Hi, guys.
I hope you're enjoying your day.
There was a magnitude 2.5 earthquake there in Kansas at 4
22 a.m.
USGS doesn't report anyone feeling this earthquake.
Either they slept through it or it did wake them up and they
went back to sleep and didn't give it any thought
when they got up this morning. Using Google Earth, Here's
the location of that 2.5 earthquake.
Yeah.
It's easy to recognize where there's probably a fault going
from South to North.
There was a magnitude 2.7 back in May on the eighth, and
its depth was the same as today's, five kilometers deep,
which would make it about three miles in depth.
So I am sure people that were in this area most likely felt
it, but either they didn't report it or they just simply
forgot about it when they got up in the morning.
It's kind of a sparsely populated area.
Also on May, the there was an earthquake also close to this
location and the same depth, five kilometers.
You can see the river along here.
Like I've talked about, fault lines often follow along rivers
and streams.
Actually, there's two areas with rivers in this location.
I actually have access to an earthquake monitor.
Oh, not too far from this location down there by Manhattan
City. And I'm going to see what the seismometer showed for
that time.
There's a earthquake signature from that location.
It actually comes in as a magnitude 2.56.
And we'll look at the spectrogram.
Yeah it really shook things up, didn't it?
Afterwards, there was another small earthquake, but they're
not reporting that one for some reason right there.
That one comes in as a magnitude 1.84
And we'll look at its spectogram.
And then just a little while ago, when I pulled the file,
looks like another very small one that comes in as a 1.7
And that one they're not reporting
all so.
That earthquake may have been induced by maybe some blasting (fracking?)
or something like that, because the majority of the signature
comes from, well, close to the surface, but not at the surface,
but it does come in between one and 10 Hertz.
I can pull this over for you.
There you go.
And there is a signature for the 2.5 again.
Well, this one comes in at one to 10 Hertz.
So did you guys feel any of these three earthquakes, even
though USGS didn't report two of them, they did happen.
And if you thought you felt one, maybe thought you were mistaken
or going crazy?
Well, you were not.
So here on the bottom on the right is that monitor.
And we'll go to that location of that earthquake, which was
today, the 2.5.
There we go.
So once again, if you did feel this earthquake and just didn't
bother to report it, you forgot all about it because it was
in the middle of the night, very early this morning.
Please put it down below.
Thank you again for watching Thank you for subscribing.
Please stay safe, and I'll talk to you later.
God bless you all.
Bye.
