5.3 Costa Rica Earthquake Along With Several Others There, Too!!! Where We're Watching, Too! Also a 4.6 Ecuador Where We're Also Watching!!! Keep Watching Now Seattle, Oklahoma, Tokyo, Etc!!!!!

Lots of earthquakes now coming in at the shaky Central and South America Regions we are watching! This could mean it will be time for those around USA to start shaking very soon, too, due to movement of the tectonic plates in both regions!!! Many in Costa Rica, Guatemala, and near Ecuador follow, but we'll need to watch Seattle and I'll finish with all that. . .

There was a fairly big 5.3 Richters Earthquake that struck Costa Rica Early Friday and would have been just after press time on Fridays EQ Blog, sorry but I thought I should run the story now due to it being directly on the straight-line we're watching for up to a 7.3 and with Costa Rica being so near that landfall of Hurricane Harvey in Texas it could strike at any moment as this one which was rated a 5.7 there shows!!! USGS Report, And Felt Report followed by an actual news story from Costa Rica, too:

THESE all seem to have shook early Friday, including and probably most notable the 5.7 there amidst all the others that all shook in about a two-hour period early Friday my time as the notation shows. Up to this point I haven't heard any more out of this region up around Iceland, but I'll sure update as it happens there:

4.9 Reykjanes Ridge 2017-09-01 06:20 CDT
4.8 Reykjanes Ridge 2017-09-01 06:11 CDT
5.7 Reykjanes Ridge 2017-09-01 06:07 CDT
4.9 Reykjanes Ridge 2017-09-01 05:59 CDT
4.7 Reykjanes Ridge 2017-09-01 05:37 CDT
4.7 Reykjanes Ridge 2017-09-01 04:34 CDT

As they talk about a landfall coming up soon of Hurricane Irma along Puerto Rico and Haiti Regions, there's even more to come! Also Hurricane Lidia made landfall at south of Mexico earlier this week so some shaking for Mexico, could be coming, too!

Now we might expect Oklahoma, Texas, New Madrid, and all those areas near Illinois such as Me, Indiana, and Ohio. . . and we should mention Yellowstone, Boise, and Montana because they tend to get them! Mostly Seattle-Tacoma and Tokyo, Honshu, Japan could get those big ones and as I mention at the top of todays EQ Blog, those areas of Central and South America and for 7.3 there, too, so be watching there!!! Note that the Texas, Oklahoma, Illinois Regions are the result of Harvey when it was a Tropcial Storm and not the same windstorm, so watch for lesser magnitudes there, too! Now try to enjoy your Holliday Weekend!?
