4.0 (non-shaking) EQ near Palm Springs | |
Anonymous Coward (OP) User ID: 1009069 United States 08/06/2010 02:01 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I'm in Palm Springs. Just heard a huge, long boom and thought a big EQ would be coming but there was no shaking that I felt at all. USGS says it was only 12 miles away. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 1009069I now see there was a 4.0 off the coast of Western Mexico, a 4.6 off the coast of Costa Rica and this 4.0 Palm Springs EQ all about the same time (within a half minute from each other.) Any others hear or feel the PS EQ? |

It was the first time I ever actually reacted to an EQ S-wave when I heard the boom thinking this was going to be a big EQ but then nothing happened, there was no shaking at all. It's just very weird that such a big EQ so near and I don't feel anything. I then see there were others near the same time (my mistake: not a half-a-minute from each other.) Are they related? They might be, they might not be but I can surely make a comment about it so STFU. |

I am positive what is on the cams right now is a loop. Everything was going crazy and then all of the sudden everything was calm and crystal clear. I saw an explosion but to keep from getting screamed at for saying so, it could have been one of the rovs. |
