The Earthquake Thread...
Look at all of the earthquakes in Arkansas recently.

It fits with my theory that New Madrid goes big by the end of May.

I've noticed that Arkansas is having 5-10 earthquakes a day... albeit ones under 4.0.

That New Madrid fault is no longer asleep.

Maybe.
But if you live through it, you could probably find a job in St. Louis or Memphis...

Of course, I'm not a seismologist, so I have no idea if they are FOS or not.
The main things that make me question that are: (a) there is no way to accurately predict earthquakes, and (b) IIRC, seismologists don't really understand why the New Madrid fault has produced such violent quakes in the first place, especially considering that the area is so far from any tectonic plate boundary.

But I hope they're right. I want no part of any of that shit. At all.

The cause is apparently wherever FEMA is holding a training session.

They've actually had hundreds of them over the past 6 months... even before all the birds died. Some people believe it has something to do with drilling.

Yeah, all the yokels around here are convinced it's from fracking, despite every scientist, geologist, and seismologist swearing that's impossible.

The other half of the yokels are pretty sure that the end times are upon us.

The morning after a quake, my facebook feed is filled with those two themes from relatives and people I went to high school (not college) with.

You are in the upper northwest part of Arkansas... so New Madrid wouldn't effect you much, I'd assume.

It's things like this that make me raise an eyebrow.

FEMA ordering $1Billion in dehydrated foods in an expedited fashion... something's up and they aren't sharing what, methinks.

I'm from Conway and my entire family is spread out between Conway, Greenbrier, and Guy, which is the epicenter. My roots down there are why it's constantly in my Facebook.

The way i always understood it, a bunch of small quakes was a good sign because energy was being released instead of storing it up for one big one. Im no geologist though. Where is Randy Marsh when you need him?

I grew up in So. Cal., so I experienced several earthquakes there, but I wasn't really expecting to have earthquakes occur here in Arkansas. It happened when a thunderstorm was bearing down on us, so I originally thought the shaking was from that.

Some geologist from the U of A was just on the local tv news and mentioned the possibility that fracking could have played a role.

I was just reading that the area averages more than 200 quakes per year.
