Now TWO Earthquakes Both 4.6 Have Struck Northern California!!! Expect More Earthquakes, Too!!! And Maybe a Bigger Shaker Out There, Yet, Too!!!

The first of these was really huge news early on Thursday when my phone all of the sudden rang! Hasn't been doing all that much ringing these days with not all that much stuff going on, but now the exception being all the Severe Winter Conditions. . . and California is surely shaking once again!!! As I was getting all this prepared for this edition of my blog, ANOTHER came in and could hardly believe 4.6 again!!! Yes, close to same epicenter as earlier Thursdays 4.6 both offshore from Eureka and here's a local STORY@ https://www.nbcbayarea.com/news/california/Earthquake-Northern-California-Coast-Eureka-USGS-477648893.html Followed first by complete updated list with all three of them now and then onto Utah next:

3.0 17km NW of Petrolia, CA 2018-03-23 03:18
4.6 22km NW of Petrolia, CA 2018-03-23 03:09
4.6 West of Humboldt Hill, CA 2018-03-22 16:24

There have now also been quite a number or earthquakes striking Utah!!! Here's a now abbreviated list of just those over 2.5 there, followed by USGS Report on the biggest of them all:

2.6 1km NW of Loa, Utah 2018-03-22 21:40
3.1 2km NNW of Loa, Utah 2018-03-22 13:21
2.6 1km NNW of Loa, Utah 2018-03-22 12:38
3.0 2km WNW of Loa, Utah 2018-03-22 00:27

Here is the one I was talking about and I knew there was a USGS Report on it here somewhere:

3.2 - 2km NNW of Loa, Utah
2018-03-22 13:21:33 UTC 38.421°N 111.657°W 16.9 km depth

Nearby Places
1.4 Miles NNW of Loa, Utah
112.1 Miles South of Payson, Utah
161.9 mi) South of Salt Lake City, Utah

And this one struck me as interesting, too, especially since I stayed in a motel in this town while working nearby at their water treatment plant there:

0.8 - 6km WNW of Imperial Beach, CA
2018-03-21 19:59:45 UTC 32.608°N 117.175°W 10.1 km depth

Nearby Places:
3.7 Miles WNW of Imperial Beach, CA
5.6 Miles South of Coronado, CA
6.8 Miles SW of National City, CA
7.5 Miles West of Chula Vista, CA
8.7 Miles WNW of San Ysidro, CA

Some pretty serious reports of snowfall amounts along our East Coast with probably the most serious being confirmation of something like TWO-INCHES an hour falling at one place! Snowfall amounts going on 2 feet at a lot of places, although up to this point haven't heard snowfall total amounts and I'll post them as soon as I see them!!! Meanwhile the earthquakes will continue, so keep watching for them. . . and especially California and West Coast!!!
