Update 16/08 – 16:25 UTC
- 3 more earthquakes from M0.9 to M1.1 at a depth of 11 to 12 km (12:25 to 13:47 UTC)
- Maybe IGN could take a few courses in press reporting at GNS Science New Zealand. If an important new swarm starts, like the one today (even with weak earthquakes), an experienced volcanologist may write 5 sentences in explaining what the opinion of the organization is. Why does a body like Pevolca is to be used for volcanology ? If i would live in Sabinosa, i would love to hear a few words if continuous quakes are occurring below my house.
Update 16/08 – 13:37 UTC
- 5 more earthquakes in between M0.6 and M1.2 and at depths in between 10 and 11 km

Did you see the small article about August 8th, 2012 on Steve Quayle’s site about a Mitchell Coombes posting a warning about being CLOSE to a ’104 hour tsunami countdown’, being the same? person who posted a countdown March 6th, @ 9:39PM, 2011, regarding the Japan tsunami??…This is just a rhetorical question…I’m waiting to see if this ‘Mitchell Coombes’ posts The ACTUAL countdown!
A friend sent me a forwarded email with pics of a volcano & mountains being formed in the south Pacific within minutes – originally dated to July 2012 (tho anything can be faked) ‘I repeat – you decide’!
