I guess we will have to either here from someone in England or watch and listen to the news on this. Or just wait for them to determine this manually ...but i have been watching these sites for some time and i have never seen an erroneous earthquake this large in the United Kingdom...ever.

If its a "false" reading it sure is a big one. How could a "false" reading be so big. I can see a small "false" reading but a big one ?

Is there anything like a Shell oil or BP refienery in the area that if exploded could possibly give this type of reading?

It is possible. Check this historical data out.

THE 1931 DOGGER BANK (NORTH SEA) EARTHQUAKE Britain


----------------------------------------------------------​----------------------

PARAMETERS

DATE: 7th June 1931

TIME: 00:25 (UTC)

DEPTH: 23 KM

MAGNITUDE: 6.1 ML

FELT AREA (2-3 EMS): 1,580,000 KM2

MAXIMUM INTENSITY: 6 EMS


----------------------------------------------------------​----------------------

DESCRIPTION

This is the largest UK earthquake for which a magnitude can be calculated or reliably estimated; it is thus rather fortunate that the epicentre was offshore in the Dogger Bank area. The felt area encompassed virtually the whole of Great Britain, the E of Ireland (there is anecdotal evidence of it being felt as far west as Londonderry), N France, Belgium, the Netherlands, parts of NW Germany, Denmark and SW Norway. The outer limits might be better determined had the event not happened in the middle of the night. Damage in Britain was reported from 71 different places, mostly along the E coast of England. The strongest effects were observed at Filey, Bridlington, Beverley and Hull. The top of a church spire was rotated at Filey. Although there were numbers of cases of chimneys and plaster being damaged, at no place were the effects sufficiently severe to be assessed unequivocably as 7 EMS. Slight damage was caused as far afield as Sudbury, Suffolk, Barnsley, Yorks. and Wooler, Northumberland. The complete collapse of a factory roof at Staines (Surrey) was attributed to the earthquake, though there is some doubt on this issue.

There were some geotechnical observations: rocks fell from the cliffs at Flamborough Head and there were falls of cliff at Mundesley, Norfolk. There were also some curious reports of lights seen in the sky at the time of the shock. The shock was reported as being felt on board ship by a number of vessels in the N Sea.

One woman in Hull seems to have died of a heart attack as a result of the earthquake

Not a false reading. The event at 08:04 was picked up in Finland and Norway as well.

It´s Saturday the Jewish Sabbath so the news is always slow on these days. Seeing that the Jews control the media in the Usa and Britain.
