Wyoming Quakes Mapped
From Chris Cralle

Hello Jeff,
 
Many thanks for you continued efforts.
 
I was very intrigued by the 2 hour shake fest you reported today. So I decided to map out those locations.
 
Using an excellant map maker I found online I created these images showing the exact representation of the plots given for the 8 Wyoming quakes from today.
 
Of course, with the given +/-10Km error in the horizontal location, they could've been anywhere really.
 
In 1.7.0310KZoomedPlot the numbers 1-8 represent the chronological order in which they occured. In the other plots the small grouping of white dots shows the location.
 
Oh well, let's hope she really doesn't blow her top. Feel free to share these if you wish.
 
Chris

Regarding the articles:
 
Scientists Closely Monitoring Yellowstone
<http://neic.usgs.gov/neis/bulletin/>Earthquake Swarm In Wyoming
<http://www.rense.com/general47/wy.htm>Wyoming Quakes Mapped
 
There are excellent interactive world and US maps at
<http://wwwneic.cr.usgs.gov/>USGS National Earthquake Info Center, Boulder
<http://wwwneic.cr.usgs.gov/>http://wwwneic.cr.usgs.gov/
where you can click on quake markers for zoom and specs. The initial world map is color coded by depth and the markers are sized by intensity. By clicking the Latest Quakes tab at upper left, you get a US map of markers sized by intensity and color coded by Last Hour-Day-Week.
 
Watching these maps daily over time, it appears that regular clusters in Washington state, and particularly in Utah, are slowly migrating towards Yellowstone.
 
There is a USGS site at
<http://volcanoes.usgs.gov/yvo/>Yellowstone Volcano Observatory
<http://volcanoes.usgs.gov/yvo/activity.html>http://volcanoes.usgs.gov/yvo/activity.html
but it's a monthly summary, mostly spun to mollify all concerns. Keep in mind that if anything serious did happen, the sensors would be toast. It would be kind of pathetic to be sitting on your fat duff, cussing because a page won't load, while megatons of rocks descend over your head.
 
One likely scenario is utter devastation from pyroclastic flow within a 375 mile (600 KM) radius (there goes Denver) and 5'-10' of ash out to 750 miles. No, you can't "deal" with the ash, it is microshards which fatally lacerate lung tissue (you suffocate on your own blood). If you started from as far away as eastern Nebraska, with an early warning, you might be able to escape.
 
If anyone is interested, I threw a set of "quick watch" frames together in one page at <http://members.aol.com/GregLauver/G-watch.html>G-watch
<http://members.aol.com/GregLauver/G-watch.html>http://members.aol.com/GregLauver/G-watch.html
which includes
N3KL Solar Activity Monitor (the old Majestic Research summary reloaded)
the YVO
the USGS NEIC
the NOAA Space Environment Center, Space Weather Now (very nice summary).
 
The coding for my frames page is quite simple. Feel free to pilfer & modify. You can download and run it right from your hard drive by opening in your browser.
 
Regards,
 
Greg
