    To hell with California, how about relieving some of this pressure in Oregon.

    3 small quakes outside of OKC, good news for California; waiting for ‘the professional’ to weigh in on it. This is what we’ve been looking for to relieve the pressure in Cali - hopefully he says that Cali is not still on alert for a larger than 7.1!

    He’d been saying look for 4’s and 5’s in the Midwest - these were all sub 4’s.

    Oklahoma has earthquakes from oil and gas drilling. When those huge underground caverns collapse you have a healthy sized earthquake. They made their bed now they can sleep in it.

    These are more than likely tied to the pressure in California - which ironically the ridgecrest area is a multi Perforation location due to natural factors(volcanos); but to your point the “Devils Kitchen” is a an area where they have a geothermal production area at which they drilled deep to produce steam to turn turbines, located not too far away from the “devils kitchen” is a mining operation.

    If you want to talk about sleeping in a made bed talk about ridgecrest.

    Then there are those who claim HAARP is behind this as well...

    If you don’t already have a supply of fresh water (1 gallon per person; per day. For at least one week - or 7 x members in household) then I would suggest going to get some today. It will last for 1+ year if you buy it by the gallon at the grocery store - generally around $0.99-$1.29 per gallon. Non perishable canned food or freeze dried food is important as well.

    I have not yet heard anything from credible sources specifically warning us about a large earthquake - but at this point with everything going I believe 1 year is in the realm of possibilities for us.

    Stay smart, stay safe, and god bless.

    What’s interesting to me is the USGS has labeled the sub M5’s in Washington and the M5 in ridgecrest today as red - which is typically only reserved for quakes of M6+

    Almost as if it is their way of trying to tell people paying attention “these are significant”, without actually saying so and causing what could be unwarranted panic.


    Waiting to hear what Dutch says about these...
