#physics #earthquake **Thrust at termination of rift** This indicates a very messing ending of the rifting for the large quake. Thrusts give the highest pgv pulses with the most damage. This is a classic '10 years of terror' scenario. I was expecting a large cross-fault like the upper fault to dissipate the end stresses.

A small chance that the Pacific cold phase is slowing down, but it still will be cold until the end of the year. I hope it switches for my Tahiti trip.
#physics #earthquake **New earthquake where I thought there was a stress imbalance** This is thrust in a rift, so I am flabbergasted. If it extends left and right, then it is what I predicted.
#physics **UVC and Covid** I'm surprised that the medical power group is still going for hepa filters when this is the way to go. I think their filter views are an extension of masks, which are generally useless.

I've the UVC/titania filters in the house. They give a fresh outdoor feeling and may be the answer to indoor air problems, especially that 'dead air' feeling.
#physics #weather **Atlantic plumes drift down again** The Gulf Stream has had an 'up and down' moment. Those Atlantic plumes are on a path downward. That gives the only winter warmth to the UK. The plumes are fighting a big cold air blob from Siberia, which has a perfect arcuate front. All is at a standstill.
#physics #earthquake **West Texas earthquakes get bigger** they continue to inject and the earthquakes get bigger. Oklahoma was the same, but they stopped when the price of natgas tanked.
#physics #weather **State of the Oceans** No great change.

#physics #weather **Ottawa ice used as climate defence**
Everybody in Canada loves the mild winter. The physics is that extreme cold spilling out of the Arctic has created and pushed down Pacific storms, giving us that nice, dry Pacific air. In Huntsville, there are no snowmobiles on the ice.
*That view was echoed by Canada’s environment minister, Steven Guilbeault, who said Tuesday, “This is yet another example of how our climate is changing in Canada.”*
Descended from Unix freaks, I evolved to Linux. Some people might consider me old at 60+, but I'm suing the world to get my age down to 30.
I have a blog https://ontario-geofish.blogspot.com/
and it is read by 8 people. My formal education is in an extinct branch of science called geophysics. Since there was no money in it, I went to engineering. I've done tunnels, radwaste thingies, etc.
