Hi Steve,

Last night I had approximately 10 short duration, but intense right ear aches from 8:30 to 10PM. This may or may not have anything to do with pressure building in the area in so far as quakes are concerned, but could be storm related.

This occurred twice before. The first time the ear aches were followed by nearby earthquakes in the 3.0 - 3.5 range, but the second time nothing happened. So this is my third time around and I really don't know what to make of it, expept to say they are painful. Insofar as locations, my right ear always indicates activity east and south of me.

At 9PM last night there was a quake in Yountville, but I don't think the magnitude would have been high enough to count into this ear ache event. I don't have a cold, no inner ear problems and no tinnitus either. Today I feel fine and have had no ear related events of any kind.

So, we shall see whether this experience is a two time loser, or a two time curious event. I'm hoping for the latter, rather than the former and something in the "feel" catagory. LOL
