More significant earthquake activity has been increasing worldwide. A magnitude 6 earthquake occurred off the coast of Puerto Rico the other night and shortly after, a magnitude 5.8 struck Pakistan killing 38 people. There is due to be even larger earthquakes taking place in the world at any time. A magnitude 7 or larger anytime now or within the coming week or two is likely. The potential candidates for a major earthquake anytime now include: Indonesia, Papua New Guinea, Solomon Islands, Santa Cruz Islands, Tonga, Vanuatu, Philippines, Northern Mariana Islands, Japan(Honshu, Hokkaido, Ryukyu Islands), Kuril Islands, Aleutian Islands, Andaman Islands region(North of Sumatra), Central Asia, the Eastern Mediterranean Sea region, Chile, Argentina, Peru, and Central America.
The list is never very different. I list all of the Western Ring of Fire because it is always very seismically active. Indonesia, Papua New Guinea, the Southwestern Pacific, Japan, and Chile are among the most active places. Significant quakes occur in those places most often. An area that is not as active that I have been watching consistently lately is the Eastern Mediterranean Sea region. There have been more earthquakes taking place there lately. I am also just now beginning to watch the Caribbean Sea region since the strong tremor that occurred near Puerto Rico the other day.
Puerto Rico and other Caribbean countries seldom have strong earthquakes. Puerto Rico and the Dominican Republic have small quakes all the time - below magnitude 4. It is possible another large quake could occur in that region. I have most recently been aware that some activity has been occurring the the region of South central Siberia and Mongolia. There is a very high chance of more mag. 3-4+ in Southern California any moment now or within the next 5-7 days so far. There is still potentially more to start taking place here.
We should be heading into more active times by now. There may also be more seismic activity occurring elsewhere in California and the Western U.S.
