Quoting: Simple27 I noticed that as well. It had seemed to calm down there for a while, at least as far as I could tell. I was thinking perhaps activity is picking back up slightly due to pressure transfer from the amount of quakes happening in California. When Cali had that larger 5.6 in September, Oklahoma responded with a 5.8. With the 6.5 earlier this month, there hasn't seemed to be as much pressure release in other parts of the US, at least not on a larger scale. Wondering if maybe that's what this was today, and perhaps that quake in New Mexico has something to do with pressure release as well. I don't know...just thinking out loud... |

Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Re: Earthquake Thread ~ Always Updated Solar winds over 700 Quoting: Goofy for God I had the most awful sleep last night. Lots of pain in my stomach and back to the point where I could not get into a position comfortable enough to fall back asleep for very long. At one point I actually threw up. I ended up taking Tylenol PM around 6am and finally got some sleep, but while this was all going on for hours, I wondered if something was going on externally. But I've never had this happen before over solar winds. I don't know, just thinking out loud lol. Quoting: Simple27 I also, completely out of the norm, had back pain all night last night that made it very difficult to sleep. An achey horrible pain. I then woke up and have felt like everything is SPINNING all day, with weird headaches and overall vertigo feeling.. It is horrible! And feels unlike anything I've felt before. Gotta be something in the air (atmosphere...??) Quoting: cgip Yes! Same here and very out of the norm. It was awful. I thought I was going to break down and cry at one point. It got a little better after I threw up, but not much better. Once I took the Tylenol PM I was finally able to sleep for a bit, but I haven't felt quite right all day. It was really weird. Sorry you experienced something similar. No fun. : ( ~*Ride the Wave*~ |

This is not a usual place. Can't find a reason for it. It is a very beautiful place!
It is near the Sangre Cristo fault lines but not on it.
Quoting: WhiteAngel Finally just looked at where it was on the map. You're right, it does seem like an odd spot. I guess near the fault is close enough?? Quoting: KickinIt I don't know. Been there several times and just not thinking it is that close. Never seen a quake there since I have been watching but who knows. This is from 1900 and 2.5 or higher on quakes. [ link to earthquake.usgs.gov] Quoting: WhiteAngel After doing a quick search, it appears that today's earthquake in Raton, New Mexico is just about 20 miles away from the 5.3 that happened in Trinidad, Colorado in 2011. That earthquake happened several hours before the 5.8 in Virginia: [ link to coloradogeologicalsurvey.org] Raton also appears to be a hot spot under the North American plate, along with several others including Yellowstone in Wyoming and Anahim in British Colombia. Long Valley, California is another: [ link to www.worldheritage.org] [ link to www.openhazards.com] Also in New Mexico are the Rio Grande Rift and the Jemez Lineament. Additionally, Raton sits on top of coalbed methane fields. From this link: [ link to profile.usgs.gov (secure)] "deep injection of wastewater from the coal-bed methane field is responsible for inducing the majority of the seismicity since 2001." Quoting: Anonymous Coward 69751638 No, this was further SW of Raton. Not the same area that they have been having a lot of quakes along the NM/CO border. Those quakes are due to major fracking operation in the area. The Cimarron quake from today, is near but not on a fault line and yes, this area is near a volcanic sites. Heck, most of NM is close to a volcano of one form or another. Just saying.... |

Sorry about that :) Think I must have seen it was felt in Raton, and somehow got in my head that was the location of the quake. Either way, as you stated most of New Mexico sits near or on a volcano of some sort. Whether linked to fracking or not, I'm a little surprised we don't see more activity in and around New Mexico given all the various geological sites throughout the area on top of the drilling activities. |
