@@janetpattison8474 My point is that making a disaster declaration is realistically outside the scope of his authority as a county judge and thus his "declaration" holds little weight. It falls more under the duties of the Emergency Management Coordinator, Jay Callaway, and, while he may be coordinating with the TDEM, the level of damage he reported was clearly not significant enough to get the governor to get more directly involved. The governor of Florida actually has direct authority to activate and deploy Florida's state agencies, including the Florida National Guard, and his declaration gets them to start activating appropriate emergency contingency plans. All the other emergency declarations for Hurricane Debby have been by other state governors or senior emergency management officials not by county judges. So what exactly does the judge's declaration do? Realistically, nothing of significance. County and county law enforcement and fire/rescue were already have been responding to calls for help while state/federal agencies are outside his control.

I was in Marin County across from SF in the 1989 Loma Prieta earthquake of 6.9. Being in an open field at the moment, it felt pretty cool. Not cool for the 67 lives lost in the city. These Texas quakes are going to have to rumble harder to get my attention.

Blind faults can get lubricated due to salt water disposal in the deep injection wells. It is frack waste fluid related. Monitoring can pin point the epicenters and foci of the EQs and relate those locations to active disposal wells.
My understanding is that earthquakes have been increasing tremendously in Oklahoma, where oil drilling and fracking has been active for decades. But, of course, such activities in Texas, adding in over draining aquifers, couldn’t possibly be affecting Texas fault lines.
Oil drilling and fracking STOPPED years ago thanks to.... never mind..... my dad was an OIL MAN and we lived in and around the oil fields. Don't even start with me, ycb.
I used to drive through Hermleigh three or four times a year to visit family in Lubbock. I don't know of much fracking out there, but there are HUGE wind farms there.

5.1 will get your attention though....but when you get up into the 6.1's and up, they will really shake you up. My son was in the one in San Francisco in 1989..that is an earthquake. I have felt 5.1 and 5.3 only and they can scare the crap out of you. lol

This one was probably just a little further downstream" from the previous earthquakes. That professor was right in comparing the earthquakes to ripple effects in a pond. The next one will probably be around the same magnitude and a little more east northeast from this one (or back to between the last one and this one if the ripple was a standing wave), following the kratom or the flow path (east through Texas and then northeast through Arkansas and Missouri).

It's caused by them then blamed on others.. That's how they play. They place explosives in Key places etc.. To start the process. As they do in many different ways at every level. To control.

They didn't need to frack in 1930. You could practically hammer a tube into the ground and tap oil if you hit the right spot. So much so it was even originally meemed in the '60s as the Beverley Hillbillies. Come and listen to my story 'Bout a man named Jed A poor mountaineer, Barely kept his family fed. And then one day He was shootin' at some food, And up through the ground came a-bubblin' crude. Oil that is, black gold, Texas tea. .. by 1930 Texas was 25% of the world's global oil production.
@@cynthiapereira8403 That's exactly my point. If you pump something out of the ground (oil) or into the ground (water/fracking), the earth is going to move. You don't need a geology degree to figure that one out...
Well I'm going to blow your mind each time you do frock welding out there and it breaks that ground it'll spider out to other areas causing a New Madrid fault but if indeed it's because of the Killeen Mountain out there that is considered to be a dormant volcano then you can consider the magma flow underneath the ground that is breaking the ground which will also make it spider out
Fracking is stupid. It brings up muddy oil very expensive to refine, very low yield. That, btw, is why Venezuela and Nigeria have tons of oil but are nowhere near as rich as Saudi Arabia (which has "clean" petroleum) - the petroleum in those places is muddy junk, just like fracked petroleum.
If you were sleeping, that's called a dream. Especially, and I'm guessing...you haven't had any personal experiences with giant/dinosaurs walking around, to really know what that feels like. 🦖
Imagine what earthquakes in Texas would do to their poorly constructed homes. Hopefully this doesn’t become the norm because structural construction inspection is not really a thing out there.

Uh, yeah...did you know that if Yellowstone erupts that you might as well put your head between your knees and kiss your arse goodbye? It is the most active place in North America and it is huge. Anytime you have hot springs (Old Faithful) there is volcanic activity (and fault lines). Fault lines are everywhere in the world.
I just told my friend that you'll know we are in trouble when there is an earthquake in TX. 35 years alive, all spent in TX.. never heard of this and in fact have always been told that the soil here is too soft to really feel one (?)
I live in Midland, Texas and I have yet to find anybody that felt anything! Around 1994 there was an earthquake in fort Stockton that we felt in Midland.
Guys, it doesn't have to be fracking at play, just the huge amount of oil removed from the crust. Lots of sinkholes by Snyder for instance. These earthquakes happen several per month, just once in a while the media picks up the story. Use the USGS earthquake map.
California isn't the only place that has Earthquakes pretty much the entire west coast including Nevada and Arizona has Earthquakes time to time. Alaska and also the New Madrid faultline in along the Mississippi River in Missouri Tennessee Arkansas and Northwest Mississippi causes earthquakes.

This is an expert: He studies earthquakes and states that 5.1 happen frequently across the country each day. He further states that two 5.1 quakes within two days (near same location) need further investigation. After discussion with other experts it was decided they would wait to see if any further activity occurs. If there is a third or fourth event there will be no question that something is happening and no further investigations are needed as quakes one and two were proven not coincidences.
I live in Snyder Texas (scurry county) Never have I felt anything like the earthquakes the past few days! We have always had them ever since I was in diapers but they only rattled windows these past 5 have shook my whole house! Just had another one 10 minutes ago lol it was only a 4.3!

And up through the ground came a-bubblin' crude.
Oil that is, black gold, Texas tea.
.. by 1930 Texas was 25% of the world's global oil production.
@@dancox3251that’s the point, though, right? We’re sucking everything out from under us. No wonder there are also sink holes everywhere.
@@cynthiapereira8403 That's exactly my point. If you pump something out of the ground (oil) or into the ground (water/fracking), the earth is going to move. You don't need a geology degree to figure that one out...
@@dancox3251 One of my all time favorite TV program theme songs.
Well I'm going to blow your mind each time you do frock welding out there and it breaks that ground it'll spider out to other areas causing a New Madrid fault but if indeed it's because of the Killeen Mountain out there that is considered to be a dormant volcano then you can consider the magma flow underneath the ground that is breaking the ground which will also make it spider out
Drill baby drill
Are you a geological engineer?
Fracking is stupid. It brings up muddy oil very expensive to refine, very low yield. That, btw, is why Venezuela and Nigeria have tons of oil but are nowhere near as rich as Saudi Arabia (which has "clean" petroleum) - the petroleum in those places is muddy junk, just like fracked petroleum.
You damn right Trump 2024!

Felt it while I was sleeping in Arlington, Texas this morning. It felt like a giant/dinosaur walking....🙏🏽
If you were sleeping, that's called a dream. Especially, and I'm guessing...you haven't had any personal experiences with giant/dinosaurs walking around, to really know what that feels like. 🦖
It’s either the oil drills cracking the plates or Goku powering up for a battle
It’s over 9,000
somehow I doubt this is the strongest. they said that of Turkeys one in the last 2 years so I did a search, and NO it was not.
Fracking!
It's just Goku fighting Buu, getting that SS3 transformation fired up.
Goku for sure, no earthquake in Texas.
Imagine what earthquakes in Texas would do to their poorly constructed homes. Hopefully this doesn’t become the norm because structural construction inspection is not really a thing out there.
First Yellowstone eruption and now 5.1 earthquake in Texas, I wonder if it's related?
GOD is getting mad.
I thought the same thing..

Uh, yeah...did you know that if Yellowstone erupts that you might as well put your head between your knees and kiss your arse goodbye? It is the most active place in North America and it is huge. Anytime you have hot springs (Old Faithful) there is volcanic activity (and fault lines). Fault lines are everywhere in the world.
I just told my friend that you'll know we are in trouble when there is an earthquake in TX. 35 years alive, all spent in TX.. never heard of this and in fact have always been told that the soil here is too soft to really feel one (?)
There are old fault lines all over West Texas.
Drill baby drill may be what we shouldn’t be doing.
We need to vote for more drilling and fracking.
Has nothing to with with quakes

Guys, it doesn't have to be fracking at play, just the huge amount of oil removed from the crust. Lots of sinkholes by Snyder for instance. These earthquakes happen several per month, just once in a while the media picks up the story. Use the USGS earthquake map.
I thought California got the Earth Quakes.... Does fracking cause earthquake drilling for oil....
California isn't the only place that has Earthquakes pretty much the entire west coast including Nevada and Arizona has Earthquakes time to time. Alaska and also the New Madrid faultline in along the Mississippi River in Missouri Tennessee Arkansas and Northwest Mississippi causes earthquakes.
Fracking can cause earthquakes.
@@donadams8345source?
No, fracking is the smallest piece of the puzzle. Salt water disposal is the issue.

Exactly, no chance of contamination of aquifers. Right?
We felt it in San Antonio in our third floor office building Friday.
Praying for Texas in Jesus name!!!
They need to stop fraking, it is accumulative.

He was a carpenter and hes long gone ...your on your own...

George Dunham of KTCK 1310 AM blames it all on fracking.
They all blame fracking because they are stupid. .
What was going on centuries ago ?? Way before fracking. Bet the idiot can't explain that one, can he !!!😂
Drilling, fracking = stress techtonic plates = earthquakes

nope
You have an excuse for the Ring of Fire also?

Yeah got guisers blowing and earthquakes, I feel like something's up
Texas has tornados and now earthquakes.
Hurricanes, heatwaves, and droughts, too.
I actually felt a hard shake for approximately 2-3 seconds at 4:00 - 5:00 am this morning. I think that I just felt a tiny shake at 11:26 pm tonight.
Definitely felt it in Irving and it lasted about 45 seconds.
Weight compresses soil, digging exposes compounds in soil loosening it therefore causing surrounding areas to "balance" out
It's the ponderous weight of thousands of wind turbines in west Texas that's causing most of their earthquakes.
This is an expert:
He studies earthquakes and states that 5.1 happen frequently across the country each day.
He further states that two 5.1 quakes within two days (near same location) need further investigation.
After discussion with other experts it was decided they would wait to see if any further activity occurs.
If there is a third or fourth event there will be no question that something is happening and no further investigations are needed as quakes one and two were proven not coincidences.
You could stop Fracking...that could help stop some of the problem...
I live in Snyder Texas (scurry county) Never have I felt anything like the earthquakes the past few days! We have always had them ever since I was in diapers but they only rattled windows these past 5 have shook my whole house! Just had another one 10 minutes ago lol it was only a 4.3!
It's not fracking people there are two countries at war that live in the center of the earth and sometimes missiles hit the roof!
🤣
Lol. Needs to be studied to see if fracking could have played a role. Gee let me think. The epicenter was in the middle of oil fields. Smh 🕊️🕊️🕊️

Guess they need more fracking ?
Lived in Texas my whole life, as soon as I travel west there’s an earthquake?
Oil drilling, electric transmission lines, power plants, solar, hydroelectric all can cause weak points for the electromagnetic waves to travel along.
Felt here in Dallas too. And this wasn’t the first time in last 2 years either.
i felt more like a tremor around 1-2 am in royse city at the beginning of the week. i have been on a 8.6 earthquake and many minor ones and this felt like a more like tremor than an earthquake (unless earthquakes are different in texas)
They different and if you notice it's out in West Texas where they do all that Fracking and Oil Drilling
Really? You were in Chille in 1922? Why do people do this; are you getting internet points by impressing us somehow?
yeaa and i caused a 8.9 with my lady last night!!!
Where was there an 8.6 quake that you experienced?
Could be results of fracking.
