M3.5 Rattles Venus, TX (South of DFW)

Today, 19May2018 at 00:45 hrs UTC (7:45pm CST), a M43.5 earthquake shook parts of the Dallas/ Ft. Worth metroplex.  The epicenter, in Venus, TX, is just South of DFW but the light shaking was felt as far North as Hurst, TX.

TXESP’s EQ1 and Raspberry Shake (HP4.0 Hz filter) seismometers recorded some wave arrivals – predominantly the P, S, Surface, PcP and PcS interpretations (see below).  NOTE: once again a time shift can be seen between the first arrivals on the RS and the EQ1.

Today’s event was approximately 3 polar deg away from station E1TX.

M3.4 Willow Creek, CA

Today, 16May2018 at 22:01hrs UTC (05:01pm CST), a gentle M3.4 earthquake shook California.

TXESP’s EQ1 and Raspberry Shake (Band pass 4.4 to 9.0 Hz filter) seismometers recorded some wave arrivals. Today’s event was approximately 25 polar deg away from station E1TX.  NOTE the similrities between the two seismograms,

M4.0 Crescent, Oklahoma aftershock

Today, 15May2018 at 13:40 hrs UTC (08:40am CST), a M4.0 earthquake after shock occurred, again, in Crescent, OK.

TXESP’s EQ1 and Raspberry Shake (LP 1.2 Hz filter) seismometers recorded some wave arrivals – predominantly the P, S, Surface, PcP and PcS interpretations (see below).  Today’s event was approximately 6 polar deg away from station E1TX.  NOTE the similrities between the two seismograms; further, review that the 15May2018 seismograms are very similar to the 14May2018 seismograms.

M4.1 Northern Oklahoma

Early this morning, 14May2018 at 07:25 hrs UTC (2:25am CST), a M4.1 earthquake shook , Crescent, OK.

TXESP’s EQ1 and Raspberry Shake (LP 1.2 Hz filter) seismometers recorded some wave arrivals – predominantly the S, Surface, PcP and PcS interpretations (see below).  Today’s event was approximately 6 polar deg away from station E1TX.  NOTE the time offset between the two seismograms.

Pecos, Texas after shocks

Yesterday, 12May2018 at 21:04 hrs UTC (4:04pm CST), a M2.9 (mb_lg)earthquake shook Pecos, TX.  Overnight, a M2.8 after shock event occurred at 07:45hrs UTC (02:45am CST).  TXESP’s EQ1 Seismograph, again, did NOT detect any wave phases; however, the Raspberry Shake (HP 4.0 Hz filter) recorded some wave arrivals – predominantly the S, Surface, PcP and PcS interpretations (see below).  Today’s event was approximately 7 polar deg away from station E1TX.

More Texas Earthquakes

Earlier today, 12May2018 at 21:04 hrs UTC (4:04pm CST), a M2.9 (mb_lg)earthquake shook Pecos, TX.  Several earthquakes have already occurred this year near Pecos.  Similar to the previous events, the focal depth was shallow at 5 kms.  TXESP’s EQ1 Seismograph did NOT detect any wave phases (see below); however, the Raspberry Shake (HP 4.0 Hz filter) recorded some wave arrivals – predominantly the PcP and PcS interpretations.  Today’s event was approximately 9 polar deg away from station E1TX.

M5.9 in the North Pacific Ocean, (Eastern Side)

Earlier today, 10May2018 at 18:36 hrs UTC, a M5.9 occurred in the North Pacific Ocean, (Eastern Side).  The focal depth was shallow at 10 kms.  TXESP’s EQ1 Seismograph clear recordings of the P, PP, and PPP wave phases (see below).  Our Raspberry Shake is not clear if it recorded any wave arrivals – the “background noise” is convolved with any event inhibiting a confident interpretation.

Its flaring up….and the Earth is ringing!

In the past 12 hours, two magnitude 5.2 earthquakes have occured in El Salvador. TXESP  recorded both events on the EQ1 Seismometer! See below.

Its flaring up.

In the past 24 hours, with a magnitude 5.4, magnitude 6.9, and a magnitude 6.1 earthquakes in Hawaii and the Philippines. A lot of this is due to the collapsing crater in Kilauea on the big island.
