Hi All,

Now all of you will be treated to finding out how difficult it is to match sounds with quakes, but identifying which ones sometimes is easier. This is a post I made, though I had the area considerably off and my window expired. But therein lies some interesting words that made this mornings Coso Junction 4.7 quakes a match with these ear tones.....Petra

Triple Junction & Markleville to Mammoth Quakes

Hi All,

Yesterday evening just after 5PM I was treated to another unusual ear tone event. Both of my ears were giving me similiar sounds at the same time and ended at the same duration. I was a little puzzled and then I was talking to Don about it and he mentioned is forecast for off the coast of Oregon. So I went there just now to find it and see if it had any similarity to my expected northern quake. Here's his forecast:

Earthquake Forecast Off Oregon Coast
Posted by Don in Hollister on June 12, 2001 at 13:43:01:
Magnitude: 4.5-6.0
From: 06/30/2001PDT - To: 07/05/2001PDT
Location: 225 miles west of Eugene, Oregon
Lat: 43.4N - Long: 127.7W - Range: 70Km

My ear tones last around 5 seconds so that puts the distance for me at the north coast area, and to the right Markleville to Mammoth. So the ear tones do not support his prediction.

As I can only hear certain magnitudes at given distances, each of these probably quakes would be in the 4.0+ range and should occur either within minutes or hours of each other.

This should be good watching to see what actually shows up. But being that I have a distinct window problem, I'm going with 6/30 to 7/15.

So if his quake is coming, then there remains the possibility if it is higher than a 4.0 I may indeed hear it before it arrives, so I'll let you know if anything happens.
