MegaThruster as Big as That 9.5 Great Chile Earthquake of 1960??? Santiago? Lima, Peru? West Coast???

There was one additional 2.5 on that very island where Tropical Storm Flossie made landfall late Sunday Night at Hawaii for a grand total of 6.6 Richters of earthquake energy that accompanied the landfall of Flossie there when all totaled, although I don't exactly know if a grand total is of any value. Do watch for some more earthquake energy to strike Hawaii and I wouldn't be surprised if they got one as big as 6 Richters in the coming hours and days. Also do remember there is a MegaThruster out there somewhere and I suppose in a rare example Flossie and 6.6 series could trigger something big, however I do not see it as big as 9.

Chile on the other hand did have a 9.5 in 1960 and this upcoming one that just had a foreshock at Easter Island of 4.6 could mean it is heading directly for the West Coast of Chile right on time and should be there very soon. Hopefully NOT as big as 9 Richters. Hopefully NOT as big as 8 Richters. Maybe, then, we might watch in the 7 Richter Range.

Today I worked in Chicago Film Production all day and got some of the BEST Close-Ups ever in my entire life!!! Going over, and over again so close between the camera and two of the stars of the show that I was actually getting to know the Cameraman personally!!! That doesn't happen too often in acting. . . but it did today!!! Great Day for me as far as my acting career is concerned and with that Great Picasso staring at us from directly across the street all day it was a wonderful day of filming in Beautiful Downtown Chicago!!!!!

So, watch the Pacific for a huge MegaThruster and remember the 1960 Chile Earthquake produced a wave 35 Feet that traveled 10,000 Kilometers!!! With a rupture 800 Kilometers long!!! Thank-You for Reading!!! EQ Guy

UPDATE: 2.5 at Volcano, Hawaii just came in!!! USGS=M2.5 - 6km SW of Volcano, Hawaii 2013-07-31 5:26 UTC, 26 Past Midnight Central Time. Grand Total NOW = 9.1 Richters out at Hawaii. . . . .

NEW Easter Islands Earthquake struck around 9am CDT! @ 5.2 - Easter Island region 2013-07-31, 14:01 UTC, 9:01am CDT

Flossie Hits Hawaii, Hilo Gets Two Small Earthquakes!!! WATCH For More!!!!!

Flossie made landfall at Hilo, Hawaii today and left me with 2 earthquakes to report right on the island of Hilo just a few miles away. A 2.4 Struck 25 Miles South of Hilo at 8:29pm tonight Central Time: http://earthquake.usgs.gov/earthquakes/eventpage/hv60534496#summary AND there was a 1.7 earlier tonight at 5:33pm 25 Miles South Southwest near a place called Volcano, Hawaii. It is probable that there will be more earthquake energy at Hawaii and this big windstorm continues to travel along that line of islands out there in the Pacific where there is already a lot of Major Earthquake stuff present including that 5 to 8 Centimeter movement of Marlborough and Cook Strait connected to last weeks New Zealand 6.5 Earthquake.

I still want to say Santiago, Chile and Lima, Peru was already on the list, here, and don't forget Guam where they additionally might well be situated out ahead of the smallish amount of movement today at Hawaii. With all of this earthquake stuff going on it seems like it might be time to let the California Earthquake Prediction Evaluation Council know all of this is going on very soon. (And the National Council)

Tomorrow I will be working in Chicago on a TV Series that just started shooting there this week and so I will be writing with more updated information later in the week and might send out a few "Tweets" from the location tomorrow depending how things go there. I will be right downtown near City Hall and that Picasso and do not know any more than that having just received the E-Mail late tonight.

Be Watching for that major MegaThruster of up to 7.6 to 9.3 Richters!!! EQ Guy

Tropical Storm Flossie Making Landfall at Hawaii, Soon!!! Watch The Pacific for MegaThruster!!! 7.6 to 9.3!!!

It will now be sometime on Monday that Tropical Storm or Hurricane Flossie makes a direct strike at the Big Island of Hawaii with winds of 65 Mph and higher gusts! I always expect that when one of these like this with as much as 15 inches of rain strikes such a region as Hawaii, Haiti or Puerto Rico, in this case Hawaii. . . that there might ALSO be a Major Earthquake that shakes that exact epicenter right exactly as all of this severe weather and major windstorm is happening. Be Watching Hawaii to see if my theory there is of any value, because they should be getting at least say a 5.8 or 5.9 accompanying this huge windstorm with tons of rain in the coming 24 hours or so!

Remember the islands that moved between 2 and 3 inches during that New Zealand Earthquake the night of the Full Moon last week. . . because that will still now continue to keep moving and I want to continue to remember to watch Santiago, Chile and probably Lima, Peru where they could soon be getting this big giant MegaThruster Major Earthquake that could still be out there in the 7.6 to 9.3 Richters Range. This is not really exactly related to the business that is about to strike Hawaii, either, but Tropical Storm Flossie will increase the amount of ambient earthquake energy currently out around the Pacific.

I'm looking at prices to fly Quantas and Air Vanuatu for a possible Quake Chase to Port Villa/Luganville, Vanuatu where they might soon be getting some of this earthquake/tsunami that could still be coming! Just having some trouble figuring out if I can change planes in Brisbane and fly on to Vaunatu without a Visitors Visa for Australia which looks like it's quite difficult to obtain! Otherwise direct flights to Australia don't seem to be too much of a problem!!! Vanuatu Here I come!!!??? Thank-You for Reading!!! EQ Guy

5.4 Guam!!! Were We Watching Guam? Also: Marlbourough Moved 5cm East in New Zealand 6.5!!! It's Heading For Santiago, Chile!!!

I overlooked an earthquake that struck up around Eureka, California in yesterdays EQ Blog, although I am thinking it was in the 3 or 4 Richters Range and I want to right now report that a 5.4 just came in near Guam where we have been watching believe it or not! SO, do continue to watch for even a whole lot more shaking up around Guam where they might be not far from where Typhoon Soulik made landfall at Taiwan. Of course Mandalay, Banda Aceh, and out towards PNG and Vanuatu, too!!!

The latest news is that a town called Marlborough moved 5 Centimeters (2+ Inches) East in the 6.5 Earthquake at Wellington, New Zealand back on the day of the Full Moon. This story here also says the Cook Strait moved 8 Centimeters!!! (3+ Inches) @ http://tvnz.co.nz/national-news/quake-pushed-blenheim-up-5cm-east-scientists-5518386 and mentions that the fault line the earthquake struck on was 19km long running from Northeast to Southwest. That can indicate what direction the earthquake energy might be headed as it continues on past that region.

As a result of that info I have figured out that Easter Island or French Polynesia might be one of the next big Oceania Earthquakes that strike out that way, and I do mean BIG!!! These are actual official measurements as you can read in the above referenced article and it is now my opinion that there is actually at a MINIMUM, movement in the 5 to 8 Centimeter Range taking place out in the Oceania Region and it is most unfortunately heading DIRECTLY FOR SANTIAGO, CHILE right now!!! Will this be the 2013 Mega-Thruster??? Santiago, Chile? Valparaiso, Chile? California? Somewhere in between????? There could still be 7.6 to 9.3 Richters of Major Earthquake Out There!!! Keep Watching!!! EQ Guy

6.1 Strikes 30 Miles East Northeast of Luganville, Vanautu!!! Is Tropical Storm Dorian Coming?

There was a 6.1 that struck at Luganville, Vanautu during the night and it looks like just after 2am Central Time so just after Midnight Pacific 10 Miles East Northeast of Luganville with reports of strong shaking felt in that city. A search revealed Luganville to be the site of the SS President Coolidge which was a passenger ship originally built in 1931 and eventually converted to a Military Personal Ship which eventually sank one day as it was entering the harbor there at Luganville! SEE Wikipedia @ http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SS_President_Coolidge

There were also several small swarms that took place during the night including: 1.8 Hawthorne, 1.1 Hawthorne, 1.5 Fallon, 1.8 Fallon, 1.5 Anza, 1.1 Anza, California. As I passed these while reading all this early today those looked like they might be something, but now looking at them I might only say that there seems to be ever so slight movement that will need much more to become an issue in that region.

Finally we are now watching as Tropical Storm Dorian makes its way across the Atlantic and is approaching our East Coast with next week as the target. Reports have said it looks like a Hurricane that might strike the East Coast, but at least one report also said there might not be anything left of it by next week so we will pretty much have to wait and see as I spend the final days putting the finishing touches on my latest book that I know you will love titled Bringing Earthquakes To Life! Thank-You Again For Reading!!! EQ Guy

4.3 North of California City!!! Is California Going To Shake??? Keep Watching Mandalay and Banda Aceh!!! 9.3???

I really do not like to begin now saying that California might be inline for the possible "Mega-Thruster" sized Major Earthquake on the other side of the Pacific, but there was just a 4.3 that struck 30 miles Northwest of Beautiful Downtown Mojave and California City, California. Felt reports on this big medium sized California Earthquake were 20 from Bakersfield, 19 from Tehachapi, 2 from Carson 90746, and one each from Carson 90741, Diamond Bar, El Monte, Wrightwood, Los Angeles, and many others. USGS@ http://earthquake.usgs.gov/earthquakes/eventpage/ci11339042#summary

There seems to be an unsettled discrepancy between the China Seismology Outfit that is giving the recent China Earthquake as a 6.6 and the USGS who is maintaining it at a 5.9 and in all events they seem to agree that the major aftershock WAS a 5.6 striking just over an hour after the first one. The problem that I now have trying to efficiently track the remaining Major Earthquake Energy around the globe is that if it was a 6.6 then there may not be quite so much energy left to track you understand. However at 5.9 that could have been only a foreshock for a HUGE Earthquake that has yet to shake so we should continue to watch Mandalay, Banda Aceh, Taiwan, Guam, New Zealand and all the other Pacific Islands for what might shake next. It could be the 9.3 Mega-Thruster that we are watching for!!! Hopefully California was just an indication that there is major tectonic plate movement. . . but they could also be inline for something big, too! Thank-You for Reading!!! EQ Guy

Add Lima, Peru, Pacific Islands, and our West Coast, and Be Watching for the "Grand Finale"!!!!!

Big earthquakes such as those that struck at New Zealand hours before the full moon and the now great Xinjiang, China Earthquake that struck during the July Full Moon Window were both big earthquakes and the July Full Moon was fairly destructive and deadly, but it is possible we will now need to move on and continue watching for quite a lot more Major Earthquake Energy yet to be released.

I want to now say that this is probably the time to start adding those more distant places to the list of all the places we have been watching and pretty much all of them have had some shaking along the way, too! You may recall LIMA, PERU was one of the more distant places I said we would be talking about down the road, and we are now down that road talking about Lima, Peru. Of course islands out in the Pacific, but since Wellington, New Zealand got a 6.5 in all that, we don't really need to discuss too much more about the Pacific Islands besides to say keep watching out that way and add Hawaii, now.

Finally, it is time we start thinking about what all of this new major movement of the Pacific Tectonic Plate could possibly do for California and our West Coast. This is not the El Reno or Moore, Oklahoma Tornado anymore. . . we are now talking about a typhoon with 130 miles per hour winds that crossed Taiwan and has so far caused a 6.5 at Wellington, and a 6.6 near Sichuan, China and while we are talking about the fact that it could continue on causing big earthquakes keep our West Coast in mind and we will talk more about this later.

I'm going to guess the "Grand Finale" has yet to come!!! I was right before when in 2011 the "Grand Finale" was that big Japan Earthquake and while I'm sorry to be using the term "Grand Finale" because it is supposed to be the final act in a circus, there probably is a "Grand Finale" still out there! Be Watching and Be Prepared!!! EQ Guy

Huge 6.6 Major China Earthquake Kills 94 with Nearly 500 Missing!!! Keep Watching!!!

75 People now confirmed dead and 459 missing as a result of the big 6.6 Richters Major Earthquake that struck China with the July Full Moon high overhead! Although I do not know why the USGS posting of this Major Earthquake says 5.9 Richters. . . that is quite a ways off from all the news reports that have it listed as a 6.6 and I checked around everywhere and all the news such as L.A. Times @ http://www.latimes.com/news/nationworld/world/la-fg-china-earthquake-20130723,0,1693719.story AND The Mercury News @ http://www.mercurynews.com/breaking-news/ci_23706841/6-6-quake-northwest-china-kills-at-least AND a long list of others all ran banner headlines of 6.6 Striking China. Here is the USGS write up like I always like to post following such an earthquake @ http://earthquake.usgs.gov/earthquakes/eventpage/usb000ije3#summary

So, anyways the search results produced a dozen news sources with basically the same banner headline of 6.6, including Newsday and China Daily with one I see listing the death toll at 94!!! I will update if I come up with any leads as to why there is such a wide discrepancy. I scrolled all down through ALL the latest earthquakes and that 5.9 was the only notable one posted for that region back all through seven days, so that confirms the USGS side of the story and I do not recall having got an original so huge with a correction anywhere along the way either.

Finally while that now supposedly larger than ever expected Major China Earthquake did already happen under the July 2013 Full Moon we will now need to look beyond that for the continued movement of that shaky Indio/Australian Tectonic Plate for that probably still upcoming Major Mega-Thruster around Mandalay and Sumatra. IF that one was it, and there is an update coming on the magnitude, then of course it will reduce the chance of it but until then we will need to keep watching and our West Coast is out there in the distance along the shaky, shaky, shaky Pacific Tectonic Plate!!!!! Thank-You Again For Reading!!! EQ Guy

FULL MOON JULY 2013!!!!! LOTS of Earthquakes So Far!!! MORE To Come? As Big As 9???

The exact moment of the July 2013 Full Moon will be at 11:17am on Monday Morning Pacific Time on the West Coast of the United States. There have been one or two Major Earthquakes that have struck right at almost the exact moment of the Full or New Moons but it is not real common. In just the last couple hours there have also been several rather big sized earthquakes including a 5.9 at China and several others. The Full Moon Window started off very early when at 9 Minutes after Midnight early Sunday Morning that 6.9 later downgraded to a 6.5 shook Wellington New Zealand so hard that the USGS has 6 felt reports from there!

Major Earthquakes are starting to be sort of common that occur along with the Full and New Moons and since I have started following them in just the last months there have been far too many to list here now. There have even been a few that struck right at the exact moment of the Full or New Moon say around 11am Monday Morning, but you could say that earthquakes are common enough that it's bound to happen, anyways so I won't bother to look up the names of those besides to say to BE WATCHING. . . because we do know there will continue to be earthquakes during the July 2013 Full Moon which is right now!!! New Zealand, China, Myanmar, Mandalay, Taiwan, Japan, Guam, Hawaii and possibly even Alaska and our West Coast should all be watching and be prepared because the July Full Moon could trigger this upcoming Mega-Thruster!!!!! EQ Guy

6.9 New Zealand!!!!! FULL MOON WINDOW Starts Sunday Morning!!!!! WATCH For More HUGE Earthquakes!!!!!

I was just going to start this EQ Blog off by saying that it seems certain we will be getting a Major Earthquake in the coming hours when my phone started RINGING with a 6.9 Major Earthquake 120 Miles North of Christchurch, New Zealand. Offshore there and no felt reports as I am writing although it's only been 10 minutes ago. Do not know about tsunamis in that region so let's hope no tsunami. USGS@ http://earthquake.usgs.gov/earthquakes/eventpage/at00mq9szu#summary

The Full Moon Window as I was planning to discuss in this EQ Blog will begin at 11:17am on Sunday Morning Pacific Time, 1:17pm Central Time and as I usually like to say give it an extra hour or so just because they will sometimes strike like an hour or so early and this is where I might usually give examples. . . however right now you've just seen a fine example and so I will leave it at that. Also, New Zealand might NOT be done shaking. Of course just about anyone can tell you there could be MORE TO COME out there along that tectonic plate boundary that is very much a player in all of this new Major Earthquake Energy that we are watching here right now.

Seems very much like a sure thing that in the coming hours we will be witnessing one of those biggest Major Earthquakes of all time. . . that is if this New Zealand one hasn't already eclipsed that statement. I see it looks like 40 miles from Wellington and they are reporting a lot of damage @ http://www.stuff.co.nz/national/8945358/Big-quake-shakes-central-New-Zealand

So please keep watching especially the other side of the world. . . but Northern California is still under that one final alert through Monday, too!!! Thank-You Again For Reading and God Bless all my friends in New Zealand! EQ Guy

Accurately Tracked a Similar Plate Movement To Japan 2011 Earthquake!!!!! Christchurch, Too!!!!! Be Watching Mandalay!!!

In my EQ Blog on February 8, 2011, I published an Official Prediction due to the fact that a huge windstorm similar to the one that has struck at Taiwan struck Australia and that I knew there would be a lot of similar tectonic plate movement like the one we are presently watching! Here is a link to that Official Prediction and I want you to know that the date in the headline, February 21, 2011 is NOW the date of the 6.3 Richters Christchurch Earthquake where 185 died. @ http://earthquakealert3.blogspot.com/2011/02/official-prediction-for-81-richters.html

I knew that was not the full force of all the Major Earthquake Energy we were watching for and so I continued that alert by extending it until March 17, 2011. You will notice in Paragraph 5 at about 7 lines down on this computer anyways, I state that the earthquake will "Either strike Japan or push the tectonic plate further North" and as we all know on March 11 it struck Japan. Here is that "Continuation" http://earthquakealert.blogspot.com/2011/02/hello-here-is-copy-of-my-letter-of.html

Of course in all of the flurry of all of those hastily written alerts, I want to point out that it probably says it in there somewhere, but it was never real likely that huge earthquake would actually affect California. Not even the reason I filed with CEPEC, and NEPEC, rather that it was so HUGE of a potential earthquake that I felt it important to fulfill my debt to all my friends in California and on our West Coast first and most importantly of all. Not that Japan was overlooked, just that I myself do not have the resources to translate all my writings to Japan and only have one reader to my knowledge there. Granted today I might have many more by way of Twitter and of course I'm very sorry I was not able to do more in those 17 days I discuss in those writings.

Finally, I mention that we carefully followed watching for Day 19 because it was the number of days from Tomas/Fiji to Baja California Earthquake, and Day 19 after the landfall of Yasi actually BECAME the date of the Chirstchurch Earthquake! If it matters to anyone Day 19 will be July 30, but the distances we were concerned with back then were Fiji to Tijuana, and Queensland to Christchurch. Today we are talking about Taipai, Taiwan to Mandalay, Banda Aceh, and Sichuan, China and I do not feel Day 19 should be a factor right at the moment. On the other hand Day 10 will be Monday, July 22 and also the July FULL MOON!!!!! THAT should be one big earthquake with the full moon window beginning at 11 AM on Sunday Morning!!!!! Thank-You For Reading!!! EQ Guy

Will Mandalay Be Epicenter of Next Major Earthquake? Does Mandalay Have "Reverse 911"???

I also found the Kuril Islands and Kamchatka in the soon to be affected region, but today am looking closely at a city of a million people named Mandalay. I found this picture on Wikipedia showing Mandalay Hill in the foreground, but an awesome view of the mountains in the background there which could turn out to be the location of this earthquake.

Also should mention Mandalay Region and Shan State because they look like they are two different States or Provinces similar to Illinois and Missouri as opposed to saying Chicago or St. Louis especially since we know there is a huge earthquake coming. Someone along the way also commented that they might not have "Reverse 911" in a lot of those far away places and as a result it might not even be possible into the foreseeable future to even get such a message out to a lot of the people that might be affected. When you also include Banda Aceh, Andaman and Nicobar Islands, and Phuket you also have to wonder if they even have things such as cell phone service in a lot of those places. Sorry that is a question that I do not know the answer to, as well as if they even have 3G or 4G service, too.

Just sayin' it might not so much be the fact that we aren't getting this message out to possibly hundreds of thousands of people who could be in the path of the next MegaThruster. . . it's as much a fact that there just might be no such system in existence to deliver the message if we were going to want to. At some point there are many who would also need to evacuate such as a lot of the victims of the 2004 Tsunami would have needed to in order to avoid those huge waves that are many times bigger than some of the islands out there that were overtaken by waves.

Someday we might need to routinely evacuate a lot of them as a precaution when there is the potential for a Major Earthquake or MegaThruster heading for them such as there very well could be right now. Thank-You For Reading!!! EQ Guy

EQ Alert for Big Giant Mega-Thruster Major Earthquake Continues!!!!! Yellowstone/Wyoming Get 3 Shakers!!! Great Cascadia Earthquake Coming?

I guess I never yet actually figured out if there should be a hyphen in MegaThruster like Mega-Thruster, but what I do know is there is one heading for all of our friends on the other side of the world right now and still a small possibility it could also become this "Great Cascadia" Earthquake that a lot of folks have been talking about for some time now, too! Just exactly where did all of that upwards of 300 Richters of potential Major Earthquake energy that was the Alaska Swarm head off to. . . and where is it right now? Well, it's 300 Richters so I am thinking it is out there SOMEWHERE. Best guess there is that Typhoon Soulik pushed Taiwan up against the Asian Tectonic Plate with Taiwan possibly being situated along the far Western edge of the Pacific Plate and thus drawing that edge along with it and catching that far upper Northeastern corner of the Pacific Plate away from the North American Plate at right about there where all that Alaska Seismic Activity struck. THEN, now moving the Asian Plate due West!!! Watch Out Mandalay because according to my calculations and my theory of "Precision Plate Tectonics" all of this earthquake energy should be striking at or near Mandalay in the coming hours with Friday being Day 7 and the July Full Moon Window starting Sunday or Day 9. Sichuan China Earthquake was Day 10 after landfall of Cyclone Nargis at Myanmar.

Great Sumatra Earthquake and Tsunami struck at 00:58 UTC on December 26, 2004 and December 2004 Full Moon exact moment was December 26 at 15:07 UTC, so 14 hours, and 8 minutes before exact moment of December 2004 Full Moon. If this would duplicate which is not likely, that would be at around Noon Pacific Time on Sunday or 11:17am PDT to be exact. So let us be watching until then for up to 9.3 Richters of Huge Earthquake Energy for Mandalay and their neighbors. . . and don't forget the Major Alert for NorCal does not actually END until the night of the Full Moon next week, too!

There will also still be alerts for New Madrid and Yellowstone with Wyoming and Montana having just got 3 small earthquakes over the night last night. 5 Richters or more coming for them? Thank-You for Reading! EQ Guy
