Carrying on from the previous thread.

I'll start this off with us waiting for, Bali’s Mt Agung to blow.

Over the last few weeks there have also been quite a few shakes'n'quakes happening along the section of the ring from Bali to New Zealand.

Cheers.

Do you live on the Ring of Fire?

As for the earthquakes in Italy we know something about it.

I just looked on the USGS site - lots of rumbling around New Caledonia in the last couple of days.

Thankfully I don't, but it does run around east and north of our little island here and it has been quite active of late.

The Hurricanes and Quakes thread covers other regions. ;-)

Cheers.

Zealandia's is a 5.0 Not much of a shaker. There was another 5 just north of there since your post.

I don't envy the people living on the Ring of the Fire. They live with the fearness and axiety.

We don't. Anything less than a mag 5 is a non-event. 6 and 7's will get us talking but they are so rare. In my lifetime I have lived thought about 6 events over a mag 6. Yes I have had to do some clean up, but generally we don't think about them. I've built houses with 50 feet of the San Andres and working on a high speed train that will go right over it. Sure we design with quakes in mind but we don't fear them.

we have plenty close here but almost all are small 2.0 to 3.5 normally.
we have a term. electric plant just 13 miles from here and we get about 4 or 5 a day at times.
I felt the 6.0 last year, my building twisted and the blinds flew out of the window
but no damage to speak of here.

I agree 6 to 7 you take notice.

We're not feeling a thing here Grant, but N.Z., Fiji, Tonga, East Timor and Indonesia are all being shaken by >4 magnitude quakes in this part of the world around us.

Cheers.

Ring of Fire looks pretty quite today. Except for the 4+ quakes around Tonga and a few in central America.
