Exact Moment of the Full Moon/Supermoon Will Be January 1 at 8:25pm Central Time, and 6:25pm Pacific, so the Full Moon Window will actually begin Sunday, December 31 at 8pm Central, 6pm Pacific and also part of the reason I thought time to publish this special edition of my EQ Blog. . . but don't get me wrong plenty of other stuff that can be considered worthwhile shaking today!!!

THIS isn't the first earthquake of the New Year 2018, but a great one to represent about the last of them from 2017!!! Check out the list of Nearby Places there:

1.5 - 9km WNW of San Francisco Zoo, CA

Nearby Places:

The biggest earthquakes of the year 2017 started out with that 8.2 Richters Mexico Earthquake of September 8 which of course immediately followed the huge landfall of Hurricane Irma at Barbuda on September 2! Although the 8.2 wasn't the Big Mexico Earthquake that did all the damage, the 7.1 very near Mexico City on September 19 with 370 dead was. Among my favorites was the Ireland, Scotland, Norway shakers that all followed the landfall of Hurricane Ophelia there in Mid-October. And finally it was all that movement of the tectonic plates that preceded the big actually a series of earthquakes at Iran also the most deadly of the year at 630 dead and 7.3 on the Richters Scale!!!

Now with the earthquakes showing some signs of maybe an earthquake to speak of over the New Years Holiday, let's continue to hope and wish everybody Happy New Years!!! Then, I'll be here next year to keep everybody up to date on everything that's shaking!!!

TWO Good Sized Earthquakes Northern California, And Oklahoma, Came In Right At Press Time Thursday Night!!! 5.7 and Others There at The Philippines!!! Going To Say They're Connected To The Landfall of Typhoon Temblin There Recently!!

Two Big Ones Came in right at press time late Thursday and here's all the info!!! The Oklahoma Earthquake looks to have been a 4.1 and the felt reports continue to come in from this one that shook at around 10:45pm my time. . . the other just rang my phone at 10:48pm and looks like these two must have struck close to each other time wise!!! Here's a look at the two side-by-side:

3.8 Richters, 38.5 Miles SSW of Eureka, California, 2017-12-29 04:45:42 UTC
4.1 Richters, 47.6 Miles NW of Oklahoma City, 2017-12-29 04:45:00 UTC

These are the ones at Oklahoma surrounding that 4.1, but really big news is the 4.1 Oklahoma Earthquake must have struck about FORTY-FIVE SECONDS, before that NorCal Shaker!!!!!

2.5 21km ENE of Hennessey, Oklahoma 2017-12-29 05:21
4.1 20km ENE of Hennessey, Oklahoma 2017-12-29 04:45
3.8 6km ESE of McLoud, Oklahoma 2017-12-28 20:11

I'm going to say these Philippines Earthquakes are probably directly related to that recent landfall of Typhoon Temblin there AT the Philippines. . . and probably should keep a watch for more there and possibly for something just a little bigger, yet, since wind gusts had been reported at 110 miles per hour in that region:

5.7 221km SE of Sarangani, Philippines 2017-12-28 17:20
4.5 104km ESE of Sarangani, Philippines 2017-12-27 23:34

Here's the felt report from the 4.0/3.9 Northeast of San Jose Yesterday: http://earthquakealert.blogspot.com/2017/12/felt-report-this-40-richters-northeast.html Currently now over 9000 Responses, prior to that felt report being posted: 008650

Coincidentally there was ALSO one Peru Earthquake that I had promised to report. . . that was when I noticed first this whole entire list building from that region and could mean something!!! Especially as we await possible next big one down there:

4.8 Off the coast of Central America 2017-12-27 09:11
4.2 89km N of Calca, Peru 2017-12-27 06:49:07
4.1 18km S of Huacho, Peru 2017-12-24 20:17:12
5.0 62km NNW of Puquio, Peru 2017-12-24 13:33:20
4.6 30km SE of Catacaos, Peru 2017-12-21 21:57:04
4.6 5km SW of Andalucia, Colombia 2017-12-21 13:26

Here's that pic with the STAR marking the 5.0 Southwest of Cusco, Peru where I said 100 miles southwest of Custo, Peru, too!!! Check It Out:

HERE'S A STORY: Indonesia's Sinabung volcano erupts again!!! JAKARTA - Indonesia's Sinabung volcano in northern Sumatra province erupted again on Wednesday (Dec 27), sending hot clouds into the sky. The eruption occurred at 3.36pm local time, the country's disaster management agency (BNPB) spokesman Sutopo Purwo Nugroho said in an update on his Twitter account. The eruption sent black gray volcanic ash up into the sky as high as 3,500m towards the east and south-east and 4,600m in the south and south-east direction. NOTE: Sorry a lot of links don't work on my blog, and so THAT was cut and pasted here from somewhere!!! Thank-You!!!

Here's a few Los Angeles earthquakes, albeit small ones, now updated:

1.6 2km SW of Gardena, CA 2017-12-28 18:01
2.1 1km ENE of Baldwin Park, CA 2017-12-28 17:36
1.8 6km SW of Santa Monica, CA 2017-12-27 19:13
2.0 6km SE of Simi Valley, CA 2017-12-27 15:19
1.1 14km WSW of Lake Hughes, CA 2017-12-27 11:21
1.9 1km SW of Culver City, CA 2017-12-27 10:01
1.6 8km S of Laguna Beach, CA 2017-12-26 18:58

Up to the point where I began this edition, I wasn't sure what to do, but there it is, everybody!!! Unless somethhing more shakes in the coming hours LAST Edition of my EQ Blog for the year 2017!!! It certainly has been a great year for earthquakes, too!!! Some big ones struck. . . and I'll try to have more about that in my upcoming very first EQ Blogs for the year 2018!!! Happy New Years, Everybody!!!

TRANSCRIPT: Happy New Years "Pacifica Earthquake Minute" on December 27, 2017, Transcript:

Hi, EQ Guy Here, it's starting to look like the landfall of Typhoon Temblin at the Makong Delta of Vietnam with winds of 85 and gusts of 110 and also an earlier landfall at the Philippines may now be responsible for a 5.0 Richters Philippines Earthquake, also might have been responsible for the 3.9 Richters Northeast of San Jose Late Tuesday Night!!!

Peru is getting a lot of earthquakes and no more than did I say 100 miles southwest of Cusco, Peru, and one hit there. . . 150 miles southwest of Cusco, Peru. KEEP watching Peru, that alert runs into early January.
Still a few earthquakes out there, keep watching, watch California and Here's wishing everybody all the best in the New Year 2018!!!

3.9 Richters Earthquake Just Struck Near San Jose at San Francisco Bay Area There!!! Felt Reports Are Currently Over 7000!!! Landfall of Typhoon Temblin at Makong Delta COULD Have Something To Do With All The Shaking!! Watch For More!!!

Since this earthquake happened actually AFTER my usual "Press Time" methinks I'll have all the felt report information tomorrow since it's still just coming in and started out at around 6000 before I even got to it on the web, with my phone actually ringing hardly a few minutes after it must have shook about 12:15am Central Time or why so many reports are coming in, it was around 10:15pm there!!! So, one more time: This was originally a 4.0 that was downgraded to either a 3.8 or 3.9 but two places have said 3.9 and felt reports so far include Pebble Beach, just about everybody in San Jose, one or two so far from Hayward, California where I expect more, Redwood City, Menlo Park, and Belvidere-Tiburon, but I'm quite sure there's plenty more to come with total currently at 7500 as this edition goes to press right now!!!

I will just leave the list of nearby places like they are here in this USGS Report, but be aware the two measurements off San Jose, and Milpitas are also rough measurements of about how far this epicenter is from San Francisco and Oakland, too:

3.9 - 8km ENE of Alum Rock, CA
2017-12-27 06:32:09 UTC 37.400°N 121.745°W 9.0 km depth

Nearby Places:
5.0 Miles ENE of Alum Rock, California
9.3 Miles ESE of Milpitas, California
9.3 Miles ENE of San Jose, California
12.4 Miles ENE of Santa Clara, California
15.5 mi) East of Sunnyvale, California

Briefly mentioned yesterday, now here's the USGS Report on that Catalina Island Region 2.1:

2.1 - 86km SW of Avalon, California
2017-12-26 02:42:06 UTC

Nearby Places:
28 Miles SW of San Clemente Is., CA
37.3 Miles West of San Clemente Is., CA
42.9 Miles SE of San Nicolas Is., CA
47.2 Miles South of Santa Barbara Is., CA
54.1 Miles SW of Avalon, CA

Unless something bigger shakes, well even so. . . this one will (Still) be a fairly large one mostly because the name is Malibu:

1.8 - 14km S of Malibu Beach, CA
2017-12-25 19:44:09 UTC 3.0 km depth

Nearby Places:
8.7 Miles South of Malibu Beach, CA
9.3 Miles SE of Malibu, CA
9.9 Miles SSW of Las Flores, CA
14.3 Miles SSW of Topanga, CA
14.9 mi) WSW of Santa Monica, CA

Here's the latest there:

1.1 2km E of Granada Hills, CA 2017-12-26 08:13
1.8 8km E of Santa Clarita, CA 2017-12-26 02:42
1.8 14km S of Malibu Beach, CA 2017-12-25 19:44

There are one or two major potential sources for some more shaking, and the main one right at the moment is the fact that Typhoon Temblin just made landfall at Philippines, and then Makong Delta in recent days and that 5.0 immediately shook Philippines right there in the path of it!!! So, let us hope we are not right now looking at anything much bigger than that one was or about a 5.0 and that's all, too!!! I'll have more about this one in next EQ Blog!!! Keep Watching, There!!!

I'm going to save the story about there was also a 5.0 Peru Earthquake, too, save that until my next Edition due to it also having a GREAT Pic that goes along with it and I don't wish to post TWO Great Pics in one Edition because just one alone tends to become the default pic for todays blog and not telling how it will work with two, so this edition goes to press!!! Here's hoping everybody had a Great Christmas!!!!!

TRANSCRIPT: Happy Holidays "Earthquake Minute" From Local Community Radio Station on December 22, 2017, Transcript:

Hi, EQ Guy Here. . .MY PHONE Rang yesterday, of course that can only mean a BIG Earthquake. . . Because my girlfriend hasn’t called me lately, ANYWAYZ. . . So I automatically assumed it would be that BIG Earthquake we’re still waiting for at Peru, and while it was actually something else like a 5.7 Japan where they’re also currently shaking, BUT a reminder Peru could still be a Big Earthquake and Day 50 will be December 25th there!!! Remembering the big 7.8 Ecuador Earthquake we also waited some time for, stuck on Day FIFTY-FIVE!!!!!

So, let us please keep watching Peru, because they get earthquakes, there, and as a precaution Day 60 will be January 4, 2018 there!!!!!
AND if you haven’t heard. . . I’ll be doing my very first ever “Substitute DJ ing” Job TONIGHT!!!

I'm now editing this today after the fact that my big "Substitute Disc Jockey" job went GREAT!!! I was on-the-air late Friday Night Central Time, or actually very early Saturday, but had a Great Time, too!!!!! Might check it out at the archives@ https://www.wortfm.org/ where it will be under "Music Shop" for Saturday, December 23, 2017 for like a week or two beyond the date of this post in the ARCHIVES there, that is. I know I'm listening there right this minute as I'm writing this and might make a CD out of the whole 2 hour show!!!

I'll be back on here some day or sooner if something shakes, until then watch Canada, Haiti, Indonesia, Japan, and Peru because there are still them alerts, but shouldn't be much bigger than a 5 or 6 and I suppose it's Christmas in those places, too, so here's wishing Everybody a Merry Christmas!!!

4.9 Richters Earthquake Struck Just a Few Miles West of Tehran, Iran!!! Huge Felt Report From That Region Including Many From Tehran, Along With Some From Dubai, and Afghanistan!!!

At press time in came a 2.3 Vermont, and a 5.0 struck 75 Miles Southwest of Oaxca, Mexico and I'll try to have more on both of those tomorrow, right now here's Thursdays Edition of my EQ Blog:

Here's sort of a big one that struck just about only 15 miles west of Tehran, Iran on Wednesday!!! Hundreds of felt reports from Tehran and mind you these are ones submitted to our own USGS here in the states!!! Means pretty much everybody had to have felt this 4.9 very near the center of that city!!! Here's probably a somewhat abbreviated felt report and in the interest of space I'll leave out a lot of the towns with just one report because probably everybody felt it there, you know:

Here's the continuation of all that shaking at Oklahoma from yesterday and possibly the day before and looking to be about the most shaking they've had there in quite some time, too:

3.4 8km SW of Langston, Oklahoma 2017-12-20 22:22
2.3 7km SSW of Langston, Oklahoma 2017-12-20 21:45

2.2 19km ENE of Hennessey, Oklahoma 2017-12-19 11:22:39
2.5 20km ENE of Hennessey, Oklahoma 2017-12-19 11:22:19
3.0 20km ENE of Hennessey, Oklahoma 2017-12-19 10:57:27
2.1 22km E of Hennessey, Oklahoma 2017-12-19 10:21:31
3.0 20km ENE of Hennessey, Oklahoma 2017-12-19 09:47:47
2.8 24km ENE of Mooreland, Oklahoma 2017-12-19 08:47:43
2.8 14km E of Ninnekah, Oklahoma 2017-12-19 08:33:04
4.0 29km ENE of Mooreland, Oklahoma 2017-12-19 05:26:19

And that was when I discovered there continues to be a lot of shaking like this here around Southern California, too, now starting to be just a little beyond the New Moon, too:

2.8 28km N of Kernville, CA 2017-12-20 00:59
1.8 7km WNW of Paso Robles, CA 2017-12-19 22:48
1.4 16km NW of Parkfield, CA 2017-12-19 21:40
2.0 11km SW of Lake Hughes, CA 2017-12-19 19:32
1.4 13km SE of Tehachapi, CA 2017-12-19 16:04:51
1.7 7km SSW of Mojave, CA 2017-12-19 14:05:15
1.3 2km N of Universal City, CA 2017-12-19 09:28
1.9 20km NW of Parkfield, CA 2017-12-19 08:17:17
1.3 6km NW of Parkfield, CA 2017-12-19 02:43:37

Then there was a lot of shaking at Japan, although not that big of ones out there, here's the big list I was talking about and hopefully that very biggest one coming is 6.4 or 6.5 and that should go for the Japan Region, too:

5.1 98km E of Nishinoomote, Japan 2017-12-21 03:40
5.7 249km NNE of Chichi-shima, Japan 2017-12-21 03:00
5.2 244km N of Chichi-shima, Japan 2017-12-21 01:56
4.9 240km N of Chichi-shima, Japan 2017-12-21 00:42
5.0 239km N of Chichi-shima, Japan 2017-12-21 00:40
4.9 87km E of Nishinoomote, Japan 2017-12-20 15:39
5.1 91km E of Nishinoomote, Japan 2017-12-20 14:45
5.5 103km E of Nishinoomote, Japan 2017-12-20 13:40

Phone did ring one time during Wednesday Evening and my immediate thought was it could be the big Peru Earthquake we're waiting for. . . but it wasn't! So just a reminder that one could still be coming because that's how it works sometime, they do come along beyond Day 43 which was Monday so keep watching!!!

4.0 Richters Earthquake Just Struck Oklahoma Mid-Day Tuesday!!! Also Small Pasadena Shaker, and One Near Susanville at "Likely, California"!!!

The first one on this list was that 4.0 at Mooreland, Oklahoma and those ones with different town names could be connected, but they could also be just more garden variety shakers that Oklahoma is getting to be famous for:

3.0 20km ENE of Hennessey, Oklahoma 2017-12-19 10:57
2.1 22km E of Hennessey, Oklahoma 2017-12-19 10:21:31

No felt reports from either that one, or this one and not sure why name of town Mexicali shows up on the list of nearby places? Not really all that nearby:

Still no felt reports at all on the list from that Pasadena Earthquake, too!!!

As I'm writing this the felt reports are just now coming in from that 4.0 Oklahoma Earthquake currently at 61 but is sure to be growing throughout the day on Tuesday as I'm heading to the party at my local community radio station tonight and have to stop yet and buy those "Christmas Cookies" that I'm taking!!! I'll try to have the felt report on that one in a later blog and hopefully not a lot more will be shaking there Tuesday!!! End of that New Moon Window would have been early Tuesday Morning but always watch a few extra hours you know!!!

I already cut and pasted this once, so if it shows up someplace else, then you found it!!! In the meantime I didn't find it so I'm re-posting it here because it truely is a lot of shaking around the San Francisco Bay Region. . . at least it WAS on Friday!!! We'll see if it keeps up over the weekend with that New Moon you know:

1.4 10km E of Alum Rock, CA 2017-12-15 09:17
1.9 10km E of Alum Rock, CA 2017-12-15 08:47

This one was 64.5 Miles ESE Offshore from South Padre Island, Texas and is just a little bit unusual. This would be just the felt report and you can just about figure out where abouts the epicenter is by those distances:

3.0 - 103km ENE of South Padre Island, Texas

So if I submit this edition right now, a few of you will have the opportunity to view it before that exact moment of the New Moon early Sunday. Very busy today preparing for the chance I'd been waiting for to be "Substitute D.J." at my local station this coming Friday, LATE!!! Now looks like I'll probably be doing that shift or midnight until 2am my time or Central Time and you WILL be able to go to the link we use for my regular "Earthquake Minute" and listen to some good old rock/roll or old pop hits from the 50's, 60's, 70's, and 80's and so I'm going to be really busy with that this week. . . along with watching for earthquakes!!! Keep Watching all through the New Moon Window into Tuesday and I'll have my next edition of my EQ Blog as needed whenever!!! Thank-You Again for Reading!!!

4.3 Northern California Earthquake From Late Wednesday Felt a Couple Places Around San Francisco Bay Area, BUT Apparently Not in Santa Rosa, Eureka, Ferndale, or Anywhere in Oregon!!! New Moon Window Will Start This Weekend!!!

I want to update Fridays EQ Blog with the fact that I just now located the exact moment of the upcoming New Moon and it will be very early Monday Morning. . . therefore the New Moon Window will begin around 10:30pm Saturday Night Pacific Time and around 12:31am Central. Since the New Moon Window runs now from Late Saturday into Early Tuesday, I'm adding it to this edition of my EQ Blog since a few places such as Pacific Islands, Iran-Iraq, Peru, and perhaps some of California, too!!! Now Fridays EQ Blog:

I found this great illustration that shows exactly where we are watching around Haiti, if you can see it here, the line goes directly through it there, and maybe even crosses the exact point where yesterdays Epicenter was. . .exactly as predicted!!! Haiti is now circled in RED and you can see the line isn't that far from Dover, Delaware, too, along with Edmonton and Chicago:

The felt reports from this late Wednesday Northern California Earthquake eventually came in from the San Francisco Bay Region although none ever came in from Santa Rosa. . . and surprisingly none from Eureka, Ferndale, or even up into Oregon where they had also just got a 4.0 earlier that evening or day as the case may be. I can only guess it's something to do with how the epicenter of Laytonville is situated with respect to the San Andreas Fault. Now you can check out the entire felt report@ http://earthquakealert.blogspot.com/2017/12/43-richters-earthquake-that-struck-late.html And Here's the USGS Report from that 4.3 NorCal Shaker:

4.3 - 19km WSW of Laytonville, CA
2017-12-14 04:57:18 UTC 39.600°N 123.669°W 6.1 km depth

Nearby Places:
11.8 Miles WSW of Laytonville, California
12.4 Miles SE of Cape Vizcaino, California
12.4 Miles SE of Rockport, California
13.0 Miles NNE of Fort Bragg, California
39.8 Miles NW of Ukiah, California

Looked like a lot of earthquakes in that one area, although I now see those Piru ones might be the same ones we discussed in yesterdays EQ Blog! Does still look like a lot in that same region, though:

1.6 6km ESE of Simi Valley, CA 2017-12-14 14:39
2.2 5km W of Malibu Beach, CA 2017-12-14 14:28
1.6 2km SSE of Piru, CA 2017-12-13 16:33
2.1 3km SE of Piru, CA 2017-12-13 16:23
2.4 4km SE of Piru, CA 2017-12-13 16:06

HERE'S a Great Story:

Haiti - FLASH : Quake in Petit-Goâve, 14/12/2017 04:28pm

The BME's Technical Seismology Unit (UTS) is teaming up with the Ministry of the Environment (MOE) and the Permanent Secretariat for Risk and Disaster Management (SPGRD) to inform that an earthquake of magnitude 3.6 on the scale of Richter was recorded on Tuesday, December 13, 2017 at 5h, 10, and 24 secondes.

The epicenter was located at sea 10 km north-west of Petit-Goâve and 17 km North-East of Miragoâne. The shock was widely felt in Petit-Goâve.

The Directorate of Civil Protection informs for its that in the early evening, an earthquake has shaken Petit-Goâve causing panic in the city center. No damage recorded for the moment. Almost all sections communal (12) felt the quake, according to the communal committee of the DPC."

The UTS reminds everyone that "earthquakes can not be predicted and can occur at any time." Therefore, faced the seismic threat, the actions of preparation remain of rigor : respect of the norms of construction earthquake-resistant, learning the behavior to take before, during and after an earthquake."
~~~Hello, I borrowed this from the following Haiti Website@ https://www.haitilibre.com/en/news-22979-haiti-flash-quake-in-petit-goave.html Thank-You!!!

There had been two Malibu Earthquakes, so I just cut the update from the list of latest and I'll post it right here, but it's an update to the similar above list, too:

1.9 4km ENE of Moorpark, CA 2017-12-15 05:36
1.2 6km SW of Malibu Beach, CA 2017-12-14 14:39
2.3 4km WSW of Malibu Beach, CA 2017-12-14 14:28

Thank-You for tuning-in if you stopped by on Friday to listen to this weeks "Earthquake Minute"!!! That video can be found at top of page and the transcript, too!!!

With Haiti now shaking, it appears we might really need to watch there for as big as a 5 or 6 Richters, maybe Dover, Delaware, Northern California yet for a while, too!!! And very sorry for our friend the Firefighter from Escondido, San Diego who lost his life fighting fires in California.

4.0 Richters Struck Between Salem, And Portland, Oregon Late Wednesday!!! Also a 4.3 Northern California Earthquake, Too!!! And 2.4 Richters Struck Piru in The Middle of That Big Wildfire Up In That Region!!!

Earthquakes are coming in while I'm getting todays EQ Blog together!!! Thought the most recent was going to be the big write-up about this here 4.0 Richters Earthquake that Struck 20 Miles East of Salem, Oregon and 30 Miles South of Portland, Oregon. . . . . and so let me get started with this one but there's more!!! Here's The Felt Report from the 4.0 Oregon Shaker at Earthquake Central@ http://eqalert.blogspot.com/2017/12/40-richters-earthquake-struck-20-miles.html

Who would have EVER beleived that I'd have been so close on that Haiti Earthquake!!! This one even surprised me and took me a moment to go back through and find where I posted Haiti. . . and found Day 60 on that alert will be yet to come on December 20th! It's the end of the line we are following through Fairbanks, and Edmonton and even below I'll go on to tell you about another shaker at Dover, Delaware, too!!! And I know I said Haiti more than once in recent blogs, and probably "Earthquake Minute" too!!! Here's that:

3.6 9km NW of Petit Goave, Haiti, 2017-12-13, 4:10pm Central Time

Nearby Places:
35 Miles West of Port-au-Prince, Haiti

At first I only saw the 2.1, but at press time I noticed there had been more than one and result is the list that follows this here bigger one along with the felt report from the now 2.4 Piru Earthquake. List of so far 3 there follows:

2.4 - 4km SE of Piru, CA
2017-12-13 16:06:10 UTC

2.1 3km SE of Piru, CA 2017-12-13 16:23
2.4 4km SE of Piru, CA 2017-12-13 16:06

Dover, Delaware could still get something as this additional tiny one indicates:

1.2 - 13km NE of Dover, Delaware
2017-12-13 00:45:27 UTC 39.258°N 75.436°W 2.7 km depth

Nearby Places:
2.2 Miles ENE of Whitehall Landing, Delaware
8.4 Miles NE of Dover, Delaware
15.9 Miles SW of Bridgeton, New Jersey
20.0 Miles SE of Middletown, Delaware

Big 6.5 Richters Earthquake shook the middle of the ocean South of Africa. . . but probably tells us there's going to be more shaking like this somewhere else soon:

6.5 - 82km WNW of Bouvet Island, Bouvet Island
2017-12-13 18:03:43 UTC 54.209°S 2.140°E 15.1 km depth

Nearby Places:

1598.4 Miles SW of Hermanus, South Africa
1602.4 Miles SW of Retreat, South Africa
1606.9 mi) SW of Claremont, South Africa
1607.2 mi) SW of Lansdowne, South Africa

As was predictable, the Indian Ocean Tectonic Plate IS moving as the result of all the shaking around Yap, Micronesia recently!!! These are two different ones and I'll discuss the connection later in the blog, right now check out the reports that came to my E-Mail:

== PRELIMINARY EARTHQUAKE REPORT ==

130.2 km (80.7 mi) ENE of Rafsanjān, Iran

Here's what the Kerman Earthquakes look like when I put them on the list with the ones near Baghdad, and you can see it looks like there just might be a connection between the shaking at Baghdad and the shaking at Kerman:

6.0 64km NNE of Kerman, Iran 2017-12-12 15:41
5.9 56km NNE of Kerman, Iran 2017-12-12 02:43

5.4 25km WSW of Halabjah, Iraq 2017-12-11 08:09, NW of Baghdad

Submitted a new update to my friends at Pacifica Radio Network on Tuesday and here's a look at the transcript. . . although it probably wouldn't even air until later today if they decide to play it at all you know@ http://earthquakealert.blogspot.com/2017/12/transcript-santa-ana-winds-pacifica.html

Here's some other shaking that took place around the Caribbean, and keep watching there because something much bigger could still happen:

1.6 16km SSW of Guanica, Puerto Rico 2017-12-13 08:48
3.1 2km ENE of Candelero Arriba, Puerto Rico 2017-12-13 03:43
2.2 4km SE of Charlotte Amalie, U.S. Virgin Islands 2017-12-13 00:15
2.4 3km SW of Santa Isabel, Puerto Rico 2017-12-13 00:00:53 (UTC)

This edition of my EQ Blog is going to press right now and I must say contains one or two that weren't quite enough to post yesterday if anybody noticed:) Main thing to watch for is more shaking along that now VERY SHAKY line from Canada, to Haiti where lots of shaking is going on!!! Along with Oregon and Northern California which might be considered along that line, too, and all told that alert runs into January so let's be watching!!! Update on that Northern California Earthquake that rang my phone at 11:02pm late Wednesday Night my time, and currently has over 500 felt reports, will be coming in tomorrows EQ Blog!!!
