Re: Signs the Volcanic Center in Salton Sea is Venting. Date: 98-10-04 05:40:22 EDT From: frankcnd@mailserv1.mscomm.com (Frank Condon) To: Phikent@aol.com Hi Kent: I'll need a little more time since the word is out and I'm expecting email to arrive with all kinds of reports about the upcoming BIG ONE. Maybe Ed Dames isn't far off in his recent interview by Art Bell! Too bad Art Bell is on safari right now. It seems like the biggest stories always happen while he is away! So far, I've notified you and Stan Deyo who is an expert in reading these thermal anomalies for an opinion. I classify myself as a earthquake researcher & predictor since the Landers '92 event. Recently, Jim Berkland sent me a reply to congratulate me on my timely prediction for the M4.7 near Big Bear Lake this past week. Currently, I'm watching an area along the San Andreas between Palmdale and Wrightwood. You can get to my daily reports from Jim's Syzygy Web-Site and go to the Earthquake Phenomena or Earthquake Predictions Message Board. Also, I have a few past prediction posts in the archives at his site (Not all of them have hit). Note: that recently there was a mysterious loss of all the posts on the Earthquake Prediction Message Board (unfortunately) and only a few of the most current ones are still listed. But, I've kept copies of all of them since August. I use a Flugate Magnetometer and measure daily fluctuations in the fields as a part of my method to predicting earthquakes. I predicted the Mt. San Gorgonio M4.8 last August 16 and another smaller one near Wrightwood right after that one. I Know of Charlie Plyler (ELFrad) and I'm sure he would still remember me too. We met online while I was doing some research on the Fontana Trend. Someday we'll have to compare notes! Also of interest is a Geophysical Research Institute that have posted on their Web-Site an example for its customers of a GPS based geomagnetic survey done in the Armagosa Desert of Death Valley showing "Hidden Volcanoes Under the Sand." I came across that one by accident one day. http://www.swri.edu/4org/d20/gg/amargosa.htm You might want to add this link to the story as it's all related in some way. So, the bottom line is that what you've placed up there is good for the present time. But, I'll be sending you further information as it becomes available. Another tid-bit about the recent M3.0 on the San Andreas Fault. Kate Hutton of Caltech said, " A small quake like this isn't necessarily a cause for alarm, even if it does turn out to be on the San Andreas. However, it is interesting because we don't have too many like it." in her Earthquake Commentary Report located at: http://www.trinet.org/eqreports/comments/October1998.html Here is the URL for my two most recent earthquake predictions: Both are located in an area that I've been watching since August 1, 1998. "http://www.syzygyjob.com/board/?topic=topic1&msg=2466" "http://www.syzygyjob.com/board/?topic=topic1&msg=2427" My most recent Daily Reports from Jim's Web-Site are: "http://www.syzygyjob.com/board/?topic=topic13&msg=1641" "http://www.syzygyjob.com/board/?topic=topic13&msg=1642" "http://www.syzygyjob.com/board/?topic=topic13&msg=1643" "http://www.syzygyjob.com/board/?topic=topic13&msg=1644" "http://www.syzygyjob.com/board/?topic=topic13&msg=1676" It feels great in knowing that soon the whole world will know what they're actually looking at is not in Disneyland after-all! What an E ticket ride that would be... But, it could still happen I guess... Also, thanks for caring and taking the time to do this right away!

Frank... "Geo-Seismic-Labs" ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Subj: GSL-Magnetometer Reading Warning OCT07 Date: 98-10-08 05:42:38 EDT From: frankcnd@mailserv1.mscomm.com (Frank Condon) To: Phikent@aol.com Geo-Seismic Labs Report (c)1998 Wednesday, October 7, 1998 (9:45 PM PDT/0545 GMT981008) Note: 1 Gamma = 1 nanoTesla (nT) = 0.01 mG (milligauss) All readings are based upon an elevation of 3,500 Ft. and taken with a magnetic declination of 13.8 Degrees East of True North. The following data should be placed into a polar chart. Magnetic North 3,900 nT(-400 nT) -9.30% Geographic North 3,800 nT(-350 nT) -8.43% Geo-North-East 3,500 nT(-500 nT) -12.50% Geographic East 1,210 nT(-390 nT) -24.38% Geo-South-East -1,750 nT(+50 nT) +2.93% Geographic South -3,425 nT(-300 nT) -8.05% Geo-South-West -2,915 nT(-450 nT) -13.67% Geographic West -770 nT(-305 nT) -28.37% Geo-North-West 2,075 nT(+25 nT) +1.22% Vertical Down 6,300 nT (-700 nT) -10.00% --------------------------------------------------------------------- The Daily Analysis: Today, there was a 10% decrease in the intensity of the vertical potential field (Z). Also, the (H) component has dropped 9.3% and the (D) component is down 24.38%. The seven day in a row anomaly in the West towards Palmdale registered a divergence of 4 which is an decrease from the previous day of 16.0! That keeps it within my range to call it an eight day in a row anomaly. It seems that the (Z) component peaked out Monday at a new high (7,020 nT) since I started recording these changes in August. That one seems to track the level of solar flare induced geo-magnetic changes of the potential field. seen elsewhere on the Internet. As you'll notice tonight's reading has dropped 10%. The Current Watch: Last Friday, an earthquake on the San Andreas fault 12 mile SE of Palmdale M3.0 was located within two miles of Valyermo, the area where St. Andrews Monastery is at. Right next to that is the Pallet Creek Paleo-Seismic Dig Site. That's real close to the site where I was doing a geophysical field investigation about anomalous well readings. Maybe this M3.0 had something to do with that alleged well anomaly? Soon as I get enough data, I will try and contact the owner of the wells and see what was noticed prior to the earthquake. My major concern with this area was the Seismic Gap that now shows this M3.0 event right smack dab in the middle of it. Others are also reporting a prediction for an earthquake on the San Andreas fault from Parkfield to San Bernardino or even further south than that. UPDATE-Earlier, this evening there was a M2.1 in exactly the same location. The current earthquake activity in Southern California consists of increasing moderate level activity. I'm currently watching the area near Wrightwood so, it would mean something on the order of M4+ is going to occur within the next week in the area along that fault. The current activity is inside of the new area of concern opening to the East and Southeast of here and I posted a prediction for the Big Bear Lake area on 9/29/98. Two earthquakes M3.5 and M4.7 have already occured there. I reopened another prediction for the San Jacinto - San Andreas fault from Wrightwood to the Morongo Valley. I have to change that to from "Palmdale to Morongo Valley" in light of the recent M3.0 foreshock. The seven day in a row repeat for the West anomaly indicates that more activity is on the horizon for the SAF near Wrightwood to Palmdale. Animal activity has increased dramatically this weekend including the area near Yucaipa. A news report last Friday night about animals attacking owners or wild animals otherwise acting bizare! A 24,000 acre brush fire in Southern California east of Riverside near Banning caused a huge plume of dense smoke that shut down the I-60 Freeway in both directions Monday near Beaumont. Two lives were lost when the Fire Dept. lost an aircraft that was helping to put out the blaze. Yesterday, San Marcos in San Diego County was not immune from the same situation as another fire got started in that area. All of this as a consequence of the 7% Humidity Santa Ana Winds we received. It seems that the winds funneled in from the NE direction and were caused by a High Pressure Center over Idaho! Weekly Lab Update: All future projects are on hold until I can catch up with paperwork and analysis of current activity. Still have megabytes of data to go over from the past 30 days of recordings. I hope to be able to start posting my analysis of each event shortly afterwards. The Current Warning: The GOES Satellite according to the University of Hawaii Institute of Volcanology is reporting thermal changes in the Salton Sea area just off-shore of Bombay Beach, Santa Barbara Channel and San Clemente Island. Could be the start of a new vent under the surface of the landlocked Salton Sea! I'll let you know what else is going on as soon as I get the details from my sources. The off-shore anomalies are still open for interpretation. But, it might be due to a possible forming subduction zone off the coast of Southen California. That makes sense to me if we are having symptoms of volcanism in the interior desert areas of Southen California. "Remember those Volcanoes Hidden in the Sand?" " The Seismic gap is still visible and is centered between Palmdale and Cajon Pass." "My prediction for this area was posted on 9/20/98." "The asperities along the entire San Andreas fault gave me the incentive to post a renewed prediction for the Cajon Pass concerning the San Jacinto fault zone." It was posted on October 1, 1998. "The seismic warning for the San Andreas - San Jacinto and San Gabriel Fault zones is still in effect" At this point in time, It's a real crap shoot as to which one will go first! So, keep updated by visiting Syzygy each day for the latest in my predictions. I'm hot in this area and have a major streak going right now! Frank...
