New Madrid Fault Zone

It wasn't big enough to cause any damage, but an earthquake Wednesday along the New Madrid Fault was reportedly felt by dozens in Missouri based on initial reports.

I am not a scientist and I'm not saying that eclipses and earthquakes are related, but I do find it interesting that a mini-swarm of 5 quakes has just hit the New Madrid, Missouri area just days before Monday's historic total solar eclipse that will cross that region.

Well, this was certainly unexpected. A strange earthquake felt by hundreds in the St. Louis, Missouri area has now been confirmed by the USGS.

It's quietly been a busy year along the New Madrid Fault Zone in Missouri. While there have fortunately not been many quakes big enough to garner much attention, the USGS says there have already been at least 63 felt quakes in the region in 2024.

Paint me skeptical. A new report claims that Missouri and other states are 'running out of power' and that rolling blackouts are inevitable. I've done some digging into data and the idea isn't as crazy as you might think.

We know that Missouri would be a likely early target if a worst-case scenario first strike nuclear attack ever happened, but there's a new area that I've never heard mentioned before that has emerged and it could be devastating.
