Alaska 7.1 Earthquake, Mysterious Booms
A 7.1-magnitude earthquake struck Alaska early Sunday morning, according to the U.S. Geological Survey. The Alaska quake epicenter hit near Cook Inlet, 162 miles southwest of Anchorage. It was about 50 miles deep. The massive quake follows mysterious booms heard throughout the area before the 2013 quake there.
Joshua Veldstra, a professional photographer who lives in Homer, said the earthquake lasted about 30 seconds.
“When it hit, it was just soft at first, and it just kept getting bigger,” Veldstra said. “It was one of those moments where you didn’t’ know if it was going to get worse or if it was going to calm down.”
The quake was felt by residents of Anchorage, but Anchorage and Valdez police said there were no reports of major damage or injury following the earthquake.
There was no tsunami threat from the quake due to the depth it struck, the National Weather Service said.
Two smaller after shocks registering a 4.0 and a 3.2 struck within 30 minutes after the first one.
Big Booms? Days Gone By and Today
KTUU reported in 2013 that residents from Eagle River to Mat-Su Valley in Alaska had heard booms between 8 p.m. and 10 p.m. on Thursday January 3 in 2013 for which no causes and sources had been found. Parallel to the booms, houses and furniture in buildings shook.
“Are these shakings small tremors which are too slight to be recorded by seismographs (< 2)? And were these small tremors a sign for the 7.5-magnitude temblor centered about 60 miles west of Craig, Alaska and which struck at 1 a.m in 2013?” asks StrangeSounds.com. Were booms heard before today’s quake?
This writer asks if such booms are being heard elsewhere, a possible warning of a big one brewing. Are such booms natural, or possibly US Navy scalar weapon testing, part of its Five-Year Weapon Testing happening today in each major body of water around the United States?

Geoengineering is real, albeit illegal in term of weather modification, yet few scientists admit it, research and report on its impacts. Why not?
WTF? Could you PLEASE explain this quote? “…..which struck at 1 a.m. PST today (Saturday, 05.01.2013)?”
It is NOT 2013. As far as I am able to tell.. the year is 2016…
Ah.. You were referring to incidents of some three years ago.. wish you’d been clearer about it. A sentence like that below is confusing indeed…
” The massive quake follows mysterious booms heard throughout the area before the 2013 quake there.”
So which massive quake follows which mysterious booms? todays? or 2013 ‘s? Were there booms preceding today’s quake? Or just then?
:sigh:
My sincere apologies. The 2013 quake was associated with booms – but the writer was asking if anyone heard similar sounds before this one.
Before the 2002 Vanuatu 6.3 magnitude earthquake, when I lived there, I, along with most everyone else there, heard booms for months before it. We’d often discuss the loud booms, questioning what they could be. Some guessed US military testing. Two days before the quake, very oddly, a US Navy ship docked right off Port Vila and remained until the evening before the quake. Photos of the events before and after the quake, taken by a professional photographer, disappeared from the local shop were he was having them printed. That’s about all I know, but it was enough to have me wondering all these years.
I’ve had an insight: Could it be occurring an underground collapse througout the Globe? Well, I suppose this had occurred to Atlantis as it fades down the waters of a giant tsunami. Possible?

Today is Sunday, January 24, 2016. It is not the year 2013.
Yes, my dear, but as the comments show – this oddity, if it is, continues in other parts of the world. The question asked in 2013 has yet to be sufficiently answered, right?
Umm…I live in Alaska and felt the quake…strong one…no booms could be heard where i live…and it lasted longer than 30 seconds.
Thank you. Mainstream has reported 30 seconds only, so it’s much appreciated to have a first-hand report. Grateful you are all safe and sound.
I live in Oklahoma, aka the new earthquake hotspot of the country. And i have been hearing mysterious loud booms and rumblings coming from the night sky…and they sound alot like the ones i hear people making recordings of on youtube…
I have heard these booms in Mesquite, NV. They are kind of loud sometime to the point where they rattle windoows.
Thank you, Mitch – Is there any fracking in your area/region? How about military weapon testing?
No fracking, and no military testing that I’m aware of.
The booms may be plasma balls…that are being released from earthquakes into the atmosphere…I forget his name, but a Dr., on the Net, several years ago, was discussing his work on this issue…I will try to find his site later and get back to you…some of you may know who I am talking about…I think his name started with the letter “P”.
Funny that I have never heard these sky booms in Vancouver…everywhere else but…?…;) L.
heard booms here in Nevada 1/23/16 in the AM. Also, they heavily sprayed the day before and the day of the booms the sky was completely, I mean COMPLETELY, whited out. And by the way I live in the desert and prior to 1998 the sky was crystal clear 300 days a year now we are sprayed Daily and on the days we are not whited out it looks like china smog with all the haze. So, a big THANK YOU goes out to all the pilots and scientists who have made all this possible!
Yup, this is the exact truth as to how it is in Nevada right now. It can be crystal clear in the morning, then they spray, then it’s just a crappy grey overcast when they get done.
Thor broke a chisel while preparing for earthquakes.
I live in Vancouver where people are selling their homes and leaving in groves. Hmmm wonder why.
Me too, pal, the people I know, are living in la-la land…they are only concerned for that which pertains to them – self absorbed…but, missing out in the fact that, self absorption does not work, if a wave or quake washes or flattens you..;)…Wake up, British Columbia!…maybe they think they are protected becuz of Vancouver Island blocking the coastline of B.C. – Newsflash!…the Georgia Strait/Juan de Fuca, can be inundated by a tsunami which can reach the coastline of Vancouver, etc. – a 9 earthquake has the power potential to push water from both straits onto the coast, as it did in Japan…

Is it a coincidence that this occurred 200 or so miles from Palin’s home just after endorsing Trump?
