If that happened in California or New York the evangelicals would be saying it's God's punishment for their sins.

Thankfully no tsunami and no major damage reported yet. I saw that scientists think this may be a aftershock of the earthquake from 10 years ago

3.7 only 2 miles from our house. Both dogs jumped up to run around and are both still a little freaked out. Shook us pretty good.

Just last night I was talking to people who went to the Dominican Republic. They said something like “The other side of the island is French or something.” To which I said…

“Yeah, it’s Haiti. Where they have all the earthquakes.”

1200 people dead.

Barely a ripple of notice here in America. Too busy pretending to care about a place no one has cared about in two decades.

Fracking?

[vimeo]https://twitter.com/adamcaskey/status/1 ... 1829884934[/vimeo]
Extensive fracking throughout the Permian Basin (Texas & NM)...

I felt the quake in Roswell...

A friend in Carlsbad also felt it while on the toilet!! LOL

Now reporting over 2300 dead and as many as 2800 buildings destroyed. At least 30 major aftershocks have been recorded. Turkey had a similar earthquake in 1999 that killed more than 17,000 people

There was a second 7+ rated quake - Unsure if this was an aftershock, or another fault!

Two 7+ quakes in 24 hours is biblical!!!

My daughter near Yokosuka woke up along with her entire family to this shortly after 4 am. She said it was a very long earthquake. By the time they made it to their oldest son's bedroom it was still shaking.

Japan has an excellent warning system, although it doesn't do a lot of good so early in the morning, but what can you do?

Theory Explains Why San Andreas Fault Is Quiet Near LA


Researchers may have discovered why California is overdue for a major earthquake along the southern section of the San Andreas fault. It's been 300 years since a quake of a magnitude of 7 or greater erupted from this section of fault stretching east of Los Angeles from the Salton Sea to Parkfield. That puzzled scientists who studied rocks collected near the fault and determined it had produced a major earthquake every 180 years, plus or minus 40 years, over a millennium. The seismic silence just didn't make sense—until scientists determined that the last six major earthquakes had likely coincided with high water levels on Lake Cahuilla, a massive water body that dried up centuries ago, per the Washington Post.

The videos coming out of Japan of both the earthquake and the tsunami are otherworldly. I just hope that all the precautions they take paid off because it wouldn’t be surprising if this was a mass casualty event.
