@geonet Hi GeoNet - It's been nearly 5 years since the last Manawatu slow slip event commenced. Just had a look at the geodetic info, which suggests Levin and other sites may show signs of restarting. Does this sound plausible? Cheers

@planet4589 Cool, hello from rainy Wellington...

[NZ @MetZachar]

@NWS What's with your new radar site? It's taking over 1 minute to load a single loop centered on central Alabama on Broadband. Not very useful in a stressful situation when time matters.

[NZ @MetZachar]

@KNPBI @bobolito72 @angryUTdude @MSFT365Status Haha, right. Been living here too long I guess!

[NZ @MetZachar]

@UKEQ_Bulletin @sanchez94 @templetonf Gave our house in Porirua quite the strong (and loud) shove, and was very surprised it was less than M4.0, especially given the depth/location. If you were to hazard a guess, was this on the underlying subduction boundary?

@TrumpsGAGirl @kenringweather And nowadays, he sounds like the muffler on a misfiring engine.

[NZ @MetZachar]

@geonet The camera has not been updating since :p

[NZ @MetZachar]

@GoodGodIveHadIt @Alex_Verbeek Basically it's the lack of a solid steering flow, as the ridge begins to breakdown. Small differences in timing and position of this breakdown can lead to large differences in track/intensity. Tropical cyclones are fickle beasts.

[NZ @MetZachar]

@Alex_Verbeek Yeah, unless the 12Z HWRF is correct, which projects Dorian landfall on CONUS near Daytona Beach, and pushes track further west with each run. Anyone along the eastern FL coast needs to remain keenly aware of this weather situation and finish preparations.

@MattBornong @TruthHunterof @dutchsinse Was hoping someone would post the actual police report since it is available within the public domain. Factual evidence is the bane of existence to conspiracy theorists, especially those in search of a perpetual cash flow.

@UKEQ_Bulletin @geonet @SinistralSeismo @ALomaxNet @SeismologyFinn I'm actually quite surprised at the NW-SE spread of recorded aftershocks in relation to the M5.5 Looks like a few different faults could have been involved? Or is the location accuracy more likely, given the fewer number of stations in that region of NZ...?

[NZ @MetZachar]

@UKEQ_Bulletin @LastQuake @SinistralSeismo Hmm, didn't actually feel this one in WGTN CBD, even though I'm in a building built to 'go with the flow'

[NZ @MetZachar]

@EricFielding @Climatologist49 And it's actually been abnormally warm in large parts of the Southern Hemisphere, like Australia and New Zealand. One of the warmer winters we've had thus far in NZ.

@Moodemoiselle @DisastrousComms @kerncountyfire @USGS @Caltech @dutchsinse To quote Happy Gilmore "Where were you on that one, dipshit?" Citing a possible earthquake in the Bay area is not even close to being accurate in this case. NEXT.

[NZ @MetZachar]

@NWSHonolulu This is all I can think about when doing streamline analysis of Hurricane Barbara. https://t.co/IjZo8twaeK Good luck on your upcoming preparations.

[NZ @MetZachar]

@geonet @Markskipper9 Just curious, how often do these moderate quakes occur on the Alpine Fault? Cheers

[NZ @MetZachar]

@Markskipper9 @geonet Looks like an aftershock sequence from the M5.5 a little while back. I'm more concerned about its close proximity to the Alpine Fault.

[NZ @MetZachar]

@UKEQ_Bulletin Here's something for you to look at...an M5.5 just occurred close to the Alpine fault in NZ (about 40km north of Milford). Always a bit unnerving to see a larger one happen so close to an active and loaded fault.
