Update: August 28, 2019

September may be a more active month for Southern California in terms of earthquakes. There could be more significant aftershocks in the Ridgecrest area and there could be more taking place South of there as well. There have been more micro quakes increasing in Southern California recently. The average number of quakes over the last day used to be 25-30. Now, there are up to 40-50. More activity might be heating up here in Southern CA anytime now. It could also hold off for another week. It has been mostly quiet around the world over the past several days with the exception of one strong earthquake in the South Sandwich Islands region. It was a magnitude 6.6 and it happened yesterday.
A very large earthquake might be imminent somewhere at any moment. It could happen today, tomorrow, or next week perhaps. There is an extremely high chance of magnitude 7+ worldwide any moment or day now. Regions to watch include: Indonesia, Papua New Guinea, Northern Mariana Islands, Japan(Ryukyu Islands, Honshu, Hokkaido), Kuril Islands, Kamchatka Peninsula, Aleutian Islands(AK), Central America, Colombia, Ecuador, Peru, Bolivia, Argentina, Chile, Tonga, the Samoas, Vanuatu, Solomon Islands, Philippines, Andaman Islands, Myanmar(Burma), Western China, Tajikistan region, Afghanistan, Pakistan, possibly Iran, Turkey, Greece..
I'm still monitoring the Eastern Mediterranean Sea region. There may still be a potential for a powerful earthquake to occur there. Other potential candidates include the Ryukyu Islands, Central America, Afghanistan or Pakistan, the Northern Mariana Islands, and the Andaman Islands region in the Indian Ocean. More major activity could occur at anytime or it could delay for another week or two.

EQ WATCH: August 25 - September 3, 2019

There is an extremely high potential for magnitude 7 or greater worldwide any moment now or within the next week at this point. There have been some significant earthquakes taking place in parts of the world over the last few days. There is due to be a bigger event any time now. Regions that could be under the gun include: Indonesia, Japan, New Guinea, Papua New Guinea, Northern Mariana Islands, Taiwan, Ryukyu Islands(Japan), Japan(Honshu, Hokkaido, or Kyushu), Kuril Islands, Kamchatka Peninsula, possibly New Zealand, Vanuatu, Tonga, Fiji, Solomon Islands, Santa Cruz Islands, Andaman Islands, Central Asia(Western China, Tajikistan, Afghanistan), possibly Iran, Turkey, Greece, South Sandwich Islands, Chile, Argentina, Peru, Colombia, and/or Central America..
There is also activity taking place in the Central Mid-Atlantic Ridge. I often leave out the Oceanic Ridges because they are underwater and remote regions. Divergent boundaries are less threatening when it comes to tsunamis. Convergent underwater boundaries would be much more dangerous as they are the boundaries capable of the largest earthquakes and generate tsunamis. Closer to home, there might be more aftershocks taking place with the Little Lake sequence once more. There is still a very high chance for more activity in Southern California. There could be a magnitude 4 or greater somewhere in Southern CA anytime now within the next week or two. The Greater Los Angeles area could even feel something within the coming week or two or perhaps any day. It could possibly even happen tonight or even minutes to an hour from now. I do not necessarily mean anything significant, so do not be alarmed.
There just could potentially be something felt by many residents somewhere here in Southern California anytime or day now at this point.
There may also be more magnitude 3-4+ elsewhere in California as well as other areas of the West such as Montana and the Yellowstone area.

EQ WATCH: Update - 8/18/19

There is a very high chance now for magnitude 6-7 or greater worldwide. A strong or major earthquake is of a high likelihood anytime now within the next 5 days so far. After an extremely quiet past few days, a magnitude 5.9 occurred in the Northern Mariana Islands region. The regions that may be under the gun include: Central Asia(Western China, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, or Afghanistan), the Eastern Mediterranean Sea region(Greece or Turkey), Chile, Bolivia, Peru, Ecuador, Central America, Northern Mariana Islands, Japan(Ryukyu Islands, Honshu, or Hokkaido), Kuril Islands, Kamchatka Peninsula, Indonesia, Andaman Islands, New Guinea, Papua New Guinea, Santa Cruz Islands, Tonga, Vanuatu, South Sandwich Islands, and/or possibly the coast of British Columbia.
There could potentially be something more significant looming along the Pacific Northwest Coast. There is also an extremely high chance of magnitude 3-4+ in Southern California anytime or day now. We are due for another round of activity. Something more significant could be on the horizon at this point. There is also a very high potential for activity elsewhere in California such as the Ridgecrest area, Mammoth Lakes, the Bay area, and/or Lake Tahoe.
There may also be more activity taking place in parts of Alaska(Mag. 4+) anytime now or within the next week.

EQ WATCH: August 14 - 25, 2019

At this point, there may or may not be any large and violent earthquake activity going on worldwide somewhere. While a magnitude 6 or greater may occur somewhere at anytime, it may hold off for now. However, there is an extremely high chance of a magnitude 7 or greater somewhere anytime within the next week. It even happen any time now. At the same time, it could delay another week or so. Potential places under the gun include: Indonesia(Sumatra, Java, or Sulawesi, Flores Sea), New Guinea or Papua New Guinea, East Timor/Banda Sea, Solomon Islands, Vanuatu, Tonga, Fiji, New Zealand(South Island), Northern Mariana Islands, Japan(Hokkaido, Honshu, Ryukyu Islands), Kamchatka Peninsula, parts of Central Asia including China, Northern India, Afghanistan, and Pakistan, the Eastern Mediterranean Sea region, potentially somewhere in the Northern Atlantic such as Svalbard, Iceland, or Reykjanes Ridge, Chile, Argentina, Bolivia, Peru, Colombia, and Central America..
Note that some of these mentioned areas of the world may be potential hosts for the next strong earthquake activity. This does not imply that all of these places could go off at once. A large quake may occur somewhere anytime now or a week or 2 weeks from now. A magnitude 7 or greater somewhere within the next week or two is highly likely. If it doesn't happen today or by Friday, it will likely be next week or perhaps the week after that.
The areas in particular that I have been concerned about recently include the Ryukyu Islands(or anywhere between Northern Taiwan and Southern Japan, the Eastern Mediterranean Sea region(includes Eastern Turkey and Southern Greece), Central Asia(Afghanistan, Pakistan, Tajikistan, Kyrgyzstan, Northwestern China), Central America, and the Northern Mariana Islands. In terms of activity in Southern California, there is still a very high chance of magnitude 3 or greater anytime or day now. However, there may not be that much taking place for now, perhaps until this weekend or next week.
Another round of activity is due here. Something more significant could potentially be on the rise within the next 2 weeks or possibly sooner. Right now, there may be little taking place, but we are due for more activity. There is also a very high chance for more magnitude 3-4+ elsewhere in California. There could be something potentially heating up in the Mammoth Lakes area. There may also be activity increasing in other parts of the Western States including Nevada, the Yellowstone area, and/or the Pacific Northwest.

EQ WATCH: August 8-16th, 2019

There is a very high likelihood of magnitude 7 or greater somewhere in the world anytime now to within the next week. There could also be more significant volcanic activity taking place somewhere. A powerful earthquake somewhere may be imminent any moment now or within the next 1-2 weeks at this point. I have determined the candidates for the next possible major earthquake or more strong earthquake activity: Ryukyu Islands(the region between Northeastern Taiwan and Southwestern Japan), possibly the Eastern Mediterranean region from Greece to Turkey, Afghanistan, Pakistan, possibly Iran, Myanmar(Burma), Andaman and Nicobar Islands, Indonesia(Sumatra, Java, Sulawesi, Halmahera), East Timor, the Philippines(Mindanao, Samar, Luzon), Taiwan, Japan(Hokkaido and/or Honshu) Kuril Islands, Aleutian Islands, Papua New Guinea, Santa Cruz Islands, Tonga, Vanuatu, Loyalty Islands, Kermadec Islands(NZ), Chile, Argentina, Bolivia, Peru, possibly Colombia, Central America..
The regions in particular that I am watching more closely now are the Ryukyu Islands or the area between Northeastern Taiwan and Southwestern Japan, the Eastern Mediterranean Sea region(from Greece to Western Turkey), and the Afghanistan and Pakistan region. There has been more significant activity taking place in those areas most recently. However, the next major earthquake in the world may also not hit any of the 3 named regions.
It can also likely occur somewhere else.
The Ryukyu Trench is capable of a very large, tsunamigenic earthquake. It also is known to have a number of active volcanoes. The most recent earthquakes that have occurred in the area have raised concerns. Meanwhile, closer to home, there have not been any large aftershocks from the Little Lake sequence since last month. That does not mean that it is over at all. There is also due to be more activity heating up here in Southern California anytime or within the next week.
