EQ WATCH: April 19-30

There is now an extremely high potential for magnitude 7 or greater worldwide anytime now or within the next week or two - two weeks at the longest at this point. There may even be a particularly strong and violent earthquake imminent somewhere in the world anytime or day now. Regions of concern include: Andaman and Nicobar Islands region(India), Myanmar(Burma) Western China, Tajikistan, Afghanistan, Pakistan, Northern India, Iran, Turkey, Southern Greece, Indonesia(Sumatra, Java, Sulawesi, Bali, Pulau Sumbawa and Flores), Flores Sea region, East Timor, Banda Sea region, New Guinea, Papua New Guinea, Philippines(Mindanao, Luzon), Northern Mariana Islands, Japan(Honshu, Hokkaido, Ryukyu Islands), Kamchatka Peninsula and Kuril Islands, Aleutian Islands and Southern Alaska, Solomon Islands, Vanuatu, Tonga, Fiji, Kermadec Islands, possibly New Zealand, Chile, Argentina, Peru, Ecuador, Central America, and Mexico.
It does not look like much is going on anywhere right now, but it may suddenly become extremely active at least somewhere at any moment or any day. It may not act up now or even tomorrow, but at least within the next two weeks, more major earthquake activity is due to strike somewhere. At the same time, something could happen at any moment. There has also not been anymore noticeable activity here in Southern California this week. There is due to be more within the next week or two - magnitude 3-4 or greater. Something more significant could be around the corner. It could suddenly spring up on us any day. It is best to be vigilant even when there is nothing going on at all and having not been active in a long time.
There might also be more activity warming up elsewhere in California such as the Sierras with a very high chance of mag. 3-4+ any time or day now or within the next week or two. More activity could be heating up in other parts of the Western U.S. such as Nevada, Utah, Wyoming, Montana, and the Pacific Northwest.
