I have been away from my Internet connection and my forecasting program for the past few days and was not even aware that the Haiti earthquake had occurred. I just learned about it an hour or so ago.

The EM Signals (not ear tones) that I detected were likely associated with that approaching earthquake. I am just getting started on my analysis of the earthquake and plan to post a report here similar to the one posted for that recent California earthquake.

If you look at my January 11, 2010 Earthquake Advisory posted to this board you will see that there is some strong longitude peak activity around 74 W to 77 W. There is a good chance that it was a warning regarding that approaching earthquake that occurred around 73 W. I did circulate an international Earthquake Advisory by E-mail shortly after I posted the one to this bulletin board.

As I believe that I said in other postings, perhaps 50% of the time when these strong EM Signals are detected, the expected earthquake will occur within a few days or a week at the most. The other 50% of the time it will usually occur within a few weeks to a few months.

On November 29, 2009 I posted an Earthquake Warning here after I detected an extremely strong EM Signal. And I have never been able to match that signal with an earthquake. It was an example of the 50% that are more difficult to get an accurate time window for. And I will be checking to see if that signal matches the Haiti earthquake. Unfortunately, at the present moment it looks the Haiti earthquake will one of the 50% ones that occurred within a few days of the warning signals.

So, the general answer to your question is,

“Yes. These signals ARE usually associated with approaching earthquakes!”

(In some cases they could be related to volcanic activity or a few other phenomena.)

These are personal opinions.
