Aftershocks in LaPaz

gnukid - 11-1-2007 at 10:06 AM

We had tremblor aftershocks at 6:30am in La Paz. The movement was shuddering for 2 seconds and not significant.

It's still not showing on the monitors.
Only 2 seconds, eh ?
Are you sure your over-70 neighbors weren't celebrating their anniversary ! :lol:

Yep, shook here and not reported as of 1 pm on the US or Mexican site.

A rumor is going about that the 6.3 earthquake epicentered 55 miles NE of La Paz a few weeks ago caused the walls of one of the large buildings on Mogote to move out of alignment and one end of the building to sink. How significant the movement and sinking were I've no idea.

Does anyone know if this is true and is there more information available on another thread, perhaps?

Try this site, it doesn't show any thing in the La Paz area

There was definitively a movement but not significant, we were all getting going for bicycling this morning to enjoy the cool morning on the malecon in la paz and the neighborhood shook and everyone in our group reported the same shuddering feeling. Though it was not reported anywhere, since we do not have measuring devices here, I am reporting officially here we had a tremblor of about 2-3 at 6:30am. I consider any small tremblor a good sign of release of pressure. So lets celebrate.

We've had a couple tremors here too last week which kind of alarmed people here cause it was around this time last year our nasty quakes began...release of pressure is good!

The Mexican site reported the quake as a 4.5, about 6 miles north of Todos Santos.

No mention of any quake activity here on the USGS site.
A 3.1 magnitude quake in Wyoming is listed, but doubt you could have felt it here.:?::?::biggrin::biggrin:

huh

mulege marv - 11-4-2007 at 08:40 AM

i cant find it either, but i assure you we didnt imagine it.

vandenberg - 11-4-2007 at 10:00 AM

Heh Marv,
Maybe time to change brands.:P:biggrin:

quake

mulege marv - 11-4-2007 at 04:40 PM

no need to change, i stick with what works for me. really this had to be a 5. something it was very violent with a loud rumble also, and to early for patrons to really be at their peak !

vandenberg - 11-4-2007 at 05:24 PM

Was just kidding.:P
Mulegena also mentioned this quake in a different post.
Makes me wonder how come it didn't make the USGS list.:?::?:
