Don't get me wrong, I'm not predicting anything. Just conversation.

Don't think anyone said it was.

I was actually just reading about this. Being in Seattle, I'm a little worried, since we're due for the big one. However, I don't think Berkland is predicting anything up here, or even anything that large, for that matter.

What he's saying makes sense. Whether or not it happens is another story.

There was a 7.2 quake in Calexico last year on easter.
Shook pretty good here in San Diego.

There is an apartment building across the alley that has a jacuzzi on the roof.
It shook so hard that all the water splashed out of it. I guess being on a roof of the building has something to do with that too....

yup the effects of earthquakes can be felt more on higher level of buildings/ structure. just like the effects of wind on tall buildings can be felt on higher floors. the water splashing is called a "seiche". its like a tsunami in an enclosed space.

what the geologist is saying makes sense, we actually have never discussed those factors in our seismic class. groundwater and earth tides... im getting a little concerned now being near the shore in socal.

maybe putting an emergency survival kit tonight wont be such a bad idea. ill spend time with my family towards the east tomorrow until spring break is over in a week.

Super Moon and tide swells + San Andreas Fault + Japanese earthquake =

Gearcraft · 03-18-2011, 08:14 PM

oh well.... i just remembered that the san andreas and san jacinto has some of its branches running along the east where im supposed to go... my instructor also told us that the main utilities that we use come from the east. if those faults rupture we are in big trouble. the freeways and the utility lines will get cut off.

People may want to destroy the east coast, but even nature wants to destroy the west. I to <3 LA though.

whatever happens in la, stay in la lol

iseegreen · 03-18-2011, 08:48 PM

Geologists have been saying that the fault that run under LA has been overdue for a big earthquake for years now...it's old news and only a matter of time.

yeah that's true and this time you have considerable factors that the amount of stress being stored in those faults would soon release all of a sudden.

when i feel the ground shaking i better start driving east.... and fast...

There's a super moon coming tomorrow. Also don't forget the millions of dead fish that suddenly washed up on the west coast at redondo beach.... And the stranded whales that came ashore few weeks ago in San Diego. All the signs are pointing to terror ahead. I'm buying earthquake insurance first thing tomorrow morning. Its Got a 25k deductible but hell it could be worth it if this really hits.
