UPDATE: At least 12 earthquakes have struck the Kansas-Oklahoma Region in the last 24 hours and so they have their very own page at Earthquake Central and the 2.8 Mound City, Kansas earthquake was even reportedly felt in Chicago 60620!!! Here's That Brand New Complete list: http://eqalert.blogspot.com/2014/11/kansas-oklahoma-earthquakes-starting.html I want to say look at all of them from today, but since list will be growing you would need to see November 18, 19, 2014 to see them all. NOW Todays EQ Blog:
The Northridge Earthquake was the original day when I decided to start looking into what caused that earthquake especially and among other things it was noticeable that we just so happened to be experiencing the same sort of Severe Winter Conditions as they are currently getting in some places around the country. Further research showed that there were actually quite a lot of what I was then calling "January Earthquakes" due to a lot of them having been in January. Along that lines we are presently getting a lot of those same sort of Severe Winter Conditions that preceded Northridge, so this will now add to the alerts along our West Coast for earthquakes in general and possibly if it continues, a Major Earthquake such as Northridge was.
Some of the other earthquakes that were found to have been preceded by Severe Winter Conditions were the New Madrid Earthquake, and Great Alaska Earthquake. When December of 2003 brought a lot of snow I sent an old E-Mail "EQ Alert" for California and the Paso Robles Earthquake struck December 23, 2003. One of my biggest and best "Severe Winter Conditions" Alerts was when December of 2009 had very severe winter conditions and as a result I wrote and submitted an Official Prediction For California to get a Major Earthquake by January 12, 2010 and you can still view that @ http://www.earthquakealert.blogspot.com/2009/12/official-prediction-california-just.html THAT Official Prediction ended up preceding the 2010 Eureka Earthquake of 7.1 Richters on January 9, 2010!!! On the final day of that O.P. on January 12, 2010 is today the date of the Haiti Earthquake, so add both of those to the above list of earthquakes that were preceded by Severe Winter Conditions and two places we might have to start watching closely for repeats of the same sort of Tectonic Plate Movement that happened in that scenerio where the Eureka Earthquake at the Northwest corner could possibly have shifted the North American Tectonic Plate so that the Southeast corner of the plate shifted and shook HAITI.
So, we also probably won't have to wait so long this year for "January Earthquakes" due to lots of snow AND a lot of Extreme Cold weather occurring right this moment in early November! Haven't had the time to go and check if there have been many Severe Winter Conditions this early in the year and what earthquakes might have followed. This was reported late on Tuesday, "There is a chance the 24-hour United States snowfall record may fall if the snow continues. That official record belongs to Silver Lake, Colorado, with 76 inches, spanning April 14-15, 1921. 5 feet or more of snow will fall this week in some places, 45 inches of snow was dumped around Buffalo New York and they're expecting 70 inches of snow total." That's what we call Severe Winter Conditions so you will be hearing more about all that in this here EQ Blog due to it probably bringing along a Major Earthquake!
That theory in brief states that all the snow once it has fallen subjects the North American Tectonic Plate to "Weight On The Tectonic Plate" and ultimately serves to push down on the plate and pushes out at the Tectonic Plate Boundary. . . or in this case the San Andreas Fault!!! We will see!!! Be Watching and Be Prepared!!! EQ Guy
