South Orange County, CA Earthquake 4-23-2012 local news

Monday, April 23, 2012

Did you feel the earthquake today? I didn't but my daughter did at school, saying it felt like a bang. A jolt type of earthquake. This small earthquake occurred this morning at 10:37am. a 3.9 mag about a mile away from Laguna Niguel, CA. It was a pretty minor quake. I am upset I didn't get to feel it, I was in north Orange County today and felt nothing. Oddly, this sort of news is exciting in an unexpected, sometimes tragic though, sort of way. Earthquakes are intriguing to me as they truly are from the foundation on which we stand and live. If our foundation crumbles, it is a new start that's needed or possibly an end.

I still believe a much bigger one awaits soon... when, I won't try to guess, I tried that and was wrong. So, I don't need to guess. Like a dream I once had though, there was an earthquake and it stopped at the entryway of my home and I heard God's voice say to be prepared. There was a real earthquake days or so later after the dream similar to my dream, it stopped as I stood in the entryway! Was this dream about an earthquake, or was it about life in general and living for God? I wonder many times about dreams, though many other times dreams seem pointless and strange.

Well, about the earthquake today... not too bad and no major damage or disaster. Most people around here are still waiting for the "Big One" thinking we are due for a large magnitude earthquake, especially with so many earthquakes occurring south of OC in the Mexico area.

There are many fault lines in Southern California that it could create damage along the fault areas and a tidal wave at some point should a larger scale earthquake occur. This would cause some serious damage (which is why in south OC there are many Tsunami evacuation arrow signs now put up recently over the past 6-7 years or so). We are in God's hands, and it is his timing if it happens or not. Natural disasters happen for whatever reason, we do not always understand, God knows.
I noticed in the following scripture in Matthew 24:7 the book and verse numbers, suddenly this reminded me, how we say the phrase, 24/7: 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Like a store that is available 24/7, God too is available 24/7. Especially in these days, we should be prepared. We should live in joy but with the knowledge that God is with us always, at all times and live our lives keeping God first in all things.
 
Matthew 24:7 NKJ
For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. And there will be famines, pestilences, and earthquakes in various places.
 Mark 13:8 NKJ
For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. And there will be earthquakes in various places, and there will be famines and troubles. These are the beginnings of sorrows.

 Be prepared for earthquakes, for famines, and natural disasters, be prepared for future tribulations.

Be prepared, and don't fret.

Indonesia 10-25-2010 Tsunami Volcano Earthquakes and Dreams

 I dreamt months ago... 'World Series 1985"? Then I woke up. Why did I dream this? The 1985 World Series began on October 19 till October 27 Then I saw the information on google about the major earthquake that hit in 1989. October 17, 1989 World Series earthquake, which led me to think maybe... an earthquake for California was coming again in October? I guessed some dates (search my earthquake blogs by clicking the linked categories below, or earthquake in the search box).

 Well, maybe it wasn't days or times I was wondering about. Though, it just so happens that Indonesia has been having some larger earthquakes again, starting in October, I believe actually since October 21, 2010, but a major 7.7 magnitude earthquake on my birthday October 25th, as well as a tsunami and volcanic eruption.

Last night, I dreamt of my angel. The first dream I can remember of an angel. I woke up and knew I was not alone. When I fell back to sleep I dreamt of different circumstances where I felt as a 'third person', like it was me, yet I was someone else, yeah know? Well, I dreamt of a woman with children needing help, from another country, boarding a plane, it seemed a man was left behind. I felt I should pray when I remembered my dream this morning. Maybe it was a real circumstance somewhere?

I didn't hear of this Indonesia earthquake situation until today, and some how I think my dreams from earlier this year and now feel like warnings, premonitions  and more so reasons to pray, pray, pray always.

Here's an article about the recent Indonesia earthquake: http://www.gmanews.tv/story/204527/indonesia-struggles-as-tsunami-volcano-tolls-rise

Still wondering though, when is the big California one coming...? Be prepared.

5.4 Earthquake San Diego, CA 7-7-2010 Rockin in my Chair Orange County

I was just wondering the other day... we haven't had an earthquake recently, I wonder when we are going to have another one. Well as I am working here at my desk with my feet up on a chair, slouchy style, both chairs decided to rock with me in them in a sort of rumbly fashion. So I checked the earthquake site, it wasn't up yet... and then a call from a sister who saw it on the news and here it is on the earthquake site:
5.4 Magnitude in the desert inland area of San Diego near Borrego Springs. Those earthquakes are scooting there way up towards my house! Check it out:
http://earthquake.usgs.gov/earthquakes/recenteqsus/Quakes/ci10736069.html

I posted an earthquake response "Did you feel it?" survey. They said my area was felt as a 4 magnitude otherwise called MMI 4 intensity felt. Which was higher than some of the LA and San Diego areas. Pretty much the earthquake was a little south and west of South Orange County. Eeek! I will assume we will have more, it seems at the rate of uh, monthly? -here in the south-land.
This rumbling feels like my frustration I had today... the earth gave a preemptive "errr-ahh moment" before my day got difficult. 

If these smaller but large earthquakes are only God's land mumbling in its anger... boy, do I want to be up in the air (with all my family) when it really lets loose!? Will it this year- here and big? Feeling this many earthquakes is not usually what So Cal is like. Yeah we have them, but it's more of maybe a year or two between feeling them as we are now, feeling so many.
My little poem...

 With earthquakes abroad and close, with the leaking oil on our coast...

Will God heal our land? 

"America, America God shed his light on thee, 

and crown us good with brotherhood 

from Sea to shining Sea." 

Forgive us- some of us know not what we do, 

some of us do.

Send us your Grace

in so many mistakes.

America freedoms and many dreams, keep us together knit at the seams.

"We all well know, we're gonna reap what we sow, 

but Grace, we all know, can take the place of all we owe, 

so why not let's Forgive

everyone, everywhere, everything..." mewithoutYou

Ezekiel 38:20-22 (New Living Translation)

²⁰ All living things—the fish in the sea, the birds of the sky, the animals of the field, the small animals that scurry along the ground, and all the people on earth—will quake in terror at my presence. Mountains will be thrown down; cliffs will crumble; walls will fall to the earth. ²¹ I will summon the sword against you on all the hills of Israel, says the Sovereign Lord. Your men will turn their swords against each other. ²² I will punish you and your armies with disease and bloodshed; I will send torrential rain, hailstones, fire, and burning sulfur!

James 5:9
Don’t grumble about each other, brothers and sisters, or you will be judged. For look—the Judge is standing at the door!

Yet Another Earthquake 6-14-2010 Southern California

I was working on my blog when I felt some rumbling below my feet and my desk shaking. Very minor in my area felt more like a 2-3 magnitude. I gathered my children and stopped at the front door, just like my last "earthquake dream", in it I stopped before we went out the door. Except in my dream, I felt/heard the voice of God telling me to be prepared. We do need to be prepared as this is more earthquakes in such a close time (all over the world too) than I can remember in all the years growing up here. Are we really prepared? We have some bottles of water, can food, band-aids, and... what about our souls, are they prepared for any unexpected events that may bring life change? We got to live for Him. Keep the faith.

6-14-2010 9:26 pm Earthquake 5.7 magnitude in Southern California, near Ocotillo. Southeast from Orange County and San Diego near the Mexico border. More around the area.

More Earthquakes rattle Southern California 4.9 8:08pm Borrego Springs

June 12, 2010 8:08pm
4.9 earthquake Borrego Springs, CA. 31 miles from Palm Springs and 59 miles from San Diego. Another nearby 4.4 earthquake also. My sister in San Diego felt this one. http://earthquake.usgs.gov/earthquakes/recenteqsus/Quakes/ci10701405.php

Earthquake again, Mexico California Border 4.5 May 18, 2010

Interesting... Last night I had a dream. A short dream, my home was shaking, really shaking and I knew it was an earthquake, I gathered children, and then I could hear right before going out the front door, as though the Lord was telling me, "Be prepared, don't wait..." and more; I remember mostly prepare. I woke up after that. I think now more so it was about prayer and not being caught off guard, but ready. I more and more these days feel that a larger earthquake will come again sooner rather than later, as it is obvious to us Cali residents, "long over-due". I felt today I was going to see something about an earthquake on the news... sure enough today on abc 11pm "Earthquake in the South-land" Not too big a 4.5, 3s, and 2s. Many earthquakes in the general area. Especially Mexico.

Pray as always we should, safe from harm.. God bless, amen.  :)

Is California and Mexico Falling off soon? Look at this Earthquake Map, plus helpful information

No, I don't think we are really falling off the map anytime soon, but check out this site, especially Mexico- Baja California area- WOW! There are so many earthquakes and aftershocks since Easter's big one. So far in South Orange County I have felt 3 total, the 7.2 and 5.5 from Mexico area and last night 1.9 in SE California. I know people closer to the Mexico border have felt even more. Check out this earthquake map for today 4-10-2010 Map Centered at 37°N, 120°W

The earthquake site is good for updates and to report if you "felt it".  I can hardly believe I felt one in SE California late last night while checking out the earthquake site. I refreshed the page and saw it listed at 1.9 magnitude, don't know how I felt that! My desk and chair are a little wobbly which makes it easier to notice though. Interesting stuff though, crazy how much the land we tread on shakes beneath us!

I am just going to put this out there- Please don't take me seriously, would just be 'trippy' if this came true. I had a dream this last week about a year and the World Series? I don't really know why. Now, I was just searching earthquakes and it turns out there are a bunch of people expecting a BIG ONE in California West coast to happen later this year. Okay, I don't follow that stuff! But, I just came across information that stated in 1989 there was a 7.1 in San Francisco during the World Series... this wasn't the year I dreamt I think? This just felt a little ironic, So I want to make a guesstimate... If I am right than whoa! If not, hey it's just a guess for fun?...
Remember just guessing, maybe a broad range sometime in October: October 1, 4, 5, 7, 8, or 9, 27 2010, if I had to pick one specific date- for fun... hmm October 7, 2010.  I really don't know. Just based on some numbers about the World Series. I am not usually one to predict stuff, but I have had some strange dreams come true- the last being a tsunami, a boy lost from home rescued by a bus driver, and death/murder, the location and what they looked like, police and a family= All of these I saw soon later in the news/paper the last one being very close to my home.

1906 San Francisco earthquake, some of my family survived this.

And no, I don't think California, Mexico, or the west coast will fall off the map. I watched some information that more likely over a period of time, that I won't see, the coast of Cali will shift upwards. Tsunami's are another story, I do think that our coastline is wearing away from the ocean tide. In my lifetime the sand on local beaches here are half of what I remember. Whatever the case we are in God's hands if a big anything comes. Don't worry just learn to be prepared, we have no true knowledge of when... anything, except that we know there will be disasters.

God bless, Alysa
