Southern California Weather Force has gone into full Earthquake Watch following the recent 4.2 quake in San Bernardino and Fontana. Scientific reasoning suggests that there is a possibility of a larger earthquake hitting California before February 8th.
The Geysers, an area located north of San Francisco in Northern California, is known for its geological activity. When disturbances occur in this region, it indicates that pressure from the Earth’s mantle is affecting the crust. Swarms of earthquakes measuring magnitudes of 4 and 3 have been observed in this area. Such seismic activity suggests that California may experience a larger earthquake, surpassing a magnitude of 4.0, within the predicted timeframe.
Earthquakes have been occurring in various parts of California, including the state as a whole and the Cajon Pass, in the past month. The focus will be on the San Andreas and San Jacinto Fault, as they are potential areas for more seismic activity. When the Geysers start to show signs of activity, it indicates that a stronger earthquake is imminent for the state. Whether you are in Northern, Central, Southern California, or Baja, it is evident that the stress beneath the Earth’s crust is building up, increasing the likelihood of a larger earthquake.
Make sure to always have your earthquake kits prepared and ready, or have your preparations on standby.
Make an Emergency Plan: Develop a family emergency communications plan that includes an out-of-state contact. Remember that during a significant earthquake, cellphone towers may be overwhelmed, making it difficult to reach anyone.
When going out with others, it’s always a good idea to have a plan in case you get separated. One important step is to decide on a meeting place where everyone can gather if they become separated. It could be a specific landmark or a designated area that is easily recognizable. This will help ensure that everyone can find each other quickly and easily.
Another crucial aspect of being prepared is having a supply kit on hand. This kit should include enough food and water to last for several days, as well as other essential items such as a flashlight, a fire extinguisher, and a whistle. These items can be invaluable in emergency situations and can help ensure your safety and well-being until help arrives.
By taking these simple steps, you can be better prepared for unexpected situations and increase your chances of staying safe and together with your group.
