Does
it seem to you like there has been an unusual amount of seismic activity around
the world lately? Well, it isn't just your imagination. The Ring of
Fire is roaring to life and that is really bad news for the west coast of the
In a previous article, I showed that earthquakes are becoming more
frequent around the globe. In 2001, there were 137 earthquakes of magnitude 6.0 or greater and
in 2011 there were 205. The charts and data that I presented
in that previous article show a clear upward trend in large global
earthquakes over the past decade, and that is why what happened this week
is so alarming.
On Wednesday, a magnitude 8.6 earthquake
struck off the coast of
Normally we only see about one
earthquake of magnitude 8.0 or greater per year. The magnitude 8.6
earthquake was the most powerful strike-slip earthquake in recorded
history. If that earthquake had happened in the
I’ve
never heard of a strike-slip lateral earthquake of this great a magnitude;
especially under water. Preliminary assessment of the Indonesian quakes by
And earthquake activity along the
west coast has definitely been heating up in recent days.
On Wednesday, a magnitude 5.9 earthquake
struck approximately 160 miles off of the coast of
Early on Thursday, there were two
major earthquakes (magnitude 6.9 and
magnitude 6.2) in the
It is only a matter of time before
the "Big One" hits
Sadly, most Americans (especially
young Americans) can't even tell you what the Ring of Fire is. The
following is how Wikipedia defines the "Ring of
Fire"....
The
Pacific Ring of Fire (or sometimes just the Ring of Fire) is an area where
large numbers of earthquakes and volcanic eruptions occur in the basin of the
The entire west coast of the
At this point, scientists tell us
that the west coast is long overdue for a major earthquake. An article in
Time Magazine a few years ago stated the following....
California
has more than 300 faults running beneath its surface, including the massive San
Andreas Fault, yet the quake to end all quakes has yet
to occur. In 1980, a federal report declared the likelihood of a major
earthquake striking
Unfortunately, the truth is that is a
very, very conservative estimate. The west coast has always been
extremely unstable and it always will be. At some point there is going to
be a tragedy of unimaginable proportions on the west coast.
Just hope that you are not there when
it happens.
But it isn't just
According to the
And of course an absolutely
nightmarish earthquake could occur along the New Madrid fault at any time, but that is a topic
for another article.
As far as the Ring of Fire is
concerned, another major threat is volcanic activity.
One of these days, one or more of the
major volcanoes on the west coast is going to experience a major eruption
again. There have been signs that
Of even greater concern along the
Ring of Fire is
If
But it is not just along the Ring of
Fire that we are seeing a rise in volcanic activity. The truth is that we
are seeing a rise in volcanic activity all over the
globe. The following are just a couple of recent examples which have been
in the news....
*The volcanoes in
*Authorities in
*Ash is venting at the world famous Anak Krakatau volcano in
Something really strange is going on.
Most scientists will deny it or will
attempt to downplay it until they are blue in the face, but the truth is that
the trembling of our planet is getting worse.
If this shaking continues to get worse,
there are going to be some absolutely horrific tragedies in the years ahead.
So do you have a theory for why there
is so much seismic activity happening along the Ring of Fire? Please feel
