@Frozenoem , what is causing all these earthquakes in places they NEVER use to happen?  😱😱😱

 

Climate Change? 🤔

Shucks my background doesn’t cover everything only enough to be dangerous.

 

check out -

Earthquake 

 

I only know what to do when the ground starts shaking, go under a table And hang on to it.Door frames or out in the open hunker down and hang on.In a car fasten seat belt, and go when shaking stops.

 

To date I’m lucky New England has relatively inactive plate lines.BUT, man in his infinite wisdom NOT!

Is screwing around with Mother Nature between climate change, mining, drilling etc,

@Frozenoem , then @MsStretch posted about one that happened here in VA!!!  😱😱😱

 

Lol, I was feeling safe.

 

I know Florida had a few RECENTLY.

 

Oh well, when it is my time to go, I am ready. Seems nowhere is safe from Natural Disasters anymore.

 

Take Care,

@Winter2024 , yes, Willie Mae and Giorgio are notorious nappers.  I think they say cats can sleep up to 18 hours/day. They become more active when the sun goes down.

 

Everything here popping out green overnight.  Bushwhacking season over. 🚶 We used to be able to go through April, almost May.  The good ol' days.  Last hike/bushwhack was Easter to a couple of old homesites in SNP.  And it rained mid-hike.  Climbing back up a mountainside slipping and sliding on wet leaves and rocks while navigating through greenbriar was great fun!

 

NOT.

Honored Social Butterfly

My memorable moment at SNP was similar ,campground was 60* with 2 dogs and the RV, Went into the bush down 20 feet and it was like a rainforest.

Immediate temperature climbed to 80-90.

 

We were all panting by the time we hit campground and A/C was turned on. The dogs were tired by the time we returned, couldn’t have been more than a 3-hour bushwhack.But it was better than parking in Cherry Hill for a month.

 

During the flooding and heavy rains. Mud up to here, might be confusing my songs but, we were both singing about the big muddy when we returned. Shenandoah is on my bucket list for future if it allows.

Hey, @DaveMcK @Winter2024 @Frozenoem @Therapist4u @LeeS4949 @MsStretch @LaDolceVita... and anyone who happens to come by...

At my age I thought I was finished experiencing "firsts," but this morning around 10:25, there was a 4.7 mag. earthquake! The epicenter was in NJ, but quite a few areas felt it. I was in the bathroom when it started and at first I thought there was something wrong with my heater and it was going to explode. The noise was incredible. Sounded like a huge, unbalanced washer full of stuff. The whole house was shaking. I thought to myself, Is this an earthquake? In all my 75 years, I actually have never felt an earthquake before.

Lasted about 30 seconds and gradually settled down. I looked outside...nothing unusual. Was very perplexed until about 15 minutes later the TV news people started breaking into programming with the news that it was an earthquake.

For such a magnitude, it was surprising that there had so far been no reported injuries or damage.

So, my weekend was off to a rather exciting start! 😲

 

Anyone else feel that? They say it was felt from MA to MD.

@catwoman I am glad you are OK and no damage done.  I have felt smaller quakes.

Hi again @catwoman500

I found this interesting coincidence...on the same day as y’alls earthquake : The New Madrid Seismic Zone started rocking early Friday morning. The U.S. Geological Survey recorded a magnitude 2.1 earthquake at 12:17 a.m. April 5. The tremor was centered along the Mississippi River in Lake County, Tennessee & had a depth of 4.8 miles.

The New Madrid Seismic Zone is still active and dangerous! The New Madrid Seismic Zone is still active and dangerous!

 According to the USGS, the New Madrid Seismic Zone is the “most seismically active in North America east of the Rockies.”

Hi @catwoman500

 I wanted to share this too:

 https://youtu.be/cr19xmw68wc

A Hunterdon County homeowner roughly 5 miles from the epicenter showed a house camera clip from of the moment the 4.8 magnitude earthquake struck New Jersey Friday morning, sending tremors up and down the East Coast.....it shows mild shaking before quickly moving to more intense tremors as the entire house shook.

Hope you’re doing well!

As always... Take care!

Ha, Allen! Cute meme.

And I did see some of those clips on the news last night. Crazy! Loved the animals' reactions, like WT_?

Have a friend in western MA, that was talking about it.I think the east coast is on a fault line, Didn’t feel anything in Maine for this one.

 

But, in the past I have felt a couple last year and in years past.Not of major intensity.

 Back in the 90s living in Winslow Maine I turned in one night. The bed and dresser were against a wall. The next morning i woke up and the bed,dresser,and i were in the middle of the room! I thought," I guess they dont make dreams like that anymore."

@LeeS4949  That is funny!

 maybe someones watching & felt guilty ....

@Therapist4u 

 

Seems  that AARP still reads those little surveys that offer you to gripe via text or email, they DO respond and actually check upon the webpages.

 

Heck I was thrilled when someone actually fixed the you got mail alert that was dated 2021 or 2022 for years.

 

It also seems to help if you remain active on the boards, otherwise you become a ghost poster drawing total blank on the name, it’s in the about pages under help or it was. Surprised me when I read posts from people long dead or just gone back to work.

PM’s on the other hand stop at 11:30 pm, 

 

@Winter2024 

 

Review all messages and you shall find your answers to all questions, fair warning changing your username with similar frequency as longies might delay response time.

 

Time to await more snow, feed fire and and try to finish use of my thumbs, iPhone.

Hey  Froze! @Frozenoem  

Thanks for replying...& trying to help!

This problem has been ongoing for AARP only...all other websites I use have no delays like this....unless for example, they’re down for maintenance.

 

Like many things here...they get fixed....only to break again.....& ends up being worse sometimes!

Anyway,

Stay safe....&... ‘WAHM’ LOL!!

Take care!
