Andie Posted October 2, 2019 Report Share Posted October 2, 2019 On Monday three of those quakes center near Snyder south of the Panhandle. The largest being 4.0. One centered south of Ft. Worth at 3.2. I didn't feel it. These occurred off of the Balcones Fault that runs southwest to northeast. Most geologists say that Texas can not create a quake beyond 4.0 but it is debated. 1 Quote Before You Diagnose Yourself With Depression or Low Self-Esteem,...First Make Sure You Are Not In Fact, Just Surrounded By A$$holes. “If I owned Texas and Hell, I would rent out Texas and live in Hell.” Gen.

Andie Posted October 22, 2019 Author Report Share Posted October 22, 2019 More quakes. This time 3 in Western Texas. Somebody tell me what the hell is going on? That's 7 quakes. https://www.star-telegram.com/news/state/texas/article236478923.html Quote Before You Diagnose Yourself With Depression or Low Self-Esteem,...First Make Sure You Are Not In Fact, Just Surrounded By A$$holes. “If I owned Texas and Hell, I would rent out Texas and live in Hell.” Gen.

That's 7 quakes. https://www.star-telegram.com/news/state/texas/article236478923.htmlLow solar activity causes earthquakes to increase. Same as in 2008-2011. This round should be worse if that theory holds. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anti Marine Layer Posted November 4, 2019 Report Share Posted November 4, 2019 These are small in magnitude compared to earthquakes in California. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andie Posted November 4, 2019 Author Report Share Posted November 4, 2019 Yes indeed. However, mid continent quakes are unusual. If these are not fracking related, then it's odd to see them grouped like this.

We're at the low of Solar Cycle 24 and the first little spot of a young Cycle 25 has popped up. 25 will still be a low spot cycle like 24, so the GSM cycle has probably begun. 1 Quote Before You Diagnose Yourself With Depression or Low Self-Esteem,...First Make Sure You Are Not In Fact, Just Surrounded By A$$holes. “If I owned Texas and Hell, I would rent out Texas and live in Hell.” Gen.
