Shaky, Rollar Coaster January

The weather is warm, it's cold, it's really warm, it's really cold and it's mostly dry; that will sum up January so far in Central Va. A pattern change in this La Nina winter is bringing more snow to the ski areas (and everyone else) in the western US but only little shots of moisture here in the east. Be patient, there is always change. Today is sunny but cold, hints of frozen or freezing moisture are in the near forecast but for the most part, the weather will be a little above average for temperatures.
The Central Va. Equake Zone rumbled back to our notice yesterday with two 2.5 quakes (8:08am and 4:??pm) and a 2.0 after 11am. All 3 in different spots but all 3 in locations of other aftershocks since the big rockin' on Aug 23. It's almost 5 months since the big shake and, as predicted, the shakes continue. They are less frequent but that just makes them all the more nerve racking.
Earth is just doing what is does, enjoy your ride.
CONGRATS TO ALL EARTH SCIENCE STUDENTS FOR A GREAT JOB ON YESTERDAY'S TESTS!!!!!
