September 2nd 2012 – next 72 hours

September 2^nd 2012 – next 72 hours – from evening, Melbourne, Australia time.

There have been a considerable number of M5’s and M5+’s in various places around the globe in the last 72 hours. There has been some serious movement (energy release and transfer) around the ROF (Ring of Fire), and inland in places, and the volcanic activity has been increasing in some locations and decreasing in some others.

The Philippines have endured many sizable quakes and a 20 inch tsunami was generated by the M7+ (recorded at Siargao Island). I feel this region may experience some more movement sporadically.

Some volcanic locations, once considered dormant/sleeping or otherwise, have shown some renewed activity; some have increased activity and some locations have registered activity unexpectedly. 

North America

I am going to repost a paragraph from a previous post, regarding the US inland states, as I feel this is still very relevant for the next (and past) 72 hour period. My feelings regarding the ‘travelling’ of tremor activity along the “L” I have discussed below ‘are still present for this time period.

“If you imagine an ‘L’ shape, from Washington/Montana, down to Utah/Arizona – then east across and including states such as Colorado, Kansas/Oklahoma, Missouri/Arkansas, Kentucky/Tennessee/Mississippi through to Virginia – there seems to be occurrences of M1’s, M2’s and the occasional M3. This pattern will probably continue – with the M’s popping up in these states sporadically”.

On and south of the Salton Sea (near Brawley, California South) and perhaps south down towards Mexicali (northern Mexico) may experience further movement of an M2, M3 and maybe an M3++.

Los Angeles through (and down) to San Diego regions will continue to feel M1+’s and M2’s, along the coastline and just inland (along the mountain ranges).

I’m still feeling that offshore south-west of Eureka, may see an M3+.

Northern California may see the odd M2 dotted from Washington State, down through Oregon to San Francisco.

West of Oregon (maybe at sea) may see an M3++. Oregon, inland, may feel an M3 (+?).

I have a mild feeling that Nevada region may experience an M3+.

East of Fresno (Yosemite National Park) may feel an M3.

North east of San Diego may see an M3 (+?).

Along the west coast of the US, I feel that we may see another M3+ off the coast of Washington (near the border with Vancouver).

North Island – may again experience an M3+ NE of the island; maybe also east of Wellington. South of Auckland, inland, may feel an M3, but this is not a strong feeling at the moment. (repeat of last post)

Kermadec islands may show up with some more movement of M3+.

Australia –

I am going to post a link here to the Australian Geoscience website, for you to look at all the current August tremors felt around Australia. The list is quite long and will take up too much space here to list. The regions I have speculated on have been experiencing a few tremors.

Western Australia, South Australia and NSW have all experienced M2’s and a couple of M2+’s. I still feel that Victoria will come into the picture very soon with an M2+(+?).

The M6.3 which has occurred south of Java, Indonesia (well below Bali), is exactly the location I thought this movement and relative size I felt was going to occur - mentioned a couple of posts ago.
Here's a  link to the National Data Buoy Centre's registering of the quake and its affect on water levels - http://www.ndbc.noaa.gov/station_page.php?station=53046&type=2&seriestime=20120903182500
