Do planetary conjunctions, together with the sun, influence volcanic activity on Earth and in the rest of our solar system? Fascinating.

Essential Tips for Earthquake Safety: A Must-Read Guide
Hello everyone,
I hope you're all in good health and high spirits. If you're like me, you've probably found yourself thinking about the unpredictable nature of life, especially in recent times. Amidst the hustle and bustle, it's easy to forget that we're at the mercy of Mother Nature too. Living in California, the land of golden coasts and equally golden opportunities, I've often been reminded of the lurking geological hazards like earthquakes. And let me tell you, no amount of Hollywood glamour can cover up the very real, unsettling tremble of the Earth beneath your feet.
Tumblr media
So, what do we do? Do we live in fear? Absolutely not. Knowledge is power, and the right preparation can make a world of difference. In fact, I recently came across a fantastic article that really puts this into perspective. The article, titled "Bhukamp Se Bachne Ke Upay in Hindi", serves as a comprehensive guide on how to prepare for and react during an earthquake. Although the article is in Hindi, the universal safety tips it covers are incredibly useful, no matter where you live.
1. Secure Heavy Items
Make sure heavy items like bookshelves, televisions, and appliances are securely anchored to the wall. Imagine a bookshelf toppling over during a tremor—it's a disaster waiting to happen.
2. Identify Safe Spots
Know your safe zones within your home or office—under sturdy tables, against internal walls, and away from glass windows.
3. Prepare an Emergency Kit
Your kit should include non-perishable food, water, first aid supplies, flashlight, batteries, and essential medications. Throw in some cash too; you never know when you might need it.
4. Have a Family Plan
Discuss with your family members about where to meet and how to communicate in case of an earthquake. A little pre-planning can avoid a lot of stress later.
5. Don’t Use Elevators
If you find yourself in a high-rise building during an earthquake, avoid using elevators. You don’t want to be trapped in a small box hanging by cables.
6. Drop, Cover, and Hold On
The golden rule during an earthquake is to drop to your hands and knees, take cover under a piece of furniture, and hold on until the shaking stops.
7. After the Shake, Inspect for Hazards
Once the shaking stops, check for gas leaks, electrical hazards, and structural damage. Also, keep an eye out for aftershocks.
Life is too precious to leave to chance. As someone who has experienced the unnerving reality of earthquakes, I can't emphasize enough the importance of being prepared. Even if you don't live in an earthquake-prone area, these tips can be life-saving for you or someone you know. I highly recommend reading the in-depth article "Bhukamp Se Bachne Ke Upay in Hindi" to expand your knowledge on this vital subject.
Stay safe and take care, folks!

Seismic Forecasting: The Science Behind Earthquake Prediction
Seismic forecasting, also known as earthquake prediction, is the science of predicting earthquakes, their likelihood, and their impact. Earthquakes are a natural disaster that can cause significant damage to life and property, making it essential to develop accurate and reliable forecasting methods. Seismic forecasting is a complex and multidisciplinary field that involves geology, seismology,…

Cats as Earthquake Predictors
Every time there's an earthquake here in California, right after "Did you feel it?", people ask "Did your pets act crazy just before the quake?"
My cats tend to sleep through the moments before earthquakes and sometimes through the actual quake. If you expect them to monitor seismic rumblings in the Earth, they do a terrible job of it. They do what they normally do: sleep like the meatloafs that they are.
There's the story of two earthquakes in China. Before the first one, people saw animals acting crazy. So they evacuated their homes. When the ground did indeed shake, many thousands were saved.
In the second case, the animals went about their business. Then the quake hit. Thousands died.
I think the first story might well be urban legend. The only time when I saw a rumbler affect animal behavior was _after_ the Quake of '89 when all the cats in our apartment complex went into hiding. We did not see them for a few days.
The USGS page that asks people if they felt it does not include a question about animal behavior. The experts don't put much stock in the stories. Neither do I.

Eureka 6.4 Earthquake
Large earthquake.. North California.. 2.. 3.. around Eureka.. hit hard.. dinner table.. the quake will reach down to San Francisco. I had a vision I had opened my eyes. I was looking at myself and her holding hands, quietly, as if out of a cartoon the spirit of me popped out to look around, it was odd? Then from the left a wave. Suddenly the ground shook. The cabinets shuttered violently. Then…

Season 5 will end with the Harringtons coming home, stepping over rubble and small fires, they climb up their broken stairs, passing by a crying and bandaged Steve crouched in his doorway, grabbing some clothes from the cupboard and leaving again, stopping only to tell Steve to bring in the pool chairs so they don't crack in the sun.

Electric Earthquakes
“In 2003, the Journal of Scientific Exploration published "Rocks that Crackle and Sparkle and Glow: Strange Pre-Earthquake Phenomena" by Friedemann T. Freund, PhD. It's a ground-breaking testament of strange phenomena that precede large earthquakes. 
It's a long and diverse list: bulging of the Earth's surface, changing well water levels, ground-hugging fog, low frequency electromagnetic emission, earthquake lights from ridges and mountain tops, magnetic field anomalies up to 0.5% of the Earth's dipole field, temperature anomalies by several degrees over wide areas as seen in satellite images, changes in the plasma density of the ionosphere, and strange animal behavior. 
To illustrate how such diverse phenomena can have a common physical cause, EU advocate and Thunderbolts contributor Matt Finn expands on a Wal Thornhill essay demystifying the how and why the electric force plays a leading role in Earthquakes.”

*quietly disgruntled geology grumbling*
#my ramblings#shut up finlay#this is not about valid criticism of the lack of action in the past but more a criticism of the ‘not calling evacuations already’#or anything formalized yet#because you cannot predict where the magma will flow before erupting#it began to effuse from the northeastern rift this afternoon#which they can then call tho as far as i know the lava is fairly slow towards that region (ish) and there is a bit more wiggle room#yes without formal action from usgs and local/state government any evacuation will be woefully inadequate#also ‘signs for months’ isn’t necessarily an indicator of an eruption#earthquakes and deformations happen regularly on any active volcanic region but don’t always mean an eruption is imminent#if it did yellowstone would be insufferable constantly#anyway this is mostly me grumbling about expectations put on scientists that don’t actually work#lack of action or anything from the governments and officials however is absolutely an issue and something to change in the geosciences#acknowledge the discrepancies between demographics and the risk factors affecting them#counter them as best as possible#ie do not just leave native hawaiians or anyone else unable to afford plane tickets and whatnot as sitting ducks#call an evacuation should the flow encroach to a risk#then actively assist and make sure anyone who wants to/needs to evacuate has the means to do so#there isn’t much else anyone can do other than observe the flow and attempt loose predictions of its behavior#and call evacuations#unfortunately there’s no actual ways to stop lava from going where it wants
