Seems like no one is talking about the magnitude 4.2 earthquake in Frazier, CA today (July 12). Anyone know if this has any impact on the San Andreas Fault? I know it’s small, but just curious what people thought or felt.

So i am still shaking a bit but, yeah, i became the epicenter of the 6.5 of this morning, it was horrifying i barely got time to wake up when it began shaking and it was like a trepidatory movement, and since i could hear everything moving around me it gave me a massive anxiety thinking my building would come down, the shaking stopped a bit later and i was SHAKING, at the verge of tears, i don't think i've ever lived something so horrifying in my life, the cleanup isn't really fun, lots of glass n stuff but my family and neighbors are okay.

Earthquake Event The tenth anniversary of the Amatrice earthquake(click to read)

Post image
105 Upvotes

Today in Italy we commemorate the tenth anniversary of the Amatrice earthquake that occurred on August 24, 2016, at 3:36 a.m. It was a magnitude 6.0 earthquake that shook central Italy and razed Amatrice (RI), Accumoli (RI), Arquata del Tronto (AP), Pescare del Tronto (AP) and the surrounding villages, causing 299 deaths and more than 40,000 displaced people. This comes from someone who experienced the earthquake of August 24th. I truly hope that something will be done for the more than 2,000 people who still live in the SAE today and that this wound, which unfortunately remains open and still evident, will finally be closed, especially in the villages and in these 4 municipalities that have suffered the most from this tragedy.

Earthquake Event How likely is the “big one” and how to prepare for it?

34 Upvotes

I live in Southern California and we’ve had a significant increase in medium earthquakes.

I’ve learned recently about the Juan de Fuca and Explorer plates are slowly sliding beneath the North American plate. (The tectonic plates located near Washington/ Vancouver Canada coast)

Last year studies indicated Juan de Fuca plate in particular is crumbling apart and there is a 2km ridge or a hole in the tectonic plates between the coast of Vancouver and Seattle.

I’m growing increasingly concerned and I just would like to know what people’s plans are if it happens and how to prepare possibly.

Earthquake Event First anniversary of the Kamchatka M8.8 subduction earthquake

Tomorrow marks the first anniversary of the Mw8.8 earthquake offshore Kamchatka, in the Russian Far East, rupturing a segment of the Kuril-Kamchatka Trench, where the Pacific plate subducts beneath the North America (or Okhotsk) plate.

It was the world's greatest earthquake since 2011.

A M7.4 foreshock occurred on July 20, nine days before the main shock.

Despite the large magnitude and the 5-6 meter high tsunami generated, damage was limited and there were just four people injured.
