    5.8 quake shakes Costa Rican coast

    MEXICO CITY (AP) — The U.S. Geological Survey says a magnitude 5.8 earthquake shook the central and Pacific coastal regions of Costa Rica early Monday morning. There were no immediate reports of injuries or damage.

    The geological survey says the quake, which hit at about 5 a.m. local time (6 a.m. EST), was felt moderately in central and western parts of the Central American country.

    The epicenter was 46 miles (75 kilometers) south of the capital of San Jose at a depth of 17 miles (28 kilometers.)

      there will be wars and rumors of wars, nations will be in distress, there will be earthquakes in diverse places, increasing in frequency like a woman about to give birth. ready or not folks, Jesus is coming. so "get right or get left" because there will be no 2nd rapture and you don't want to be here after the Holy Spirit is taken out of the way leaving evil to consume everything.

        yeah a 5.8 in central america strikes about as often as an F1 or F2 tornado in the midwest. You can now remove your tin foil hat.

      There is also a lot more Volcanic Activity in once though dormant volcanoes and an uptick in those active volcanoes around the world, Winds become extreme when the Moisture is sucked out into stellar space by HAARP Frequencies, Which heats the Ionosphere, drawing moisture from below

      Getting ready fior the "big" one. Are you ready? FEMA isn't. Watch the midwest crack open and California split.

      Earthquakes are occurring more where there are reports of HAARP related phenomenon.---
      So many of these could be Created Quakes, Since there is a News Blackout on real information since FUKUSHIMA, -- possibly a HAARP Related Event.--
    • QXR  •  3 mths ago
      There have been 84 Earthquakes above 5.0, 7 Earthquakes above 6.0 and and 1 Earthquake that registered 7.1 - Since February 1st. -- Many of the Quakes in the 5.0 Plus range were 5.6,5.7, 5.8, 5.9, range. Yet when you go to USGS, the Seismographs are not reflecting the actual events.

    • Houballfan  •  Houston, Texas  •  3 mths ago
      Are they doing hydraulic fracturing in Costa Rica? I thought that was the cause of most earthquakes these days?????
      • Josh 3 mths ago
        No, they are not fracking. They are probably more earthquake prone than California. They do sit on the ring of fire.
