EarthQuake in Quebec 4.3M....

**Pharm Girl** · 03-16-2011, 01:04 PM

I was on my way to the Post Office...and all of a sudden.....I heard the rumble..then the place shook just like last June.

Who just felt the 4.3 Magnitude EarthQuake...epicent er is apparently in Hawksberry, Quebec??

Jenna_Grows · 03-16-2011, 01:13 PM

Holy! I bet that was scary

Jonas · 03-16-2011, 01:42 PM

didn't notice. but my office building is old and near the bus stop so it shakes violently all the time.

The Rev · 03-16-2011, 02:09 PM

4.3? That's it? Someone farts in L.A. and we get better than 4.3.

(of course, we do have alot of mexican food being eaten in SoCal, so that might be part of it.)

The Rev

Dandaweedman · 03-16-2011, 02:11 PM

It's the mexican food for sure.
When a big one comes Pharm girl... face the states then turn right and run.

The Rev · 03-16-2011, 02:16 PM

Don't you mean left? The Pacific coast is right, meaning she would be running toward The Ring of Fire.

(BTW, up until recently, I thought Ring of Fire was what happened when you reached for the lube but accidentally grabbed the Ben Gay)

The Rev

**Pharm Girl** · 03-17-2011, 03:06 AM

i just thinking that isn't it coincidental that we had a small tremmor...and there's quakes still happening in the pacific...??

2 different faults...erupting at the same time...just not sitting well with me...

we'll be heading towards the caves near the camp...anyone who can get here is welcome in!

Geeno · 03-17-2011, 03:20 AM

towards the caves but not in to them right? doesnt seem like a great places to be during a quake.

Qui-Bong Jinn · 03-17-2011, 04:16 AM

I was wondering what that was yesterday, house was rumbling for a minute or two. I'm in Ottawa. And I agree with Pharm Girl, two separate earthquakes on different faults in a week, can't be good. Maybe these are warnings of whats to come in 2012 lols

**SageTree** · 03-17-2011, 05:01 AM

No shakes over here.....

Pretty interesting tectonics are and I am sure they are somehow connected, when one wiggles....

If the next to worst happens they are saying the prairie provinces are the place to be. Only place in Canada that won't be under water.

Yeah, I'm with you on the ring of fire thing, sounds like it should originate in someones ass

**SageTree** · 03-17-2011, 05:13 AM

Well..... at least there is plenty of space for 7 billion people....

it's stirring up concerns about the Gentilly Nuke Plant in Quebec...also on a fault.

and i'm hearing that the Bruce Power Plant will have real difficulties trying to transport their Nuke's waste trought the St-Lawrence more than ever now.

Mikey · 03-17-2011, 07:52 AM

when i lived in qc i remember sleeping through a few earthquakes
hope your all a-ok

Two separate earthquakes?

yea i felt it here in ottawa, but i didn't know for sure that it was an earthquake until i saw it on the news.

Roach · 03-17-2011, 09:30 AM

way to go Stulic,

alot of folks don't associate a quake in asia to quakes on the east coast of America.

however it happens regularly.

fyi....

the 6 reactors in Japan that are melting down...have approx. 560 tons of fuel in them combined.
They also have combined "spent" fuel pools of 680 tons.
That's 1240 tons of radioavtive materials.

Chernobyl had 180 tons.

Roach · 03-17-2011, 09:34 AM

Yeah I don't know what's that got to do with anything, I just wanted to point out that it wasn't ONLY 2 consecutive earthquakes on two different fault lines, but hundreds scattered all over the world.
To be fair, this is not unusual either.

A much better list overview from the USGS:

Roach · 03-17-2011, 10:36 AM

Yea , I follow USC&GS for quakes. (used to do civil drafting/surveying).

changes that might effect the Yellowstone Caldera is 1 place I always check out.

South American activity often goes right up the chain to Alaska
