LA Big One Update

LA Big One Update
Andre Willers
26 Aug 2011

Synopsis :
The Big One for California is expected with epicenter at about 38 N , 126 W around September 5 , 2011 . In the sea , off Los Angeles . Expect big tsunamis .
Still on track.

Discussion :
I have had some comments that 126 W does not fit the model's prediction of 135 W
And that the latitude differs by 10 degrees with that of LA .

Sadly , this does not make much difference . This is not a fault quake .

Magma Plume Origin .
This means the whole ocean floor lifts . Triggering faults , as well as tsunamis .
The weakest fault nearest to 59 N , 135 W goes first , and the rest unzips in sequence .
The first seems to be at 38 N , 126 W , then down the longitude . Due to the fractured nature of Californian coast .
The land quakes could be worse , but the tsunamis will be bad .

The timing :
Sept 6, 2011 , about the 12h00-13h00 .
.Reverberation effects around planetary magma layers .There is a slight delay anti-spinward . (The triggering signature is the Colorado quake)

The extent is unknown . Lunar and Solar tidal fluxes of the magma has to be taken into account . About 22 hours later than prediction on Sept 5 , 2011 by my estimate .

Maximum probability at about 12h00- 13h00 on Sept 6 , 2011 . (when atmospheric pressure at lowest .)

I will only be too glad if I am wrong .

Andre .
