~~~~~He’s done a lot of different jobs throughout his life, but the guy known as EQ Guy recently signed on at a local radio station near his hometown in Wisconsin. Otherwise just going about his usual routine there when one day he was asked by one of the Dee-Jays if he wanted to talk about earthquakes on the air.
~~~~~“Well,” he replied on the very day that Super Cyclone Pam was making landfall at Vanuatu, “You can just tell them,” he said, and DJ Jaguar proceeded to announce the landfall of Super Cyclone Pam at Vanuatu with 100 mph winds on that day of March 13, 2015. “Pam is not so nice,” were DJ Jaguars words that day, and he continued to ask EQ Guy to talk on many subsequent days.
~~~~~Eventually the EQ Guy had enough happening due to him knowing Major Earthquakes generally follow such landfalls as Pam, that one day when DJ Jag inquired, EQ Guy quickly dashed a few lines out on some scrap paper and went on the air!
~~~~~In that first report EQ Guy stated New Zealand was situated directly on the tectonic plate boundary between the Pacific and Indio/Australian Tectonic Plates and that they should be getting a Major Earthquake at any moment due to that landfall on March 13 of Super Cyclone Pam. Although at some other point he also discussed the fact that a foreshock should probably strike first out in those islands of the Pacific to indicate those plates were moving, these all ended up happening just in the coming days following that first on air report that he has since come to now call his, “Earthquake Minute.”
~~~~~That earthquake at New Zealand was the next thing that happened to EQ Guys brand new radio show project when New Zealand was struck by a 6.4 Richters Earthquake on April 24, 2015. It wasn’t long or just a few Earthquake Minutes later the 7.8 Richters Kathmandu Earthquake struck exactly as EQ Guy had been saying that those tectonic plates would do!
~~~~~Now, The EQ Guy and his “Earthquake Minute” are quickly becoming more and more common to hear on just about every Friday afternoon at his local Community Radio Station WORT-FM 89.9, in Madison, Wisconsin, and also online at http://www.wortfm.org/ between about 4:15 and 4:30pm Central Time during the final 15 minutes of The Real Jaguar Radio Show there.
~~~~~These days, and as of this writing, he’s now following what he expects to be a major California Earthquake as a result of the landfall of Hurricane Blanca at the Baja California Peninsula which he says should mean about a 6.6 to 7.3 Richters Earthquake somewhere around Los Angeles, Palm Springs, or the California-Nevada Region. That landfall, he says, might also come to proceed a possible upcoming Major Aftershock for the Kathmandu, Nepal Region, too! Still working out all the intros and sign-offs to go along with his now more and more regular show appearances there, his favorite way to sign off and turn the show back over to The Real Jaguar these days is “I am the EQ Guy, and this has been Earthquake Minute”!!!
