Re: Another earthquake in the Gulf of California - any speculations

Hi Lowell,

I'll throw in my few bits on this one. I don't like what I've been seing in the way of quakes down in the Calexico area. I keep getting this impression that somewhere along the line from the quakes that focused just south of there to a triangular area from The Channel Islands to Coso and back to Calexico seems like its on the warm up for a moderate to large quake.

Then aside from that, the other area to watch is the North Coast. From my perspective it has a symbiotic relationship to Andreanof Island and as Andreanof has been quaking like crazy lately, I expect the No. Coast to hop into the action in a bigger way than we have seen thus far. So from off shore from Cape Mendocino over to Redding and back up to off shore Oregon, this should be the next triangle to be in the "watch" area.

I think overall, matters in CA may be on the upswing as usual for the Month of April.

Petra
