Hi, guys.
I'm glad you're here.
Thank you for joining me once again.
And thank you very much to

Not too long ago, there was a manitude to 2.6 that
USGS revised to a 2.7, and then they changed the location.
It's actually a magnitude to 2.9.
And this is interesting because it's in an
area that's drawn out here in yellow.
This is an ancient volcano. Yes. St.
Francis Mountains volcano.
Eons ago, this used to be an island out there
in the middle of the ocean with an environment similar
to what they have there in the swamps of Florida.
And as the oceans dried up and
the plates moved, the continents moved.
Yeah, it dried up.
And this is a remnant.
This is the area that was originally an island.
This, more recently, has become the area of the new Med
Red fault system, also known as the real Foot fault system,
which you can see, hopefully, drawn out in red.
I downloaded data from two different monitors.
You can see here on the left, Rom and CACT.
They both come in as a magnitude 2.9%.
It's probably actually much larger.
But you can see here I shortened up the
seismic signature, and for some reason, during this earthquake,
it got so loud, it went quiet.
Those of you that have followed me for a while would
recognize that as magma is coming into a system, it gets
so loud that the monitors can't bring it up.
Let me bring this down.
And you can see here we got a magnitude 2.95.
Actually, this earthquake has rounded tops,
which means it's volcanic in nature.
There is one right here, tectonic.
And it was showing tectonic.
But as you know, rift systems, kind
of like the ring of fire.
Yeah, you often have volcanic eruptions.
So this is a little concerning, seeing
how this is an ancient volcano here
that we are showing movement of magma.
Lava is called magma when it's under
the ground, and they're deep, rounded tops.
Let me show you something else.
This image comes from USGS.
I've talked about the sharp points.
You see that one?
The plates are moving, tectonic movement.
And then right here, shallow volcanic
earthquakes identical to what occurred during
the time of this earthquake.
Now, if this signature had been shallower, it
would have had rounded tops, but it would
have been about half the size of that.
That would have been volcanic,
basically the same thing.
It means magma is on the move, rising up in the system.
So let's go back to the
location of where the earthquake occurred.
Now, in the past, there's
been several other earthquakes.
Last year, there was a 4.0.
And let me see if it was just
that was November 18 of last year.
And then this one too.
I think they changed the location. Why?
I have two different spots.
So does this mean that the roof system is on the move.
Because of the tectonics, the rift is
slowly widening up, recharging the volcano.
Over here, there's another area of an ancient volcano.
That one's called Hicks Dome right there.
I've talked about that one too, in the past.
You can actually see the crater, and there is
lots of die contrusion where it actually came up.
And we have die contrusion of lava in this area also.
So, just out of curiosity, I wanted
to see how far apart this St.
Francis Mountains volcano is from Hicksdone.
And it's all about 111 miles.
Supposedly, the New Madrid fault zone
is about 45 miles wide.
This volcano is almost 45 miles from the
edge of the New Madrid fault zone.
The best I could draw it out.
This here is what one of the monitors was showing
when I pulled the files just a little while ago.
Yeah, see, that's volcanic.
That is volcanic.
That is not good. Look at that.
All right, let me go to the other monitor.
This one here is CACT.
Let me go down here.
Okay, now this one has a little bit sharper points.
All right, so let's take a look
where these two different monitors are at.
This is CACT.
CACT is at Cat Corner, Tennessee.
So it's way off over here on the eastern
edge of the New Madrid Madrid Seismic Zone.
And the other one is Rosalie, Missouri. Excuse me.
Let me bring it up.
That one's actually closer.
All right, so the one is right here.
Okay.
And the other one is down over here.
This one over here on the far right showing tectonic.
And then the one on the left by the
volcanic field, that one is showing magma movement.
I couldn't get this one to work.
I try downloading the data, and I believe
this one, too, I couldn't get to work.
So we're going to have to keep an eye on this.
It just might be a fluke, a one
time thing as our Earth magnetic field weakens.
Yeah, we're going to see more earthquakes
and we're going to see volcanic eruptions.
This one at the top is Rosley, Missouri.
The one at the bottom, that is Cat Corner.
This is what it's currently showing.
There's been no aftershocks.
None whatsoever.
If this was a main shock for an
earthquake, you would definitely have more earthquakes afterwards.
After shocks, it's kind of like what's
going on there in South Carolina.
No main shocks, but lots of individual shocks.
So what are your thoughts?
Please put those comments down below.
