7.5 Hayward Fault Dream |
Hello everyone. Been away for a few days studying and stuff. Anyway last night I had a dream worthy of being posted. In the dream I was at the Hayward Fault visibly there looking at the fault, I also had a computer with me at the same time and was looking at the USGS activity map online. I walked away from the computer and looked down at the fault. There were a couple little kids there between 5-7 yrs old and I was explaining to them how earthquakes happen while pointing down at the fault when slight shaking began. I went back to the computer, which was only about ten feet away from us and looked on the map-it said 2.4 and it was on the southern part of the Hayward fault. About 20 miles away from that point on the map a larger red square appeared. It matched the size of a mag 5 on the map. (In my dream I didnt see a magnitude, just a square) The kids asked me what the larger square meant. I began explaining to the little kids that there was a small earthquake where we were(2.4) and that 20 miles south of us there was a larger one-between 5-5.9. (It looked like it was on the Calaveras Fault) At that moment in my dream something else very strange happend. Instead of a magnitude coming up on the list or a square popping up on the map, on the portion of the map that lists the magnitudes and locations beneath the map a sentence came up. It said "7.5 Hayward Fault coming soon." It was as if I was seeing the eq come up on the map just a few seconds before it actually hit because the kids and I instantly began running in the opposite direction to get away from the actual fault that we had been observing. We stopped running a few seconds later and looked back toward the fault. I woke up before the shaking began.
