[Carlos Ochoa]

Location: Molagavita, Santander
Coordinates: 6 41 14 77 N, 72 48 19 49 W

80% of the area is sunken and cracked, so I assure Molagavita Major, Edwin Antonio Prada, who also said 15 homes have been on the ground, while another 20 had to be evacuated due to cracks in structures.

Pantano Grande school, in the early hours of the morning just cracks had already been reported as destroyed.

On the other hand, the Major reported the disappearance of 2 km of the road connecting the town with Malaga and the capital of the department. At this time the population is cut off.

An estimated 200 people had to be evicted from their homes.

I am doing all this up for my forthcoming newsletter. In the N Andes fault line in Colombia, big crumbling, and along the coastline where it borders the Caribbean Plate, sinking in TWO different places. And now this, also along the N Andes fault line.

S America is STARTING to roll. As the Zetas said the trend would be obvious before it actually happens. The trend has certainly announced itself!

I too keep feeling movement and then expect an earthquake but none follows. Except for today there was one that followed. But it leaves you feeling dizzy, it feels like being on the waves to me. I get seasick and it is that same feeling on the rolling swell. Horrible.

[Victor Fox]

in our region (midle Urals) i feel movements of ground every day. i asked the people, if they've noticed the same, the answer is YES. in south Urals (челябинск-Chelabinsk) people are concerned with ground movements, too, they suppose the course is some military activity. but never the global changes

Astrogal50 Thanks! this is no seismic causes, nor the effect of floods, in a video I saw that the locals say that the earth makes a sound like thunder, the earth groans, of course, no geologist is going to be able to give a real explanation of what happens, will say absurd lies, the soil is stressed, it is stretching, and South America will soon roll, but these people no one will tell you that the cause is Planet X!

In the absence of quakes this is a new, incredible, and unexplainable sign of the times. (And I thought the street and parking lot cracks in North Texas were getting bad.) Thank you!
