Category-4 Hurricane Joaquin Landfall At Bahamas COULD Mean Some Earthquake Energy For Our East Coast, Too!!! UPDATE: And NOW "Earthquake Minute"!!!

UPDATE: Here's a LINK to This Weeks AWESOME "Earthquake Minute"!!! SEE It Recorded LIVE at You-Tube@ https://youtu.be/JpkzngFZUMc AND Also now the Transcript, too@ http://t.co/8TviA5MHZ2 Thank-You For Watching!!! NOW Fridays EQ Blog:

With a lot of islands out there in that region of the Atlantic where Hurricane Joaquin is now crossing over, it makes it possible there could now be more Earthquake Energy out there along our East Coast than has been recently and we might now want to expect a possible earthquake of maybe 4 or 5 Richters there!!! Later I also mention Ohio and New Madrid and it is important to remember places such as the Carolina's also get earthquakes and infact Charleston was one of the all time biggest one from the 1800's and there was also just a 2.1 Irving, Texas Earthquake so Texas and Oklahoma could get some of this new upcoming minimal sized Earthquake Energy from now the landfall of CAT-4 Hurricane Joaquin at Bahamas and Turks & Caicos!

I might have already told some of this story in yesterdays EQ Blog and I know I'll be talking about it on "Earthquake Minute" Friday if there is a show, but Hurricane Irene Landfall at Puerto Rico was followed by the 5.8 Richters Earthquake that struck around Richmond, Virginia and wrecked the Washington Monument, Hurricane Isabel's landfall at the Carolinas in 2003 was followed by an 8.3 Japan Earthquake, Landfall of Hurricane Hugo at Charleston was followed by the big San Francisco World Series Earthquake, and landfall of Hurricane Sandy was followed by 6.3 Richters Offshore San Diego therefore even this amount of new Earthquake Energy that already exists due to landfall of CAT-4 Hurricane Joaquin at Bahamas and Turks-Caicos is more or less guaranteed to do something!

Not sure if this here Ohio Earthquake has anything to do with the hurricane, but there was this 2.1 Ohio Earthquake yesterday:
2.1 - 17km WSW of Cadiz, Ohio, 2015-09-30 03:34:54 (UTC) 2015-09-29 22:34:54 Central Time
Nearby Cities
17km (11mi) WSW of Cadiz, Ohio
36km (22mi) SE of New Philadelphia, Ohio
156km (97mi) E of Columbus, Ohio

So, I went and also checked and found this whole entire list of New Madrid Earthquakes as if something might be going on there, too! Not sure, but this could mean something bigger could also now shake that area, too!

2.7 10km SW of Charleston, Missouri 2015-09-29 20:09:46
2.3 9km NW of Tiptonville, Tennessee 2015-09-29 06:44:05
1.2 5km S of Ridgely, Tennessee 2015-09-27 05:45:39
0.9 9km NW of Tiptonville, Tennessee 2015-09-26 14:50:56
1.2 5km NW of Tiptonville, Tennessee 2015-09-26 01:41:12
2.0 6km S of Lilbourn, Missouri 2015-09-25 23:48:19
1.8 9km SW of Caruthersville, Missouri 2015-09-23 22:41:19

These two earthquakes both happened in that region where it's been shaking over by Indonesia and seems to me it makes it possible that could be where they get their next earthquake. . . although I do not know of any current alerts for them, it is always possible they could get major earthquakes! As is the case with the following which coincidentally also struck very near Mt. Krakatu!!!

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1994_Java_earthquake

So, we might need to watch around Indonesia although I do not have any alerts for that region, just that they seem to keep shaking! Will definitely need to watch all the areas along our East Coast and as far as New Madrid and Oklahoma/Texas for some fairly good sized shaking due to the landfall of Hurricane Joaquin at Bahamas and I guarantee there will be some shaking from that one!!! At press time it does not seem to be certain where that hurricane will go from Bahamas, but several of those tracks similar to Hugo, Irene, Isabel, and Sandy are very much still in the cards up that way and those big earthquakes that followed could still very much become realities again if any such landfall should occur!!! Tune in Friday for "Earthquake Minute" for the latest and I'll be back Monday unless something is shaking before then!!! EQ Guy
