Category: earthquakes and volcano activity

Watch the video forecast here:

December 7 2011

Today we saw a 6.1M earthquake along the coast of Chile .. as well as the series of 5.0M quake swarms around the circumference of the ENTIRE ring of fire (and adjacent plates).

The time for vigilance is now — always have an earthquake/emergency plan ready — that is to say .. have a shelter in place plan… a LOCAL flee plan .. and a REGIONAL flee plan… this is in case your house or entire area become a hazard zone. Food, water, extra set of keys / have your BUG OUT BAG READY — just like Grover from SESAME STREET told you to !

see the sesame street “prepare your bug out bag” video here:

If you take this earthquake increase together with the large uptick in volcanic activity these past several months — this shows the global scale of the “problem” we are dealing with. Volcanic unrest from Guatemala to the highlands of Mongolia.. and everywhere in between… this is NO EXAGGERATION… thus leading to increased earthquake activity from the crustal displacement.

Speaking of “these past several months” — on a different, more tangible note.. Sakurajima Volcano in Japan erupted TEN TIMES within 12 hours yesterday!!

TEN LARGE ERUPTIONS in less than one day — location — south Japan.

Recently, Sakurajima volcano in Japan had the alert level raised (the threat of a large scale eruption with possible multiple KM ash fallout / pyroclastic flows) .

This is a compilation of shots over the past 12-24 hours at Sakurajima volcano — south Japan.

We continue to watch , and wait — last month the Japanese agency which monitors the area did a helicopter flyover with ground sensing equipment — measuring the rise of the mountain. The threat for a large eruption — with NOTICEABLE impact still exists for the foreseeable future.
