Over 124 years, 20 Oarfish have washed up on California beaches. Three have washed ashore just since August, 2024. The last 'cluster' was during the months prior to the 1906 Earthquake.
In 2011, 20 Oarfish washed up on Japans Beaches over a few months prior to the Tōhoku 9.0 earthquake and tsunami, after decades of time between rare solo beachings.
They also washed ashore hours before Taiwans devastating April 3, 2024 earthquake.
I have kept an eye on Oarfish sightings ever since Japans 2011 quake. Japanese tradition says that the Oarfish are the 'Messengers from the Sea Kings Palace' that come to warn people of quakes and tsunami. While I agree that solo beachings here and there are not necessarily quake precursors, I still watch to see if it turns into a cluster. Regardless, Oarfish are stunningly beautiful, with bright blue flashing bars of light shaped like lightning across it's body, extending out through it's fins and 'feelers'. It's obviously electrically sensitive, and deep earth movements are known to build up electrical charges.
Hello,
My name is Becca, and I’m working on developing a solution to help people prepare more effectively for natural disasters like floods, wildfires, hurricanes, and tornadoes.
We’re currently in the discovery phase and seeking feedback from individuals who could benefit from or contribute to the app's development. Your insights would be invaluable in shaping a tool that could make a real difference in people’s lives during critical moments.
Would you be open to a brief conversation about your experience with disaster preparedness and what features you’d find most helpful in a solution like this?
Thank you for considering this, and I look forward to the possibility of hearing your thoughts.
Warm regards,
