    from the start of the Fiji 5.3 and 497km deep quake, just a few hours ago.. i have very little data bandwidth left, so, experienced members please help with newbie here and u proly know where to find eq data

    any way, i live in penticton, bc canada

    the quake occurred right around where the point of the new moon is and also, the reading i got, low/hi pressure barrier, aligned with sun/earth, the “pull” of all the action, might trigger a big after affect, maybe even volcanic, i hope i am wrong, 500km radious from epicenter or 25.274s and 179.70e

    thanks, my data resets on wednesday, posting very late monday evening

    i never use any proper grammar and sentence structure, it is what it is cause of who i am

    Hello Basireid… and welcome to the group. For some of us like myself who are in lock down in the UK at the moment, Penticton, British Colombia sounds like a nice, environmentally open place to live !!. Don’t worry about grammar, can make it out okay, and be nice to have someone on this site that would make as many mistakes as I do… 🙂

    Fiji is a good choice of location to start, I had a couple of attempts here recently with no result. But I’m sure it has potential, and just a question of timing before someone gets it right. Perfect margin of error for this region, and 4 – 6 days is okay, but, although postings are not too formal here, its best to have a definite start and finish date to save any confusion. Also an idea to add a magnitude range, which I don’t think you have done here. Its usually up to individual choice what range to select, but for a region like Fiji, 5.5 – 6.8 would be a good proposal because it does have frequent high mag history… a mid 5’s hit would get you notoriety, and for high 6’s, its party time 🙂

    You asked about Earthquake data, I assume you can access EQ event listings, but in case not, you can get seismic / volcanic listings on the following sites…

    http://www.earthquake.usgs.gov
    http://www.emsc-csem.org
    http://www.hisz.rsoe.hu
    http://www.volcanodiscovery.com

    Earthquake data for formulating a forecast, all depends on which method or theory you wish to employ ?. Ben has a lot of tools and helpful tutorials on this site, but if your interest is planetary alignments, tides, or other solar / lunar influences… let us know, and I’m sure someone here could point you in the right direction.

    You sound like a Moon fan too me 🙂 … hope this helps !

    thank you lester for your reply

    i use usgs primarily and daily check for any 2.5 plus

    based on your reply…

    from when i posted yesterday evening
    until saturday this week.. a 6.0 +/- .5 for fiji region
    a circle 1000km across, with the epicenter of the fiji low depth position as the center of this ‘zone’ (edited a minute later, one thousand not hundred.. )

    pentictom is the Ironman Canada City, well, they left a few years ago and supposed to return this year, now? doubtful, at best, the oly games got cancelled, and here in penticton, most business shutdown, just food and booze still open, oh and weed is legal too now, got to buy some more,, its how i stay in tune with this earth we all on, she speaks in visul terminology, my problem is using human terms to interpret what i percieve, i have had inner insights in a few seconds of real time, that have me looking to explain these info packed , for want of better words, an epiphany, 5 seconds, has taken years to correctly make it coherent, to my understanding, someone else understanding?.. hmmm this is the struggle part..

    anyway, kilobytes per page add up.. tomorrow i can catch up on SO videos, on utube, 3 days of no video, yikes, hope no big news has been missed, This Ben Fellow, i watched all 3 of his long movies, and quite a few dailys,, he seems to know what he talks about, yet, he does so without arrogant ego…

    i just last night deciphered another epiphany, but that will be for another story somewhere

    thanks to all who contribute here

    Hey Brian… you got this nailed down to a “good” forecast now. I have to say with honesty though, “epiphanies” would not rate highly with seismic reasoning. But if you did get a hit in Fiji, the golden rule of science is “everything stays on the table, until a credible solution is found”… even epiphanies 🙂

    You didn’t say weather weed is medicinal or pleasure, but if it keeps you focused… then I say “why not” !

    Tried it once in my youth, at a party next door. A friend told me the next day, I had been sat on the floor most of the evening, having an intellectual conversation with my neighbours dog !… kept showing his teeth at me for weeks after !!

    Save your data my friend… just wishing you luck again !
