Look at the Ring of Fire. That quake in Canada has set off some sort of reaction!!! Quakes are popping off left and right!!

2 buoys blinking already

[link to www.ndbc.noaa.gov]

God Bless!

several buoys now

Not. Long way from Yellowstone.

Just heard on TWC - a tsunami warning just issued!

Holy shit!!!

Tons of buoys going off!! West Coast

Doom sandwich?

[link to www.tsunami.gov]

Holy shit, 7 buoys now!

um, i looked at the map, it's not that far from yellowstone at all.

Shit. Too much doom happening at once.

DO you guys feel that, I feel it man I can feel it.

7 buoys going off now!
[link to www.ndbc.noaa.gov]

but then again why would buoys on West Coast be going off already?? Wouldn't it take hours?

a little odd

i dont think it is

What ever you say.

Puget Sound area here, don't frighten me with talk like that. Shit!

Damn, listening to the Grateful Dead
and not paying attention.

"I wish I was a headlight on a Northbound train."

We will soon (very soon) all become a headlight. ;-`)

FWIW, a forecaster (meaning a psychic) has said that the word "Seattle" has cropped up repeatedly over the past day or so. The guy was on target about 2 months before the quake hit Japan in 2011, but I'm still a skeptic.

What site are you guys using to see info on the buoys?

now its 6

oh wow... what is going on!
