6.2 Northern California Means Watch Vancouver Island, Anchorage, And Perhaps San Francisco, And Los Angeles For 6.2 To 6.5!!! AND 3.1 Richters Near Montgomery, Alabama!!!

Due to my last edition going to press in a hurry, a couple things that missed the press deadline!!!  First, the text for an upcoming edition of "Earthquake Minute" must already have discussed the fact that 6.2 Northern California seemed to have indicated the next spot along that line of shaking now could be Vancouver Island and beyond that some time, perhaps just a few days will be Anchorage, Alaska!  Further along the lines of the Pacific Tectonic Plate moving in sympathy to Mondays 6.2 shows it may be possible some similar movement along the San Andreas Fault could come to shake Frisco or L.A. and the fact that the San Andreas Fault basically runs directly through the Western Regions of San Francisco and the far Eastern Regions of the Los Angeles Region!

With landfall of Super Typhoon Rai now reportedly with upwards of 300 dead and tons of damage, I went ahead and checked the brand-new line of "Potential Seismic Energy" and found Arica, Chile!!!  This because after the 6.2 Richters Earthquake struck Offshore Northern California it made me wonder if that big Super Typhoon didn't have anything to do with California shaking!?  Well, on the contrary I found an active pre-existing alert for that very NorCal Region and Mondays 6.2 fit nicely into that discussion so we will now have to watch Vancouver Island, and onto Anchorage, Alaska for about the same Magnitude Range or a 6.2 to 6.5 for any or all of those regions!!!

Here's the Script/Transcript from this weeks upcoming EQ Alert Radio Network version of show:

Hi, EQ Guy Here!!!!!   Offshore Northern California really shook on Tuesday at a 6.2 on the Richter Scale felt in Montana, Utah, Nevada, and Olympia, Washingtonnnn!!!!!  Next spots to expect shaking along this line include Vancouver Island, then more up towards Anchorage, Alaska and might expect all the shaking to be in the range of about 6.2 to 6.5 there!!!  Tells me the Pacific Tectonic Plate IS MOVING and may I guess the San Andreas Fault Line could also yet get some of this shaking?  So we should probably keep in mind San Francisco and Los Angeles situated right there along it and that big fault line actually runs directly through parts of Frisco and far Eastern Los Angeles Region, too!!!  Not real big amount of potential earthquake energy but we’ve already seen what it did to NorCal.
~~~Filed an “Official Prediction,” with the National Earthquake Prediction Evaluation Council this week for the next big New Madrid Earthquake due to the potential all the big windstorms in that very region have for Major Shaking yet to come, there!!! And I am now here to tell you it could, just could go about as high as 7 or 8 Richters!!!  Be watching for some big time shaking there at or near the very famous New Madrid Fault Zone!   A formal prediction HAS BEEN filed with the National Prediction Council and it seems very likely they will be shaking!!!!!
~~~I’ve tracked the path of that recent several state tornado directly to a town by the name of “Edison, New Jersey”!!! Although a reference to a fairly large area on our East Coast which probably includes much of New York
~~~You can see all that and more at my EQ Blog @ www.earthquakealert.blogspot.com   And you are up-to-date!!!
~~~Have a great Holiday Weekend, Everybody and Very Merry Christmas from Earthquake Minute, and Me The EQ Guyyyyyyyyy!!!!!!!!

Looking at 3.1 Alabama and not exactly sure if this is a shaky region or a place getting some of the shaking that you could say is to be expected the result of lot of tornadoes in that region!  Of course the latest on that is we'll need to watch for what could become the Next Big New Madrid Earthquake and over time they've had a number of earthquakes in that region that all together are known as New Madrid Earthquakes since this may all be part of the New Madrid Fault Zone!  Not sure as I'm writing if Montgomery, Alabama qualifies as such.  And shaking this week at Northern California might indicate to watch San Francisco and Los Angeles so be watching!!!  And Happy Holidays/Merry Christmas if I don't see you sooner!!!
