]]> Comment on Durban North earth tremor? by Deseree Russouw http://theridgeonline.co.za/durban-north-earth-tremor/#comment-5994 Deseree Russouw Wed, 16 May 2012 17:33:28 +0000 http://theridgeonline.co.za/?p=6063#comment-5994 Often when a tremor or earthquake occurs, it can sound like an oncoming freight train, sometimes like an explosion or boom, as sound waves are released when the earth cracks and moves, it is very possible that it was a very small earthquake, as tremors rarely cause damage and ground normally can open with a quake, very seldom a tremor. Much of Durban, actually most of Durban is built on reclaimed land so if a huge quake does hit us a tremendous amount of damage could be expected as happened at Kobi in Japan. Another factor that would definitely influence damage to building s and houses etc, is that no building or home in Durban is built to earthquake standards, basically built to withstand a major earthquake, The only city is South Africa that has legislation stating that all new government buildings and schools have to be able to withstand earthquakes is Cape Town Often when a tremor or earthquake occurs, it can sound like an oncoming freight train, sometimes like an explosion or boom, as sound waves are released when the earth cracks and moves, it is very possible that it was a very small earthquake, as tremors rarely cause damage and ground normally can open with a quake, very seldom a tremor.

Opening your windows will increase the turbulences and eventually cost you fuel. If you can, use only the ventilation system of your car. I cannot really gauge this against using the air conditioner. I believe that opening your windows at low speeds and using the air conditioner at high speeds gives you better fuel economy. Close your windows will also help to save petrol, why?
