3.8 at Mammoth Lakes, California!!! 7.6 to 8.3 Offshore Northern California NEXT???

I know we have been watching California especially for some sign of all that Major Earthquake Energy that is cruising around the Pacific Tectonic Plate right now. Then it occurred to me that I also mentioned the Triple Plate Junction and the Hayward Fault in yesterdays EQ Blog-Check it out in Paragraph 3 @ http://earthquakealert.blogspot.com/2013/10/shakers-at-galapagos-islands-mexico.html And I notice while I was very specific yesterday about watching along the San Andreas Fault along the shores of Frisco and the Hayward Fault, perhaps I should have mentioned Mammoth Lakes because look at all the earthquakes there today!!! Read-Up starting with that 3.8 around noon my time today:

1.7 18km SE of Mammoth Lakes, California 2013-10-21 18:35:32
1.7 18km SE of Mammoth Lakes, California 2013-10-21 15:39:54
1.2 18km SE of Mammoth Lakes, California 2013-10-21 15:39:17
1.2 18km SE of Mammoth Lakes, California 2013-10-21 15:11:56
1.0 18km SE of Mammoth Lakes, California 2013-10-21 13:42:23
1.7 18km SE of Mammoth Lakes, California 2013-10-21 12:07:49
3.1 19km SE of Mammoth Lakes, California 2013-10-21 12:05:11
3.8 18km SE of Mammoth Lakes, California 2013-10-21 12:04:10
1.2 18km SE of Mammoth Lakes, California 2013-10-21 12:03:58
1.1 18km SE of Mammoth Lakes, California 2013-10-21 05:57:15

I actually even removed several smaller ones to keep the list more concise!

I should have also mentioned that this movement of the Pacific Tectonic Plate which started with Mexico this weekend and then Galapagos Island like Saturday, could be ALL of the Major Earthquake energy from Cyclone Phailin and California and our West Coast could be in line for some or possibly even ALL of that 7.6 to 8.3 Richters!!! And note that while Mammoth Lakes DID get all the above shaking today. . . Cascadia remains on that list as well at the Triple Plate Junction! That would mean Eureka, Coos Bay, Mt. St. Helens, Seattle, Vancouver, and Queen Charlotte Island could still get some of this Major Earthquake Energy YET! I suppose same as yesterday when I failed to list Mammoth Lakes. . . we might know we would also need to watch Reno, Nevada, Medford and Portland, Oregon, Snohomish/Nisqualie, and Alaska. We have not heard the last of all this Major Earthquake Energy! It might also be heading for France, Portugal, Italy, and that region.

Finally, Hurricane Francisco is hovering stationary just offshore from Mexico and could cause some shaking there, but I've actually never just watched as a Major Hurricane did this and so we will have to watch and see if Arizona, New Mexico and Texas or Mexico gets any earthquake energy from it and then we will have some idea in the future!
