UPDATE: 3.3 Richters Strikes Connecticut, 24 Miles West of Providence and maybe 50 Miles East of Hartford, and New Haven! At 6:36am Eastern Time, Here's the Felt Report: http://eqalert.blogspot.com/2015/01/33-richters-earthquake-strikes.html NOW Todays EQ Blog:
Just occurred to me over the weekend that one other earthquake that struck in the day range we are approaching was the now Great Honshu Japan Earthquake-Tsunami of 2011. So I went back and searched the basic information on that and found landfall of Cyclone Yasi at Queensland, Australia was on February 2, 2011 and the Honshu, Japan Earthquake was on March 11, 2011 or Day 37 after that landfall. Day 37 after landfall of Typhoon Hagupit at Philippines will be Tuesday of this week.
Lots of earthquakes seem to be striking at the Mid-Atlantic and one that looks like it is shaking at the same time on the other side of the Continent of Africa. At least one up in the region around Iceland, too, but that might otherwise be considered usual if it wasn't happening in the middle of all this other stuff.
My regular readers know that I have been routinely keeping track of everything that goes on with the Golden Gate Bridge. Well, this weekend as a lot of you know that bridge was closed much of the time to install a new barrier between inbound and outbound traffic. Writing about it here today because it is my opinion there could NOW be an issue with how much ADDITIONAL WEIGHT might be involved with all the new concrete they are installing!!! Here's the LINK to that story@ http://news.yahoo.com/golden-gate-bridge-closes-install-collision-barrier-082741256.html At the end of that story you might notice it was closed one other time in 1987 a few hours to celebrate the 50th Anniversary, but my question in brief today is if they celebrated the 50th Anniversary of the Golden Gate Bridge in 1987. . . then exactly how old are those cables that are supposed to be "Suspending" this bridge up in the air above San Francisco Bay? And did the engineers calculate all the additional weight of all those concrete barriers before installing them because it does not look like too good of an idea to me to be installing MORE concrete out in the middle of a 2000 foot span of steel that is only being supported by two cables that now appear to be going on something like 75 years old? Today we are now forced by laws to replace any such cables when they reach like five years of age including the cables we use for rigging and lifting of the heaviest of objects. . . not sure what the reason is that they seem to NOT have to replace those cables EVER!? This is at least partly due to having worked out there for all the contractors at one time and was one of the guys who always hoped for such a Great Job!!!
Moving on, here is the now updated complete list of countries from my "Performance Page" and that entire list of countries so far is: United States, United Kingdom, Switzerland, Russia, Romania, Belgium, Netherlands, Greece, Italy, Japan, Egypt, Hong Kong, Singapore, Slovenia, Antilles, Malta, Romania, Malaysia, Guam, Philippines, France, Germany, Poland, New Zealand, Argentina, South Africa, Kenya, Nepal, Indonesia, India, Canada, Haiti, Chile, Australia, and Jamaica. I'll keep this list updated at this location through late January, too, and will see if it grows at all or not.
So, let's watch as Day 37 approaches on Tuesday because there is probably still one Major Earthquake-Tsunami awaiting! The occasion of that Japan Earthquake-Tsunami was also eerily similar to this occasion in that it seemed rather quiet at the time. . . all except for ME, continuing to be watching!!!!! EQ Guy

Oklahoma!!! Where They Just Got 4 Earthquakes In One Hour!!!
Just as I was about to start writing my EQ Blog. . . wouldn't you know this great story would come across the wire! Started to sound like a theme song from an old Broadway play as I was writing that headline, too, doesn't it? Yes, Oklahoma was at one time a Rodgers and Hammerstein play, but don't tell me any more about it, because I may go check out a copy from my local library tomorrow! Here is the list I was talking about in that headline, first one at 22:26 and latest one as of this writing at 23:29 and possible more could come along throughout Saturday Morning, too:
2.6 4km S of Guthrie, Oklahoma 2015-01-09 23:29:14 8.0 km
2.8 8km E of McLoud, Oklahoma 2015-01-09 23:12:39 6.7 km
3.1 4km SSW of Perry, Oklahoma 2015-01-09 23:06:52 2.1 km
2.9 4km S of Guthrie, Oklahoma 2015-01-09 22:26:07 5.0 km
Of course there were many others much further down the list, along with a Texas Earthquake or two as well, but when they started coming across one right after another and the map was suddenly filled with red dots. . . I knew something was up and so I checked immediately!
Mixed up in about that same time span were also a 4.4 Peru and a 4.0 Turkey Earthquakes with Peru still on that list for the Major Earthquake-Tsunami if one is still out there, and it should be! Now looking at Day numbers 34, 35, and Day 36 will be Monday. Anything can still happen with a couple of my all time best being Day 42 after Hurricane Sandy, and Day 43 after the landfall of Hurricane Katrina. Keep watching!!!
And along those lines also check out this pic from the "Speaking of Sub-Zero Temperatures Department"
Again, if you think about it you already know this is caused by extremely cold temperatures and I'm just saying it is also a factor in some plate tectonics or possibly in some Major Earthquake Energy (Seismic Activity) along the different fault lines. Still watching for something in the 6 Richters range for our West Coast, and there could still be 8 Richters and a tsunami out there around Indonesia and still possibly Peru or Chile. EQ Guy

2.5 Richters Earthquake Strikes Very Near Beautiful Downtown Hayward, California!!!
A close look at the epicenter of the 2.5 Richters Earthquake at Hayward, California shows that it was less than a mile south of Hayward High School and even closer, practically at the Pioneer Stadium of California State University East Bay, and in the area of one mile south of Hayward City Hall right there in the middle of Beautiful Downtown Hayward, California and just next door to the Lucky Supermarket, there!!! Here's the felt report, but if the shaking gets too much bigger at that location they could be in trouble, too!!!
City.....Zip....CA.....USA......................................#.....Km
Fremont (94555) CA United States of America........2.....13 km
Hayward (94541) CA United States of America........6......6 km
Hayward (94542) CA United States of America........5......6 km
Hayward (94544) CA United States of America........9......6 km
Oakland (94601) CA United States of America........1.....19 km
In addition to the big towns listed above in that abbreviated list, there was also Castro Valley-9, San Leandro-13, and Union City-1, and that list was continuing to grow as of press time even though I checked and rechecked the actual time of the earthquake and it appears to have been at 8:49pm Central, and 6:49pm Pacific and apparently the felt reports continued to come in! Let's check it right now, and I even see that Hayward 94544 has gone up from 9 to 13 even since a few moments ago when I cut and pasted the above! I might update later if they don't get even more earthquakes or an even bigger one!!!
Well, I have been having some trouble with my main EQ Blog page as some of you have no doubt noticed, and yesterday got into a terrible mess with the buttons that go between the "Compose" Page and the "All Posts" Page. Problem was that there is a page in between where it gives me the option of changing everything all around and that is basically what happened! You have probably already noticed and you are probably reading on the very messed up page right now! Yes, I haven't any idea at all how to get the page back to how I like it. . . and it's very possible it will never be returned to the "Classic Style" that I have been running on here for so many years! The "Mobile" version has been changed, too, although I am not exactly sure what the mobile version looked like before I started changing things there, too!
Friday I'll be going to the funeral for my fathers second wife and I was asked to be a pallbearer. Dad and my Step-Mother Barb were huge fans of my work in the movie business!!! Here is a great pic of them taken from their 1996 Christmas Card. Dad passed away in 2003.
Here is a look at that obit@ http://www.gazettextra.com/20150107/barbara_a_brown_janesville_wi_1935_2015
As of press time on todays EQ Blog I have not got an exact correlation for just sub-zero temperatures alone. Many for snow, high winds, and sub-zero temperatures, but right at the moment it's just mostly the sub-zero temperatures alone and one might only guess that there could be some reaction to the extreme cold when it comes to tectonic plates. The best correlation if you can call it that, is the story I told on a recent "EQ Radio Show" about that "Smart Millwright" who suggested using dry-ice to free up a STUCK VALVE in a High-Pressure Steam Turbine. Well, we hammered and hammered and it remained stuck until my now very famous friend suggested putting dry-ice on it. Wasn't too long after doing just that and the big valve was UN-STUCK!!! So, apply several bags of dry-ice to a valve that was like 24 inches across and it shrinks, freeing it. . . apply the sub-zero temperatures we're getting to the Northern U.S. and parts of the south, and we might expect a stuck fault line somewhere to do the same! So be watching for the tinyist of fault lines to free up from having possibly been stuck for a lot of years, like possibly millions! And be prepared! EQ Guy

Texas, Texas, Texas!!! We're Talking Some Serious Shaking There!!!!! Could They Get Big One?
Although there has also just been a 4.8 Richters Shaker up in the immediate area of Canada just across the Strait of Juan de Fuca from that very Northwestern tip of the State of Washington which gave me the opportunity to check out some beautiful scenery up that way courtesy of Map World! Didn't look like it was hardly near enough to our side of that political boundary to actually be felt in our country, but mostly notable for the fact that it was preceded by that 6.6 Richters at Panama late Monday as well as all the shaking in Texas which leads me to my next topic today.
Yes, Texas, Texas, Texas!!! I wanted to mention it somewhere at some point, and don't think it came up in yesterdays EQ Blog, but 6.6 Richters Panama and now add to that 4.8 Western Canada just might still equal something along our own West Coast could be next. Additionally all the shaking now in Texas could also be a factor, here. Is it possible all this action along the edges of the Pacific Tectonic Plate could next mean something for California.
Here is what the entire list of the biggest Texas Earthquakes looks like, and keep in mind there are a lot of smaller ones, although those could be mostly aftershocks of the series from Monday:
2.7 5km NE of Irving, Texas 2015-01-07 09:57:29 5.0 km
2.7 4km ENE of Irving, Texas 2015-01-07 08:34:02 5.0 km
3.1 4km NE of Irving, Texas 2015-01-07 00:59:03 5.0 km
2.7 4km NE of Irving, Texas 2015-01-06 20:12:16 4.0 km
2.9 5km ENE of Irving, Texas 2015-01-06 20:11:17 5.0 km
3.6 6km ENE of Irving, Texas 2015-01-06 18:52:09 5.0 km
3.5 5km ENE of Irving, Texas 2015-01-06 15:10:31 5.2 km
There was also a 4.0 Oklahoma Earthquake with a whole lot of felt reports that came from places in Texas including Dallas, and Irving, along with of course many from Oklahoma as well as Kansas, too.
Well, if those sub-zero temperatures actually ARE a factor such as I have said before in the past like when I discuss dry-ice as a lot of you know, if cold is a factor then watch out! It is cold and more like 0 Degrees cold, if no degrees at all makes any sense! And I have seen the thermometer read -1 at some point in the recent days, too! So, if severe sub-zero cold temperatures are a factor, there might even be more earthquakes coming faster than I will have tome to explain all of that! Possibly places such as Southern Illinois, New Madrid, North Carolina, Tennessee, and Virgina Region, too! Be Watching!!! EQ Guy

6.6 Richters Strikes 161 Miles South Of Panama! ALSO: 3.6 And 3.5 Near Dallas, Texas
Very close to press time today on this here EQ Blog that you're reading, and a 6.6 Richters Earthquake strikes 161 Miles South of Panama in Central America. Far enough offshore that I had to go directly to check for a tsunami and luckily there was not one. Far enough offshore that neither were there any felt reports posted in about the immediate hour past the moment it happened which must have been about the same time my movie got done and I turned the computer on or a few minutes after 11pm Central Time now going on one hour ago, no felt reports yet.
Previously the big headline for today, and now the second paragraph, but still startling, is the fact that there was a LOT of shaking near Dallas, Texas on Monday. 3.6, 3.5, and 3.5 plus one or two others with the second 3.5 being slightly farther west of Dallas and near Snyder, Texas. Here is the felt report from the 3.5 Richters Near Dallas today, although it was followed about an hour by that 3.6, the felt reports must be quite the same, so I did not redo it: http://eqalert.blogspot.com/2015/01/35-richters-strikes-near-dallas-texas.html
All of that said, I also came up with this small fact at some point during the day on Monday, upon other additional research on fracking being a factor in California Earthquakes, did Virginia City shake FIRST, and then Mammoth Lakes? And would that have had something to do with the fact that the earthquake energy supposedly came from Oklahoma and pushed west into Nevada, and THEN against California to Mammoth Lakes. . . then Napa, California? Not usually the path that I generally suspect nor up to this point have I ever entertained this exact process being what actually happened, but working on that one just the same and will continue. Probably also connected in some way to those Texas Earthquakes being foreshocks to the 6.6 Panama Earthquake, maybe.
Here is another great You Tube vid that I discovered along the way! Check out the very latest in robots that do a lot of amazing stuff!!! @
Finally, when there was not much else to write about I came up with this link to that actual complete Top-40 chart of the top songs from 2014 so you may view the entire chart if anybody is interested: http://www.at40.com/top-40/chart/34359
And there may continue to be one or two Major Earthquakes coming, we will need to see what the situation in Panama turns out to be and if there are any more shakers to follow. Could this be the Pacific Plate heading for that shaker we were watching for in Peru? Because if it is, then we are still watching for 8 Richters. EQ Guy

New Zealand Is Shaking!!! Getting A Lot Of Earthquakes!!! Could They Get The Big One?
Not a lot else going on so check out this weeks Video Log about those possible foreshocks of 4.9 Idaho, and 4.5 Los Angeles! CLICK Arrow:
SEE This Weeks New Video Log at You Tube@ http://youtu.be/grMz1odl410
Did happen to have a few earthquakes around New Zealand including this 5.6 that got quite a felt report and is worth mentioning. Notice Christchurch was only a few miles from the epicenter and hopefully will not get another big earthquake, although a lot of this 8 or 9 Richers could be moving that tectonic plate in that direction and New Zealand HAS been mentioned! Here's that felt report so far as of this writing:
City......State.......NZ........................#.....Km
Ashburton, Canterbury, New Zealand......1.....102 km
Christchurch, Canterbury, New Zealand...1.....125 km
Lincoln, Canterbury, New Zealand........1.....120 km
Timaru, Canterbury, New Zealand.........1.....145 km
I went back to this list of latest earthquakes to check and find out exactly how many earthquakes that region has had and actually had to subtract a whole lot of them that listed Fiji as the epicenter even though they looked very close to New Zealand so just saying there could also be something going on in that region, too. It is at the edge of the same exact tectonic plate we are watching, there!!! Here is the list of all those earthquakes going back to December 30:
4.2 48km SSE of Hokitika, New Zealand 2015-01-05 22:04:57
4.8 214km S of L'Esperance Rock, New Zealand 2015-01-05 21:35:07
5.3 206km NNW of Auckland Island, New Zealand 2015-01-05 18:14:21
5.6 44km SSE of Hokitika, New Zealand 2015-01-05 11:48:42
4.8 201km NNE of Raoul Island, New Zealand 2014-12-31 12:11:10
4.8 121km W of Raoul Island, New Zealand 2014-12-30 07:54:04

4.9 Strikes Idaho Near Epicenter of 6.9 Richters 1983 Earthquake, And 4.5 Shakes Los Angeles!!! Full Moon Window Runs All Through Monday!!!
You could say there was a lot of earthquake activity over the January Full Moon Weekend with the exact moment of the full moon being late Sunday night and the full moon window will continue to run all the way through Monday and it could very well still appear full even on Monday Night, although the window will have passed at around 11pm Monday Night. Still a chance that at least some of the earthquake energy comes from just the fact that the moon is still very bright in the sky and so we might even say to watch into Tuesday Morning, even though technically Tuesday Morning is several hours beyond the end of the window let us run the extended window until sunrise on Tuesday or between 7 and 8am Central Time, and maybe 7 or 8am Pacific, too.
Looked up to find out where the epicenter of 1983 Borah Peak Idaho Earthquake was because one of the news stories over the weekend that covered the 4.9 Idaho Earthquake mentioned the two epicenters were very close and found the epicenter of the 1983 Idaho Earthquake of 6.9 Richters to have been about 30 miles south of this weekends 4.9 Challis, Idaho Earthquake and further reading revealed that there were actually two deaths in that town when the 6.9 Richters Borah Peak 1983 Idaho Earthquake struck when two children were hit by falling masonry while walking to school. Here is the felt report from Idaho: http://www.eqalert.blogspot.com/2015/01/49-richters-strikes-119-miles-east-of.html AND a link to the story about the 1983 Idaho Earthquake at Wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1983_Borah_Peak_earthquake
The other big earthquake news from this weekend was when Los Angeles was rocked by a 4.5 Richters Earthquake that struck to the north of San Fernando Valley near Castaic. There were several foreshocks at Santa Monica on the evening before the Northridge Earthquake, although TV News said the foreshocks did not indicate a Major Earthquake would be forthcoming, the Northridge Earthquake struck the next morning. Most of you probably know they were saying the same stuff late on Saturday and of course as a result of that, we should probably continue to watch another day or so at least through the end of the January Full Moon Window and see if one of those key places such as Long Beach, Los Angeles, Hollywood, Northridge, or the Castaic Region will get more shaking, yet. You can still check out the complete and updated felt report from that earthquake at Earthquake Central@ http://www.eqalert.blogspot.com/2015/01/45-richters-strikes-north-of-los.html THAT Earthquake struck at 9:18pm Pacific Time, or 11:18pm Central and the Full Moon Window started at 10:54pm Central so 24 minutes into the Full Moon Window!!!
Meanwhile, I managed to have some time to do other things on Sunday including shoveling snow three times since it seems to have turned to Winter in Wisconsin and in between those shoveling sessions also caught the AT-40 Show with Top Songs from the year 2014!!! Here's the top 10 and am very happy to tell you I knew all of them!!! Ironically the song "Happy" just missed the top 10. . .coming in at #11, here's that top ten list: 1. Dark Horse, Katy Perry, 2. Counting Stars, Onerepublic, 3. Talk Dirty, Jason Derulo Featuring 2 Chainz, 4. Timber, Pitbull Featuring Kesha, 5. John Legend, All Of Me, 6. The Monster, Eminem Featuring Rihanna, 7. Am I Wrong, Nico And Vinz, 8. Team, Lorde, 9.Pompeii, Bastille, 10. Rude, Magic! AND You Are up-to-date on everything!!! Full Moon Window will continue all through Monday so we will keep watching for some Major Aftershocks and also keep watching those other parts of the world where they also get Major Earthquakes from time to time!!!

4.5 Strikes North Of Los Angeles, AND 4.9 Strikes East Of Boise!!! Full Moon Window Has BEGUN!!! WATCH For Lots More Earthquakes!!! 8 Richters/Tsunami Los Angeles???
And now this special edition of my EQ Blog, because normally I might not write on a Sunday. . . but it is looking like so much earthquake shaking especially Los Angeles, but do not discount Boise, Idaho and with the January Full Moon just about now high overhead we need to watch for lots more shaking and possibly that BIG Earthquake!!! Watch Out Los Angeles for up to 8 Richters and possibly a tsuamni of I don't know how BIG!!!!! Here's the Felt Report From 4.5 North of Los Angeles Earthquake@ http://eqalert.blogspot.com/2015/01/45-richters-strikes-north-of-los.html AND The Felt Report from that earlier East of Boise Earthquake of 4.9 Richters @ http://www.eqalert.blogspot.com/2015/01/49-richters-strikes-119-miles-east-of.html
The exact moment of the January Full Moon will be on January 5, 2015 at 4:54 Universal Time, or about 10:54pm Central Time on January 4, or 8:54pm Pacific Time tonight as I write this EQ Blog entry and there have already been all those earthquakes directly affecting California so I can only say to watch for more!!!
All that about 8 Richters and a Tsunami is your basic precautionary stuff without too much real basis for that much conjecture you understand. . . just that there is really a lot of Major Earthquake Energy out there yet, and we might also remember to watch over around Great Nicobar Island and Sumatra, yet. There are many other places such as Peru and New Zealand that could get Major Earthquakes and possibly tsunami's before the January Full Moon Window is all through on Monday and even beyond that, too!!! Keep Watching and now might be the time to practice some earthquake preparation!!!!! God Bless!!! EQ Guy

January Full Moon Window Starts At Moon Rise Saturday!!! 6 Richters California? 8 Richters + Tsunami Sumatra??? UPDATE: 4.9 Richters Near Boise, Idaho!!!!!
UPDATE: At 10:44am Mountain Time on Saturday there was a 4.9 Richters Earthquake near Boise, Idaho felt all over that region!!! WATCH For More!!! Here's That Felt Report at Earthquake Central: http://eqalert.blogspot.com/2015/01/49-richters-strikes-119-miles-east-of.html NOW Todays EQ Blog:
Must begin by hearing this weeks Happy New Year Podcast!!! CLICK Arrow:
Have to mention the fact that it is a rare occasion when I happen to spot a Tropical Cyclone crossing the exact path that we are presently tracking a Major Earthquake. Probability that there is some connection to the energy crossing that region. . . but whatever it is it is currently crossing directly along the line where we are watching for a Major Earthquake to strike up around the Grand Nicobar Islands and this storm is crossing the exact same region from east to west along the line from Myanmar and Phuket across the Andaman Sea directly towards Nicobar. There is even one theory of old that states the earthquake energy might even travel in the form of atmospheric energy and this could be it! Could be that according to that theory that actually does not even have a name, the arc between phaselike energies of the two oceans, Pacific and Indian, might cause an earthquake when this energy or these clouds, or this storm reaches the waters of the Indian Ocean it could arc and cause shaking. Exactly how much shaking we will need to watch for another day or so and coincidentally the January Full Moon will become a factor by then!
Saturday, Sunday, and Monday will be Day 27, 28, and 29 after landfall of Typhoon Hagupit and while those days do not have a whole lot of correlations to go along with them, it will be the January Full Moon Window and there are plenty of correlations for Day 30. Therefore any number of days could become the next correlation and we must be watching! Those will also be Day 23, 24, and 25 after landfall of San Francisco Pineapple Express and they are also reporting a lot of trees fallen from some other major wind event just more recently, too. All combined and the full moon, too, we will also have to watch San Francisco and California, and possibly L.A. since that big Offshore Long Beach shaker has me sort of worried, too. L.A. could get any amount due to the Pacific alert going up to 8 Richters and the California alert being around 6.
Finally, I was lucky enough to catch a basketball game featuring some of my old friends from the University of California Riverside on Friday and here is a great pic of how that game ended, yes he makes this shot, but Riverside Bears still came up short about one point in the end!!!
Team includes guys from Northridge, Hemet, San Francisco, Sacramento, Carson, Santa Clarita, and Aptos, California, as well as Utah, Saginaw, Sweeden, China, and etc.
WATCH For earthquakes and the January Full Moon Window should begin at Moonrise on Saturday or just past local sunset. There will probably be earthquakes and there is still an 8 Richters Earthquake with some kind of tsunami possibly out there, too!!! EQ Guy

5.1 Richters Shakes Much Of Northern California!!! January Full Moon Window Begins At Moon Rise On Saturday Night!!! Be Watching!!!
There appear to be a lot of different reports all about this one same earthquake, but I have the current listing at 5.1, although I have seen it might have been originally posted as a 5.3 and possibly other numbers on this shaker, too! For now, unless a change comes in I will be referring to it as the 5.1, and I tend to not change my number even when sometimes it is re-calibrated, still easier to leave it. So, here is that Felt Report from what I am calling the 5.1 Richters Offshore Northern California Earthquake@ http://eqalert.blogspot.com/2015/01/51-richters-strikes-offshore-at-eureka.html YOU Might also want to check out the felt report from that Offshore Long Beach 3.9 From New Years Eve Day with a huge list of places around Los Angeles where it was felt@ http://www.eqalert.blogspot.com/2014/12/39-richters-strikes-just-south-of-long.html
As of this writing it looks like a lot of my internet is not working here in Wisconsin due to not being able to get too much else to come up here besides Twitter and Facebook so I am not able to give you the very latest earthquakes although I did scan my twitter feed and have only your garden variety small ones being discussed at this moment. Moving on, here is the now updated complete list of countries from my "Performance Page" and that entire list of countries so far is: United States, United Kingdom, Switzerland, Russia, Romania, Netherlands, Greece, Italy, Japan, Egypt, Hong Kong, Singapore, Slovenia, Antilles, Malta, Romania, Malaysia, Guam, Philippines, France, Germany, Poland, New Zealand, Argentina, South Africa, Kenya, Nepal, Indonesia, India, Canada, Haiti, Chile, Australia, and Jamaica. I will update the above list for a few days so that if you are reading this beyond January 1st, it has been updated for at least the next few days afterwards. Beyond a few days, I will probably re-run the list and this list will become obsolete. (Stopped Updating this list on Jan. 8, SEE Jan. 9 or later)
Finally, one last look at this weeks "Happy New Year 2015" Video Log and you can see it directly at my EQ You-Tube Page right now, CLICK: http://youtu.be/U3LZX-HLy8g Thank-You for watching, and Thank-You Everybody for reading and continue to watch for earthquakes as the January Full Moon Window will begin as the full moon rises on Saturday Night and run through Monday Night!!!!!
