T&T Earthquake Thread

[sMASH]

More govt buildings sustained damage than private ones.. Lol

[aaron17]

Energency services on high alert.. multiple aftershocks? Via looptt.

[sMASH]

Felt a slight thing just now.. Very slight.

[Daran]

Has anyone noticed a slight shift in the level of their foundation? In my home gym dumbbells never rolled away from me but since the quake they're constantly rolling away (FML as it's annoying af).

i don't know about foundation, but i know Home Store in Barataria had a support beam that shifted about two inches to the left and made it look extremely unsturdy. IDK how dey even open the next day

[aaron17]

Yooo..imagine if an earthquake happen around night time while sleeping...scary...

[redmanjp]

yet another 8M earthquake in Fiji just hit a while ago. would that trigger another set of earthquakes? 2 earthquakes of that magnitude in 1 year, and in the space of a few weeks is a bit unusual.

[maj. tom]

Before that, there was a 6.6 last night in Japan, right after the hurricane there. So it remains to be seen how that will travel.

Not as unusual as you may think

According to the USGS -

https://earthquake.usgs.gov/earthquakes ... /stats.php

In the past 17 years there have been 6 years with greater than 1 8.0+ earthquakes and three years with none at all. And you can also see that 6 - 6.9 magnitudes are actually very common occurring once every 2.5 days on average.

[redmanjp]

ok but 2 within a month?

[sMASH]

Yeah, that is normal. Ring of fire tends to have a lot of movement.

South America had some strong ones after ours, so expect Alaska to get sumting too.

When all that energy is released, it will settle untill more movements build up more tension and would need to be disappated

The largest earthquake in the earth's recorded history was in Chile on May 22, 1960. It had a magnitude of 9.5 and lasted 10 minutes. It killed several thousand people and caused billions of dollars in damage in todays money.

the chilean science center in santiago has a simulator of that event.
A model house that rocks with the intensity.
I nearly sheit myself.

[shake d livin wake d dead]

if that dutchis guy is correct(which most likely he is), we could be in for another shake up

[maj. tom]

Alright, so Ecuador just got a 6.2mmw at 93.5km depth. Panama (5.6 depth 10km) and Chile (5.8 depth 92.4km). Three within an hour. That plate moving!!!

Japan>>Fiji>>Ecuador>>.....
So just be on the alert if we have a shake within a few days... or hours.

Disclaimer: I know nothing about plate tectonics.

In other words...the man was right

[Soul Collector]

Apart from the ring of fire and logically connected events across the globe, does anyone happen to buy into the HAARP weather manipulation and particularly ionic warfare which simply put could be an earthquake machine among other things.

I know it's going into conspiracy theories there but the wars being fought now are on a different scale than wars of the past. Population control, economic destabilization etc.

[maj. tom]

No. The energy of all the transmitters in the world combined cannot even compare to the energy released in an earthquake or a weather event. It's a usual case of people not understanding the complex physics and science, therefore it has to be a conspiracy.


"Stanford University professor Umran Inan told Popular Science that weather-control conspiracy theories were "completely uninformed," explaining that "there's absolutely nothing we can do to disturb the Earth's [weather] systems. Even though the power HAARP radiates is very large, it's minuscule compared with the power of a lightning flash—and there are 50 to 100 lightning flashes every second. HAARP's intensity is very small."

[Soul Collector]

^^ Yeah I agree that it would take a man made machine on a very significant scale to impact the atmosphere. Compared to mother nature it's probably a slight tickle if anything.

Ended up watching a random vid the other day with the guy who supposedly designed the HAARP technology and he was going on about its potential capabilities. One example he laid out was that they measured a severe drop in the ionosphere (sumn along those lines) as a direct result of HAARP over somewhere that had a major quake and was talking about how the government had been weaponizing the technology etc.

But just imagine for a sec if that is true in any way though, the power one nation can hold over the entire world. Terrifying stuff.

that's weather but what about earthquakes? the energy required to simply TRIGGER an earthquake isn't the energy that would be released from the earthquake- i mean drilling/fracking can trigger quakes

[maj. tom]

yeah it is know that drilling and fracking can and are a definite cause of certain earthquakes. But the man ask about HAARP.

the new update by dutchsinse kinda disturbing...so far he on point, just to wait and see what happens next

[Soul Collector]

Took it in dred, didn't know all those other bodies around the world friggin him up so. The man clearly onto something calling some plain as day.

Guess NA expecting some activity around 6.0 soon. I feel them bodies just toting because he making them look incompetent or something.

[shake d livin wake d dead]

6.4 in the phillipines....this mofo on point all the time yes..awaits the update tomorrow

[Rovin]

4.0 just now but i eh feel 1shit ...

[JUS4SHO]

Same here felt notting

[sMASH]

Slight ting,,, only because I was on my fone, I felt sumting... it was nothing really

[shake d livin wake d dead]

Nothing

Felt nothing in central
