may experience tremors from M2 to M3+(+?).

The border of China and Vietnam is sticking with me a little for maybe an M3+(+?).
 

JAPAN – Movements of M3+(?) may continue to occur for the east of Honshu, Fukushima, Tokyo, Sendai, Morioka and particularly Hokkaido.

Of the southern end of Japan, Kagoshima (maybe near the East China Sea) and on/near the west coast, Sea of Japan, maybe near Kanazawa, may experience an M3(+?).

Mount Fuji may continue to be active and cause ground movements. This volcano may become problematic for nearby regions and air traffic. Water/streams/small rivers may be noticeably affected (current or direction of flow???).

VIETNAM – I am being drawn to the border of Vietnam and China, M2+(+?).

?The border region of Cambodia and Vietnam (towards the south) maybe M2+(+?)

LAOS – near the border with northern Vietnam is sticking with me a little, M2+(+?).

KOREA – north east of South Korea (Sea of Japan, coast or near coast), maybe M2+(+?)

THAILAND – This may mean nothing at all, i.e. no event, but the Gulf of Thailand is drawing me to it for some reason.

The mainland of Thailand maybe an M2+(+?), near the centre, M2+(+?).

PHILIPPINES – east of Davao, east of Samar Island, south east of Virac/north of Catarman, way east of Suriago City, regions of Mindanao, east of Mati and on the western side – off coast in the Sulu Sea and South China Sea, maybe M2+(+?)’s.

Palau (island in the Pacific, east of Philippines) maybe an M2+(+?)

INDONESIA – west Papua, the Moluccas, central Salawesi, south of Bali, south of East Java, south of East Timor (Timor Sea), the Banda Sea, south of Bandung are sticking with me for maybe movement in the region of M2+(++?).
Sumatra, from the west coast and traveling east along the coast, may experience another couple of M4(+?)'s again, off coast.
