Entire USA Still Shaking Hours After Ecuador Quake by Nobody: 11:25pm On Apr 17, 2016
A very unusual and frightening thing is taking place throughout the USA right now: The entire land mass of the country is vibrating. It began with an explosive magnitude 7.8 earthquake in Ecuador at around 7:58 PM Eastern US Time and has not stopped since.

The entity which monitors earthquakes throughout the country is the US Geological Survey (USGS). They run the Advanced National Seismic Sensors (ANSS) which is the “backbone” of all the earthquake monitoring throughout the nation. The ANSS has about eighty-eight seismographs nationwide.

As shown below, with the exception of two seismographs that are not presently functioning, seismographs in the entire United States are showing ongoing quivering from the Ecuador Earthquake! ALL OF THEM! It’s almost as though the earthquake shook the planet and caused it to wobble!

While we may not actually feel the vibrating, the seismographs confirm it is taking place; but it is doing so at a depth we cannot feel. Perhaps at the same 10 KM depth where the Ecuador earthquake took place. While that vibrating goes on, it is loosening things beneath us.

As these vibrations continue, it is highly likely they will trigger other earthquakes throughout the US. Areas which are prone to earthquakes, are more likely to experience new ones as this vibrating continues. As such, folks in California, Oregon and Washington should be prepared for a possible earthquake tonight or tomorrow.

Take a look for yourself at the 88 images below, taken from the ANSS Backbone at 11:16 PM eastern US time on April 16, 2016. The earthquake took place at 7:58 PM EDT and the seismographs have not stopped shaking since that event!
TSUNAMI PROPAGATING THRU PACIFIC OCEAN FROM ECUADOR EARTHQUAKE
0

A massive, magnitude 7.8 Earthquake struck Ecuador, South America this evening and generated a Tsunami wave. The image above shows the propagation of the wave throughout the Pacific Ocean.


Folks in its path should prepare to move to higher ground.

The Pacific Tsunami Warning Center did issue a Warning for a Tsunami from 0.3 to 1 meter in height, for Ecuador, Peru, Columbia, Panama and Mexico, but says other areas may just see a non-damaging increase in tide level.
Since the effect of Tsunamis varies greatly depending upon the ocean floor where they come ashore, we believe it best to advise the public of the propagation of this Tsunami so the public can make its own choice as to whether or not to move to higher ground.
To properly calculate the time, be aware that the earthquake took place at 19:58 EASTERN US TIME which is 23:58 UTC. Using these times, you can now compute the arrival of the tsunami in your area based upon your time zone.

We have no idea of the power of the forces at work within what we laughingly call Our World. Powerful as we like to think we are, humans are no match for the awesome power of the natural world. Stay safe.
