That 5.3 Richters "Volcanic Explosion" at Mt. Kilauea Finally Came In Late Thursday Afternoon Around 5pm Central Time!!! Now Over 48 Hours Between Them!!! Next One Should Strike There on Saturday!!! Felt Report In From Iquique, Chile Earthquake!!!

Late in the day on Thursday when my phone rang. . . knew it was the "Volcanic Explosion" at Mt. Kilauea!!! Check it out:

5.3 Volcanic Eruption - 5km WSW of Volcano, Hawaii
2018-08-02 21:55:12 UTC 19.412°N 155.283°W 0.8 km depth

Description: "This earthquake was associated with rockfalls and minor collapses along the walls of Kilauea crater occurring at 11:55 AM Thursday, August 2, 2018 local time. No emissions were observed above the crater."

Apparently there's an epicenter somewhere around Glendora where they got quite a lot of shaking and along with a few other places I made all into this list I'll call the L.A. Region today:

Now as of this writing it looks like that last "Volcanic Explosion" at Mt. Kilauea was 51 hours beyond the previous one and if they continue on in that now 48 hour range, next one may not strike there until Saturday Afternoon sometime! I'll have more discussion on all that into next week, but for now it'd be my best guess there should be a 5.3 Mt. Kilauea Earthquake on Saturday and the next following one will then be on Monday but I'll probably be on here with my next edition of my EQ Blog before the shaker there on Monday!!! Good Weekend, then, everybody!!!
