Curious: In Dominican Rep a week ago snorkeling-water was unusually rough

[Neurotica]

according to the young man who took us out into the ocean. Could this have been an early sign of the coming earthquake or was it just a coincidence?

1. A simple weather front can cause that, or even a storm many miles away from you.

I snorkel and dive, and I have often had my plans changed by rough water due to weather.

2. A friend of mine told me that when Alaska had a big quake a few years back,

the water in her pool was sloshing, although we felt nothing and nothing registered here (Seattle). Water seems to be a good indicator that something's going on. So maybe there were really mild quakes happening at that time in the area?

3. No, no. That's not a sign of an earthquake.

It means Zeus asked Poseidon to unleash the Kraken.

Edward Cayce told me.

4. I was in Grand Cayman then. It was the cold front coming down from the US.

5. Thanks for the explanation. It never occurred to me to wonder about it until

a friend questioned the possibility this morning.
