New EQ Alert: New Madrid, Illinois, Chicago!!! Up To 5.9!!!

Landfall of Hurricane Barbara at the far Southern tip of Mexico bearing due North, actually just to the East of Due North, will now create a new source of earthquake energy this time heading directly for New Madrid, Missouri as well as Cairo, Illinois and straight up across Illinois to Chicago! I always want to say any of these places could shake immediately just due to not wanting to wait to send out this brand new EQ Alert, but also because sometimes they actually will shake in the first several hours after such a landfall. With windspeeds reported at 75 mph of course making it a Hurricane, I might also guess the gusts as high as 90! Additionally down the road Kazakhstan, Nepal, and Novosibirsk will also be directly in line for some of this new earthquake energy however with the maximum being around 5.9 for those areas as well they shouldn't get it too bad unless it's a direct hit at a population center. On the other hand if New Madrid, Illinois, and Chicago is a direct hit on a heavily populated area it could affect a million people. . . around Chicago who you could say are about overdue for a major earthquake or at least a good garden variety Illinois Shaker anyways!!!
