Right after an M6.3 in same area

Thread: Santa Cruz Islands Earthquake 6.3

Too early to know for sure...also depends if this was a side-to-side rubbing quake or an over-under quake. Forgive me for not using the proper technical terms :)

Very shallow. 33 km (20.5 miles) set by location program

Thanks!

That is crazy. Did not get an email update on this one yet.

now saying 7.3

They had to feel that one!

Reminder: we are at the last leg of illumianti overtime. There is no more rebuilding, as a small scale event like hurrucane Sandt show

Lot's of activity in the region.

Now look at the 6.9 above it....now look at the 6.0 accross from it...now imagine the next spot for another 8. to make a perfect square... Hello California!



Blair Robertson regards his predictions as experimentation. Here is one I got on my Email...days ago!

Psychic Prediction

1. I predict an earthquake in Samoa within the next ten days.
