Definitively felt my tuchus wiggle on the couch and heard our house shake after this M3.9 earthquake in San Ramon. Didn’t feel the M4.0 last night at all. Wondering if the magnitude will end up higher? earthquake.usgs.gov/earthquakes/...

Chris modified this figure from a Temblor article which is modified from Shirzaei & Burgmann (2013) showing location of this very early morning's M4.3 earthquake in Berkeley along the Hayward fault. It looks like it happened in the zone where it goes from creeping zone to locked zone.

M2.4 EQ in Oakland! Didn’t feel it b/c we 🏃‍♀️🏃‍♂️ errands, so instead our house ChatGPT user (Chris) asked about energy analogies for an M2.4: 1)🐜 420 quadrillion marching ants; 2)🦍 7,900 sprinting gorillas; and 3)🐋 8.4 sprinting blue whales! 0.4=whale front or tail?

Donald Trump and Elon Musk have left Houston, Tampa, New York and other major cities without head meteorologists just ahead of what will be another busy hurricane season This is straight-up life-threatening malpractice (h/t @lisamjarvis.bsky.social ) www.cnn.com/2025/05/02/w...

A map of the contiguous 48 states titled:
Thirty National Weather Service offices are without a chief meteorologist
Some of these offices issue forecasts for major population centers such as New York City, Houston and Cleveland. Several are prone to hurricanes and tornadoes.
Callouts include:
Upton, NY - Covers New York City and southern Connecticut
Tampa, FL - Hard hit by Hurricane Milton in 2024
Houston, TX - All management positions vacant
Paducah/Louisville/Jackson, KY - Nearly the whole state of Kentucky is covered by forecast areas without leadership

People having been asking: "Are these cuts really that big of a deal? Could people really die?" And the answer is: This exact situation, during a major hurricane/flood/tornado/wildfire event, is precisely how that would happen.

NASA JPL ARIA project analysis of data from Copernicus Sentinel-2 optical and Sentinel-1 radar images measured the slip on the Sagaing Fault in Myanmar. Quick preliminary map. More details later. Fault ruptured about 500 km (300 miles) in the magnitude 7.7 […] [Original post on mastodon.social]

USGS updated PAGER estimate. It's frightening. Zone of extreme damage is now shown elongated along Sagaing fault for >500km. 70% probability of fatalities > 10000 (~35% >100000). ⚒️ 🧪 These are probabilities, hopefully overestimated. In any case it's a massive disaster. Thoughts for the victims 💔

Today's #earthquake near Mandalay, Myanmar, had magnitude Mw 7.7 to 7.9. Prelim. source models point to rupture duration & length of ~120s and at least 200km. It likely filled large part of seismic gap S of Sagaing (previous rupture in 1839) ⚒️ 🧪 Map from doi.org/10.1002/2013... (Wang et al.) 1/n

Updated seismicity map for today’s M7.7 #earthquake in Myanmar: labeled earthquakes down to lower M (7.0) and included aftershocks located until now. Most early aftershocks appear to be located close to the mainshock epicenter. Also, apart from the one M6.4 aftershock, no M5+ (yet). 🧪⚒️

A Bay Area weather service unit that forecasts for SFO, all Hawaiian airports, California, Nevada and Pacific Ocean airspace is experiencing serious staffing shortages. The office currently employs just one meteorologist. Typically, four meteorologists work out of the FAA office in Fremont. #CAwx

sfchronicle.com

Staffing shortage puts office that forecasts weather for SFO in 'uncharted waters'

The weather service unit, collocated within the FAA office in Fremont, provides forecasts for SFO, Oakland airport, San Jose airport and Hawaiian airports.

The revised focal mechanism is RLSS. Wikipedia has a nice map with the fault sections on it and Ray thinks that is was the section that hasn’t ruptured since 1839.

#Thailand just hit by a very large (7.7) #earthquake at 1.26pm local time, origin Myanmar. Felt right across the country. Water in high-rise hotel pools sloshing down buildings, and the big Mahanakorn building downtown (if you know it) seen swaying back and forth. Too early for damage reports.
