6.2 Iran!!! Lots Of Earthquakes at Incline Village, Nevada, and Again More At Oklahoma!!! LATE Sunday Night a 3.7 Near Big Bear Lake!!!

Just In: 3.7 Richters Near Big Bear Lake, California! FELT REPORT is IN!!! @ http://eqalert.blogspot.com/2014/08/37-big-bear-city-at-1155pm-central-time.html

NOW Todays EQ Blog:
Originally I was awoken at some point by my phone ringing to tell me there was a 3.5 Richters 6.2 Miles North of Incline Village at 2:42am that message came to my phone and caused a lot of concern for me since it sounds like it is exactly along my Amtrak Route up through that Sierras Region! How bad would it be, etc. . . however when I double-checked it first thing on Sunday Morning it was gone with no explanation! Here is the list that has struck up at that basic location since then:

1.2 10km NNW of Incline Village, Nevada 2014-08-17 16:54:34
1.1 10km NNW of Incline Village, Nevada 2014-08-17 16:13:06
1.0 11km NNW of Incline Village, Nevada 2014-08-17 16:04:05
1.6 10km NNW of Incline Village, Nevada 2014-08-17 14:37:35
0.1 3km W of Tahoe Vista, California 2014-08-17 06:21:15
0.9 3km W of Tahoe Vista, California 2014-08-17 06:13:48
1.2 11km NNW of Incline Village, Nevada 2014-08-17 02:36:01
0.2 9km N of Incline Village, Nevada 2014-08-17 01:02:12

Just prior to that one that struck long after I hit the hay for the night, there was another one that caused some concern and so I double-checked the felt report on the 2.6 Berkeley, California Earthquake and came up with a lot of felt reports from Berkeley, and Oakland along with surprisingly Emeryville!!! Here is that list:
http://eqalert.blogspot.com/2014/08/26-richters-strikes-one-mile-southeast.html FELT Reports now coming in from Big Bear City 3.7, and I will have update later in day unless something more major strikes before that.

NOW Onto Oklahoma!!! Right at the moment I have no explanation for all the earthquakes that struck there just in the last 25 hours. I suppose you could say it's rather obvious there is going to be a big one, but the big one we are watching for is like an 8 or 9 Magnitude and one has to hope it doesn't strike at or near Oklahoma! But it looks like it is probably going to! Starting to look like this will now be the next Great New Madrid Earthquake in a matter of time, however impossible to say when exactly that will be, would you just look at the list of earthquakes that struck in the last 24 hours or you could say on Sunday:

3.4 13km S of Boley, Oklahoma 2014-08-17 21:50:09
3.8 13km NE of Cherokee, Oklahoma 2014-08-17 20:25:57
2.6 1km SE of Cherokee, Oklahoma 2014-08-17 11:50:07
3.1 13km WNW of Medford, Oklahoma 2014-08-17 11:35:07
3.4 13km WNW of Medford, Oklahoma 2014-08-17 10:59:05
3.0 4km ESE of Perry, Oklahoma 2014-08-17 08:43:31
2.7 9km WNW of Medford, Oklahoma 2014-08-17 02:28:37
3.5 9km WNW of Medford, Oklahoma 2014-08-17 01:31:10
3.8 9km WNW of Medford, Oklahoma 2014-08-17 01:18:43

Too many to count there, but I did go back and count the total from 7 days and came up with 27!!! Although that does just average out to like 3 a day so I checked and found part of the reason was because I was checking hours after last weekends Full Moon window would have ended and there were like 13 of them that day alone! So it would probably add up to 40 in 7 days if you could add just that one day, but then it would be 8 days, too!

There are still many alerts out for a lot of different parts of the globe. There was also a 6.2 Richters and many aftershocks 300 Miles South of Tehran, Iran near border with Iraq and near oil production there, and while Iran just might have covered at least one of those, let us continue to watch for a MegaThruster because I do not believe 6.2 Iran would quite cover the landfall of Typhoon Ramassun at Philippines so keep watching for something like huge there!!!
