Super Moon March Madness, Earthquakes, Temblors, Tidal Waves and Tsunamis

The doomsday crowd has a new toy to play with.  It is called the super moon.

Everyone knows that gravitational forces of the moon have an effect on the ocean tides of the earth.  Well there are lunatics who think that  the full moon at its perigee to the earth can do more than move some water around.  They think a close up  big moon can cause earthquakes, hurricanes and other natural disasters.  The next super moon is on March 19th.  Naturally this particular  “apocalypse now”  crowd notes that one of the largest earthquakes in recorded history  happened not one week away form this particular super moon.

Others point out that the Katrina hurricane happened near a super moon in 2005.  Also that 9.0 earthquake in Indonesia supposedly happened near an extreme super moon.

As per usual with these matters, respected scientists say that  while you might see an exceptionally low tide or an exceptionally high one, all that other talk is bumpkiss hokum.

However if you look behind that curtain of scientific certainty, you will see some scientists who will admit that an alignment of the sun and the moon might have  effect on things like volcanoes and earthquakes at level  less than one percent.

If you spend much time looking at scientific data  you will note that scientists often consider effects at thresholds below 5% as being insignificant.

It might be a little more honest to say that the available scientific evidence would put the likelihood of a super moon causing an earthquake similar to the  chance that you will be simultaneously struck by lightning and a meteorite on our head this very day.  Carry a sturdy umbrella!
