4.2 Northern California Earthquake With LOTS of Other Earthquakes At That Same Epicenter on Tuesday, COULD Mean Major Earthquake Might Be Next There!!! San Francisco??? Los Angeles???

I'm going to now make this a banner headline story and more could be coming in, if so this WAS the big story as of my original press deadline!!! Here's a 4.2 Richters Earthquake that struck just offshore from Eureka, California and you can see Eureka on the list of nearby places with one felt report listed from there but I won't bother posting that. Here's the USGS on that and remember, there's been LOTS more at this region and looks like Major Earthquake could be coming!!! As the big list that follows shows. . . they're getting bigger!!!

2017-10-18 01:30:10 UTC 41.182°N 127.167°W 10.0 km depth

Surprised at all of the small shakers that struck that usual Offshore Eureka, California Epicenter, there, and I'll be watching there for more, too, as the October New Moon arrives soon:

MORE Shaking out there at Tonga, but I went back and checked and did not see any big one that preceded all this, so I must say this could be a big giant swarm, although that would seem unusual for Tonga:

2017-10-17 06:27:59 (UTC-05:00)
10.0 km

Two smaller earthquakes out there along our East Coast at New York and New Hampshire:

5.0 km
1.9
5km NNW of Sanbornton, New Hampshire
2017-10-17 21:41:25 (UTC)

So, the New Moon Window which is right about now almost CERTAIN to become a factor in a lot of shaking somewhere. . . will begin at Noon on Wednesday, and the exact moment will be Thursday, October 19 at 2:13pm Central Time, 12:13pm Pacific Time with the window running into Friday and we KNOW things will be shaking!!!!! So be watching San Francisco, and Northern California!!! And Go Dodgers!!!
