<title>Earthquake lights (reply)</title>
<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Interesting. I had heard of these but never seen them. With that much energy being released, it would make sense that there are all sorts of ripple effects. Animals acting weird before a big earthquake is one. I remember reading somewhere that in Thailand before anybody even knew the tsunami was coming, elephants pulled their stake out of the ground and ran for higher ground.</p>
<p>So, if we all want our own earthquake predictor, we only need to get an elephant!</p>

<title>Earthquake lights</title>
<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="https://www.9news.com.au/world/morocco-earthquake-videos-strange-lights-may-be-phenomenon-reported-for-centuries-scientists-say/97d4bc28-2e04-4461-b771-000ead4ac773">9 News:</a> <em>Reports of &quot;earthquake lights&quot; like the ones seen in videos captured before Friday&#039;s 6.8-magnitude earthquake in Morocco go back centuries to ancient Greece.</em></p>
<p><em>Sometimes, the lights may appear similar to ordinary lightning, or they may be like a luminous band in the atmosphere akin to polar aurora.</em></p>
<p><em>Other times they resemble glowing spheres floating in midair.<br />
They may also look like small flames flickering or creeping along or near the ground or larger flames emerging from the ground.</em></p>
<p>Some Prof: <em>Forty years ago, it was impossible. If you saw them nobody would believe what you saw.</em></p>
<p>I&#039;ve seen this twice.  First time was during 921 when i saw a light running along the horizon, which i initially thought was power lines going down.  Second time was in Dulan when the earthquake happened under my house - i looked out &amp; saw a green luminous flickering light that appeared to be coming out of the ground.  Similar color to that in the photo from Morocco, but closer &amp; more like pulsing tongues - spreading out close to the ground.  Like lightning in movement but slower.</p>
<p>The second time was more incredible coz it seemed to be everywhere. Both times it was during the earthquake, which is already a shock, so a total trip.  Also saw some weird lights a couple of days before 921 that i assumed was lightning.</p>
