There has been much made of an earthquake in the recent past long the New Madrid fault line, as this was unexpected, being in a quiescent area, and thus raised all manner of questions regarding the possibility of massive earthquakes in areas presumed to be safe. Simply put, there are no earthquake free areas, and during the coming pole shift, all parts of the globe will be subject to them, without exception. Thus, individuals living in areas which have never experienced an earthquake should not presume safety but should take the same steps in preparing for the pole shift that those living atop highly active fault lines take - stay out of old or masonry buildings, and anticipate earthquakes as severe as any that mankind has ever experienced and noted.
ZetaTalk ™
Our description on the pole shift itself describes not a single jolt when the crust stops moving but a series of jolts. Most severe earthquakes are like this, in fact, if one examines their pattern. There are small quakes ahead of time, swarms, and jiggling that unsettles people as they sense something is pending. Then when the rock fingers that are preventing the fault line from sliding or subducting suddenly break, a large jolt. This often, within minutes, results in more jolts as the pressure that was at one point now moves to be pressure at the next point where rock fingers are holding the slippage. Aftershocks result, as yet more rock fingers break, until a point arrives where there is so much resistance to slippage that the quake and its after effects is considered complete.
For the New Madrid, which will include the European tsunami in its effects, there will be one large jolt with a subsequent and almost immediate tearing of the Atlantic. We have stated that the European tsunami will be the largest, but smaller ones will follow in time. Likewise for the New Madrid adjustment, which involve a tearing of the entire N American continent from the seaway down to Mexico. This adjustment will not occur until minor rock fingers have been steadily broken in a number of places. The areas to be affected have already been experiencing quake swarms, buckling roadways, sinkholes, breaking dams, and unsettling jigging which is unexplained by the authorities. When the primary blockage gives, there will be a huge jolt, with little warning. Aftershocks will continue until the time of the pole shift itself.
ZetaTalk ™ 2010
It is known by man that the New Madrid Fault line runs beyond the immediate area of New Madrid. When we stated that "Chicago will rupture and adjust" and "Ohio will be pulled in places" this should not be news to man. The New Madrid runs up along the Seaway, to the mouth of the Seaway, and thus will rupture any land it passes through. Plot its course and consider that more than the fault line itself will be disrupted. Rock detached from its former connections is free to react to the dominant theme in the area. If rock was held down, formerly, it can bounce up. If rock was held back, it is free to spring forward. And adjustment in rock strata means that loose soil will sink or heave. This most certainly can affect a broader area than just the fault line. We have stated that Ohio will be affected most in this regard. These matters are related to the rock strata, which bonds or breaks, as we have stated. There is a natural break in the rock strata holding Ohio, along the Ohio River and into its headwaters, as can be seen. Why should Chicago be affected? There is a natural break in the rock strata between the New Madrid and Chicago also, a weakness, which will rupture with the New Madrid. When the Seaway pulls apart there will be a dropin support formerly present during rock attachments. Chicago has long been predicted, by ourselves and others, to be devastated. Much of the infrastructure will rupture, causing buildings to crumble and freeways to be worthless and irreparable. One need only follow the geology of the region, to predict what will happen.
ZetaTalk ™ 2010
During the 7 of 10 New Madrid adjustment the Seaway will be affected, as we mentioned earlier. It will not tear open to the degree we predicted for the pole shift itself, but weak points along the Seaway will adjust. During the 7 of 10 Duluth will find crevasses nearby, similar to the crevasse that has occurred recently in the Michigan Penninsula, but with greater depth and scope. Inland locks along the Seaway will break. Detroit and Toronto will be unaffected during the 7 of 10 except of course for earthquake damage. As the New Madrid fault line runs up along the Seaway just under the Great lakes in Ohio, cities such as Cleveland and Toledo will find their infrastructure greatly shattered in places as the rock beneath them will jut and drop, vertical adjustments. Buffalo, being virtually on the fault line, will likewise be shattered in this way, such that freeways become useless, but the seaway at Niagara Falls will remain.
ZetaTalk ™ 2010
As both sides of the New Madrid Fault Line are pulled in opposite directions, the entire fault line operates as a slip-slide fault line. In that the land just to the west of the Mississippi River moves the greatest distance, to ease the pressure on the bow currently formed by the N American continent, this creates a void, a stretch zone void, causing the land there to drop, as we have explained. This is the region currently experiencing precursor earthquakes, the region considered the New Madrid region. But the movement is not yet happening, the void not yet being created. Instead, occasional slight slip-slide adjustments are being made, deep within the rock strata, causing minor quake swarms or sympathetic jolts in neighboring areas. The rock fingers are slipping, but not losing their grip.
When the plate tearing starts in earnest, these slip-slide jolts will be huge, and rise up to the magnitude 8-9 range, as we have stated. These quakes will ride up to the bend in the fault line just south of Lake Michigan. Earthquake damage is primarily done when the rock close to the surface is affected, as is known by man. The quality of the rock along the fault line thus affects the shaking and resulting damage to the surface. A glance at a map of the geology of the fault line shows that the rock along the Mississippi at Arkansas and Missouri is younger, laid down by sediment, and tends to fracture broadly, thus relaying earthquake jolts over a vast area. Broad fractures also cause post quake adjustments, so the quake includes rock shuffling, all of which translates to a larger magnitude for the area. Thus, the worst of the New Madrid adjustment will be felt in this area.
The rock strata that hold Illinois and Indiana is older, and more solid. Fracturing of the rock tends to be a single jolt, not the multiple ricocheting jolts that magnify any adjustment in the rock strata experienced by the rock strata in Arkansas and Missouri. The magnitude will still be considered high, perhaps an 8, but the shaking will not last as long, and the damage therefore not as great. Were the bend in the fault line just south of Lake Michigan not at a point where the southeastern part of the US is dropping away from the Seaway, the damage along the Seaway would be much greater. The Equator is expanding in the center of the Atlantic, and has already, by this time, ripped open between S America and Africa. The southeast thus drops toward this void, relieving pressure and friction along the slip-slide in the fault line as it runs under the Seaway.
By the time the New Madrid adjustment reaches the bend, land to the west of the Mississippi has already dropped, pulled away, but this actually puts more pressure on the fault line as it runs under Michigan. This holds, momentarily, while the southeast starts to drop toward the Atlantic Rift, and then pulls apart sharply. Here, beneath Michigan, the jolts will also not last for long, and will also be considered up to magnitude 8. The fault line thence along the Seaway will unzip, along rock strata borders already established. Where stretch zones such as this normally have adjustments that are basically silent, they do much damage. The unzipping creates crevasses and landslides and sinkholes, and when this occurs under cities is devastating. The quakes will be considered much less than magnitude 8 but the damage will be greater, with consequent lost of life and infrastructure. A building that has collapsed because of a large jolt is no different than one that has collapsed because the ground beneath it sank.
As is known, there is a fault line running up along the East Coast of the US that attaches to the New Madrid fault line in the Gulf. Both fault lines touch there, in the Gulf, and when the New Madrid adjusts there is a sympathetic adjustment up along this fault line. During the last New Madrid adjustment, church bells rang in Boston and cracks appeared in buildings in Savannah, GA and Charleston, SC. These changes are caused by earthquakes equivalent to a magnitude 4-5 or less, not serious.

Cincinnati building collapse with three injured
by: The Associated Press
Posted: Nov 25, 2019 / 05:42 PM EST / Updated: Nov 25, 2019 / 05:42 PM EST
CINCINNATI (AP) – Authorities say at least three people have been injured in Cincinnati after part of a building under construction collapsed.
Cincinnati Fire Chief Roy Winston said three people on the structure’s fifth floor were injured when part of the building collapsed Monday afternoon after workers on the sixth floor started pouring concrete.
Winston said one worker had minor injuries and the other two had more serious injuries. He said all were in stable condition.
The chief said crews were searching for any others who might have been injured and contractors were making sure workers were accounted for.
The structure resides on a construction site and isn’t accessible to the public.
Ron Howard, property manager of the building across the street, described the collapse as sounding like a “bunch of mud, metal crashing, timber falling.”

SOZT
The authorities at Port Neches are not even attempting to explain what caused the explosion on November 27, as the damage at ground zero is so extensive. This is related to the New Madrid Fault Line adjustment ongoing, which at the current time is pulling the soft sedimentary rock west of the Mississippi River down and to the southwest. Stretch zone adjustment seldom register as quakes, but cause land tilt, crevasses, zig-zag train tracks, separations in roadways or bridges, snapped water and gas mains, and collapsing buildings.
Often stretch zones will have sections that are cohesive, with borders between these sections taking the brunt of the stretch or tug, though the entire section may tilt. Port Neches is clearly a border between sections, and the jolt felt for miles was due more to the ground movement than the explosion. The stage has been set for a New Madrid unzipping along the fault line. Africa rolled on November 26, as was shown during the recent spate of strong quakes in Albania. This allowed S America to roll further, so the tip of Mexico was shoved and Port Neches dropped.

3 Earthquakes Rattle Missouri Right in the New Madrid Seismic Zone
By Strange Sounds - Nov 28, 2019
https://strangesounds.org/2019/11/earthquake-missouri-new-madrid-se...
The New Madrid Fault System is rumbling again.
Within the last 10 hours, 3 tremors of M2.6 and 2 times M2.0 rattled Lilbourn and New Madrid, respectively. The first earthquake, a M2.0 tremor, hit 1:40 a.m. CST (7:40 UTC), 7km SSE of New Madrid, Missouri, at a depth of 4.2 miles (6.8 km).
About 9 hours later, at 10:30 a.m. and 10:33 a.m. local time, a M2.6 was followed by a M2.0 quake just 4-5km SW of Lilbourn, Missouri. Both quakes were also very shallow (4.9 miles and 5.3 miles).
It is of course too early if those 3 quakes are a sign of the incoming ‘Big One’ along the New Madrid Fault Zone. But let just say that the seismicity in the region has increased in intensity within the last few weeks with several tremors larger than M3.0 in October and in September, repeatedly (Arkansas M3.7, series in Lilbourn, M3.1 in Lilbourn).
Today, it is clear that the 150-mile-long New Madrid Seismic Zone will blow. It’s even so sure that scientists have extrapolated a terrifying 40% chance to blast in the next few decades.
Doing so, the Big New Madrid Quake’ will impact at least 7 states – Illinois, Indiana, Missouri, Arkansas, Kentucky, Tennessee and Mississippi – with 715,000 buildings damaged and 2.6 millions of people left without power.

Bluff in Alton along Mississippi River partially collapses
Posted on Jan 21, 2020
ALTON, Ill. (KMOV.com) -- A 200-foot bluff in Alton partially collapsed Tuesday taking out part of a wall that’s an iconic gathering spot because of its view of the Mississippi River.
The bluff is at the west end of Alton above the Great River Road.
Many people in the area have a connection to the viewing spot at the edge of Riverview Park.
“I got married in the gazebo and took pictures all along that wall, so many people have,” Robert Schubert said. “It’s an important icon for the city and the neighborhood.”
The collapse happened sometime late Sunday or early Monday. But the trouble began last summer when some of the soil slid during the heavy rains that caused flooding in the area.
“We were notified in July and we put some sandbags in to try to deflect the water away from the wall in case it were to rain again,” Public Works Director Bob Barnhart said.
The city said the closest home to the bluff is not in any danger. The city had been working on a plan to stabilize the side of the bluff.
"I know there's a lot of people worried they've been taking a little too long to figure out which direction they wanted to go,” Schubert said.
For now the city plans to remove the loose soil that remains on the side of the steep hill to stabilize it and prevent further unpredictable and dangerous collapsing. But any long term solution will be dangerous, specialized work and won't come cheap.
"There's costs ranging from almost $400,000 to over $1 million," Barnhart said.
The city hopes that FEMA will cover most of the cost.
Ameren Illinois relocated overhead power lines partly to get them out of the way of crews coming to stabilize the hillside and partly so they won’t be taken out if more of the bluff sides away.
There is a business at the bottom of the bluff. The city is working to protect Abbot Machine Company if more of the hillside falls away.
“What we’ll do is try to extract the soil at the top and anything that falls will be contained in that area and not on that business,” Barnhart said.
Coincidentally the city council planned to take up this issue at a Tuesday night’s meeting. They'll use it to green light the emergency stabilization work.

'The first one was insane': 5.7 earthquake hits near Magna
- Mar. 18, 2020
SALT LAKE CITY — A strong earthquake shook homes from Spanish Fork to Logan on Wednesday.
A 5.7 magnitude quake happened just about 7:10 a.m. with the epicenter just north of Magna, between the city and Antelope Island, according to the U.S. Geological Survey.
There was no immediate reports of damage, but residents across Salt Lake County reported feeling their homes shake. Some reported the shaking lasted as long as 15 seconds.
Azur Timmerman, 24, and her wife, Tara, were getting ready for work when the quake began rattling their home in far west West Valley City, near the estimated epicenter of the earthquake.
”The first one was insane,” Timmerman said. “The shaking didn’t stop for maybe 45 seconds.”
Rocky Mountain Power tweeted just before 8 a.m. “We are aware of large scale power outage in the Salt Lake Valley Area impacting approximately 32,000 customers. We currently are assessing damages and will restore power as soon as possible.”
The Utah Transit Authority announced that as of 8 a.m., “all trains (TRAX and FrontRunner) are halting service until further notice. We are working with power companies to restore power and have crews evaluating our rails for damage.”
Timmerman said she grabbed Tara, and they stood in a doorway until the shaking stopped.
”We thought, ‘Is this an earthquake and is the world ending?” she said, laughing.
”Things were falling off the walls,” she said. “Our family photos and porcelain statues on shelves all got knocked off the walls and broke on the tile floor.”
Multiple smaller aftershocks were felt, mainly by residents in the northwest portion of Salt Lake County.

This animation, called a Ground Motion Visualization (GMV), shows the motion of the ground as detected on USArray seismometers - each dot is a seismic station and when the ground moves up it turns red and when it moves down it turns blue.
Some of the instruments look like they are experiencing shaking before the seismic waves arrive. This is due to the setting of the animation and the calibration of the seismic instrument.
This particular GMV is a brand new beta product generated using the vertical component of our Ground Motion Visualization (GMV). To produce a better coverage, the video is based on all available stations from any FDSN data center, using the fedcatalog service (http://service.iris.edu/irisws/fedcatalog/1/). The video uses the available BHZ, LHZ, or HHZ channel to produce the video, therefore provides a better coverage.

Minor earthquake shakes parts of Quebec just outside Montreal
There was a minor earthquake in Quebec on Sunday morning (Mar 29) just 39 kilometres north-northeast of Montreal and 35 kilometres west-southwest of Sorel-Tracy.
The seismic activity, which occurred around 3:21 a.m., was generally lightly felt by residents in the Montreal region.
According to the federal agency, 2,291 people reported feeling the earthquake early Sunday. 1,271 Quebecers said the tremor was level two intensity, while 729 said it was a three and 256 reported it to be a four.
This is the region’s second earthquake this month, as another light earthquake shook Montreal on March 6 at approximately the same time of day.
It is the eighth earthquake to occur in Quebec since the beginning of the year.

In the opinion of the Zetas, "the New Madrid will adjust this year."

June 30, 2020 GUANAJUATO: THE LAND OPENED IN THE PÉNJAMO COMMUNITY. Fear grips neighbors of the community of Cieneguita de Morales, when about 15 days ago the land began to open, creating a ditch almost 2 kilometers long, one to two meters wide and about 4 meters deep.
According to what could be verified, this crack that started from San José de Morales and that has already reached Cieneguita de Morales, has affected some homes in this community, where some owners such as Josefina Morales, Fabiola Galván and Arcelia Madrigal, showed how their houses have suffered severe damages, such as cracks in the walls and floor, as well as sinking in their patios.
Given this situation, it was said, the concern has reached other families, since over recent days, the crack has been increasing in width, depth and length.
It was also indicated that this enormous ditch or crack, as it passes, covering almost 2 kilometers in length, has crossed corn fields, where in some sections are experiencing noticeable growth in width, depth, and then retracts again.
Those affected indicated that they expect Civil Protection to be present to assess not only the damage caused to homes and farmland, but also for them to carry out a study to analyze what caused this enormous crack, since the area does not have underground currents and geological faults are unknown to exist.

Related Zetatalk: "Indeed, tearing of the St. Lawrence Seaway will occur during the New Madrid adjustment. We have warned that quakes on the West Coast, or the Seaway, or in the New Madrid region will occur before the major quake in the New Madrid region we have referred to as the adjustment on a 7 of 10 level. Mexico will lurch to the west as this major quake occurs, with a settling of land to the west of the Mississippi almost instantly afterwards. The Mississippi will seem to have widened, and those to the west will see a new view as they look east, as their land will have shifted to the southwest as well as dropped."

Electronic screech showing up on radar around Phoenix AZ on 11 July 2020
https://www.weather.gov/
ZetaTalk Explanation
Why would the rock strata surrounding Phoenix be subject to such pressure that the electronic screech would last for hours? Phoenix lies in the transition zone between highlands of the Colorado Plateau and the lowlands of the Sonora Desert. This transition zone has been torn and shifted repeatedly in the past, and the scars easily reopened. Note that a line extending the Walker Lane fault lines toward the southeast drives through the Hoover Dam and then arrives at Phoenix. This is an ominous sign for those reliant on the Hoover Dam.
We have warned that the rock structure around the Hoover Dam is not stable, and will shatter and shift so that the Hoover Dam spillways cannot be controlled. Back pressure of the Lake Mead waters into Las Vegas is likely to occur, and water from the Colorado River rushing downstream. We have predicted that this will occur prior to and after the New Madrid adjustment but prior to the collateral West Coast fault line reactions to the New Madrid adjustment we have predicted. The Hoover Dam is thus sensitive to the bowing crunch being applied to the area.

New Madrid hotspots and mysterious beams suddenly appear on 10/4/2020
1100 Farenheit / 593 Celcius — "In addition to the strange beams showing up going down into the New Madrid Seismic Zone of Southern Missouri Northern Arkansas .. at the same time frame (or shortly after) a series of extreme hot spots at 900K (1,100F) began flaring off in clusters from New Madrid Missouri, up into the Wabash Valley seismic zone (Indiana Ohio Kentucky). Additionally hot spots in the 800K+ temp spectrum showing in clusters across Pennsylvania, New York, and Maine. Washington state is also experiencing a cluster of the same kind of activity as the New Madrid!"
Dutchsinse thinks this is Directed Energy Weapons and fracking — I suspect the Zetas have a different interpretation.

7 million people at risk of massive New Madrid quake ST. LOUIS (KMOX) — Drop, cover, and hold on. That's probably all you be able to do when the big one hits.
Briggs warns you will have absolutely no advanced warning, no time to prepare when the shaking starts.
"Falling debris is what's going to hurt the vast majority of people," he explains. "Day one after a big New Madrid Seismic Zone earthquake, we estimate about 2.5 million people will be without power, and more than a million people will be without water, and they could be without those services for up to two weeks."
Another safety measure Briggs recommends is to get heavy objects off high shelves and secure large furniture to the wall.
Briggs says you should practice what you'll do the instant the earth starts to shake — drop to the ground, cover yourself either with furniture, or cover your head with your arms, and hold on until the shaking stops. In fact, half a million people in Missouri will practice those techniques as part of the Great ShakeOut.

Cyber attack, or New Madrid Adjustment? — Cyber attack shuts down largest US gasoline pipeline – 45% of east coast and southern regions
On Friday night, the largest U.S. gas pipeline announced it had halted its operations after it discovered it was targeted in a cyber attack. The pipeline provides about 45 percent of the fuel supply along the east coast and southern United States.
In a company statement Friday night, Colonial Pipeline said, “On May 7, the Colonial Pipeline Company learned it was the victim of a cybersecurity attack. In response, we proactively took certain systems offline to contain the threat, which has temporarily halted all pipeline operations, and affected some of our IT systems.”
According to Bloomberg, Colonial Pipeline operates the largest gasoline and diesel pipeline system in the U.S.
CNBC reported the company transports 2.5 million barrels of gasoline, diesel, jet fuel and other refined products every day, accounting for about 45 percent of the east coast’s fuel supply. That fuel passes through 5,500 miles of pipelines. The pipeline network moves fuel from U.S. gulf coast refineries to populous areas along the eastern and southern United States.
The company announced it has hired a cybersecurity firm to investigate the cyberattack and have contacted law enforcement and other federal agencies.
“Colonial Pipeline is taking steps to understand and resolve this issue. At this time, our primary focus is the safe and efficient restoration of our service and our efforts to return to normal operation,” the company said. “This process is already underway, and we are working diligently to address this matter and to minimize disruption to our customers and those who rely on Colonial Pipeline.”
The company has not indicated who may have been behind the cyber attack.
The New York Times reported the FBI typically leads investigations of this nature, but critical infrastructure also falls under the responsibility of the Department of Homeland Security’s Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA).
Infrastructure is increasingly becoming a critical target for potential cyberattacks.
“It’s a serious issue,” Tom Kloza, the global head of energy analysis at Oil Price Information Service told the New York Times. “It could snarl things up because it is the country’s jugular aorta from moving fuel from the Gulf Coast up to New York.”
Mike Chapple, a former NSA computer scientist and cybersecurity expert at the University of Notre Dame told the Washington Post, “This pipeline shutdown sends the message that core elements of our national infrastructure continue to be vulnerable to cyberattack.”
Robert M. Lee, CEO and cofounder of the cybersecurity firm Dragos, told the Washington Post the pipeline outage may have been caused by a ransomware attack. He said, “There are absolutely cases in industrial operations where ransomware impacts operations.”
Lee said most ransomware attacks of this nature are carried out by criminal groups, rather than foreign governments.
