It was one of those nights when the phone rang all through the night with Major Earthquakes. . . but NONE affecting California! Even just this moment as I was about to write it rang one more time with a 5.2 out in the middle of Uganda! I immediately looked up Uganda because I know one of those straight lines intersected some part of Africa, but am not all that familiar with the geographic layout of that country. There was also a 3.4 Dominican Republic, a Major 6.1 that struck 60 or 80 miles from Banda Aceh Indonesia with a 5.3 aftershock as of 8:55am CDT, as well as some other earthquakes in PNG, Iran, Tonga, Marianna Islands, Greece and a 2.5 up in Northern Nevada. Mostly agreeable some of this earthquake energy remains from those two still present Major alerts we have been watching.
As for the alert that has been covering Los Angeles, Mexicali, and Calexico, today is now Day 43 and as some of you know who perhaps watch those dates rather carefully it will be the end of the formal watch like tomorrow. Please note that the watch for Northern California and especially Eureka, but also possibly for San Francisco is only on Day 32 and Day 32 is one of those days, you know! Keep watching that one into next week, but I will keep updating right here in the meantime. I suppose it is possible that enough major shakers over in all of them other countries could put an end to this long stretch of earthquakes. We seem to continue getting them right this moment with my phone even ringing several times with new earthquakes just in the time it has taken me to type out todays EQ Blog! NorCal will run all the way through about July 22, 2013 according to my notes in front of me and while some of the effect of that alert could reach a little ways south, it should not in-and-of-itself affect Los Angeles, but Day 52 for L.A. would not be reaching although it is just a number left in my head from all those years of research and Sandy/San Diego hit Day 42, while Katrina/Islamabad hit Day 43 and something someday could possibly go beyond that, especially with one that is still running for NorCal so keep watching!!!

As I was going out the door: 2.0 Marina Del Rey, 2.3 Idyllwild, and 2.0 Offshore Santa Barbara at 8:04, 8:20, and 8:25am Pacific! Be Prepared! EQ Guy
