3.9 Richters Earthquake That Struck Southwest of Catalina Island Late Monday Pacific Time!!! Now With The Felt Report, Too!!! Also Some Other Seemingly Unusual Shaking Around California!!!

Here's the felt report from the 3.9 Catalina Island Earthquake late Monday/Early Tuesday at Earthquake Central@ http://eqalert.blogspot.com/2017/10/39-richters-earthquake-just-west-of.html

The USGS Report looks like it was changed in the moments after this big earthquake struck because I was immediatley awoken by my phone and looks like that must have been around 10pm Pacific Time, so here's the USGS Report with the list of nearby places and the felt report has been moved to Earthquake Central link is above:

3.9
47km SW of Avalon, California, (Catalina Island)
2017-10-24 07:00:50 (UTC)

3.9 - 47km SW of Avalon, California
2017-10-24 07:00:50 UTC 33.106°N 118.747°W 4.9 km depth

Nearby Places:

30.4 Miles NW of San Clemente Is. (SE tip), CA
55.3 Miles SSW of Torrance, CA
59.0 Miles Southwest of Long Beach, CA
71.5 Miles SSW of Los Angeles, CA

Now seems like it might be probably that when you combine that Catalina Island Earthquake with this next one, you now have rather big interesting earthquakes striking in some more unusual locations and all this COULD be leading up to a big one also in a more unusual location! Wherever that might wind up being! And similar to all the earthquakes foreshocks at Ecuador and Columbia last year, this could be ONE OF THOSE, too:

2.5 - 15km NNE of Planada, California

Now I want to add here that Monday's Edition of this EQ Blog was VERY POPULAR!!! So, therefore I don't do this too often, but here's a link to it for folks who didn't read about how this could SPELL DOOM for San Francisco if this Major Earthquake strikes there!!! @ http://earthquakealert.blogspot.com/2017/10/this-upcoming-potential-major-san.html

There is one felt report from the smaller which was reportedly felt in Quito:

4.4 40km ENE of Puyo, Ecuador 2017-10-23 17:08
3.5 23km NW of Santo Domingo de los Colorados, Ecuador 2017-10-23 09:40

Here's one of the USGS Reports:

3.5 - 23km NW of Santo Domingo de los Colorados, Ecuador
2017-10-23 09:40:57 UTC 0.095°S 79.296°W 10.0 km depth

Nearby Places:
Santo Domingo de los Colorados, Ecuador 13.7 mi) NW

Quito, Ecuador 87.2 km (54.2 mi) W
Tutamandahostel, Ecuador 89.6 km (55.7 mi) W

HERE'S that felt report and as you can see we got at least ONE from Quito, Ecuador!!!

3.5 - 23km NW of Santo Domingo de los Colorados, Ecuador
2017-10-23 09:40:57 UTC 0.095°S 79.296°W 10.0 km depth

City...........Region....Country.....................#.....Km
Santo Domingo, Pichincha, Ecuador.....1.....24 km
Quito, Pichincha, Ecuador.............1.....89 km

I just noticed while posting those Ecuador Earthquakes that one of the "Latitudes" was something like a ZERO point one or if it was me measureing around Wisconsin that would work out to hardly little more than a few feet from the EQUATOR there!!! Because less than a "Minute" which is what the zero probably is, usually means somewhere basically on the same lot or about the same acre depending on the longitude. You can even see it in the headline for that felt report!!! See the "0.096 S." That would appear to be extremely close to the equator! I'll have to recheck that and have it in a later EQ Blog!!! For now this edition is going to press right now really late, and congratulations Los Angeles Dodgers. . . WON Game 1 of World Series Tuesday Night!!! Now onto Game 2 on Wednesday Night!!!!! And Watch for that 2017 World Series Earthquake, too!!!!!
