It has mostly been less than impressive in terms of significant earthquake activity worldwide lately. However, it just now may be showing signs of acting up significantly somewhere. I switched back on my alert mode icon on Twitter. I created a new alert mode icon(shown here) for whenever it becomes more significantly active here in Southern California. So, it may be rare when I use it. I may turn it on whenever more magnitude 4+ quakes start breaking out around here or if there is a swarm that could be raising concern or any unusual activity.
I am not sure if it will be acting up in terms of mag. 3+ around here this week or next week. There is a decent chance of more mag. 3+ in Southern CA anytime or day now. I will be out of state next week. It will be interesting to find out how it will be by mid November. The sequence near Ridgecrest may have died down considerably and there have not been any widely felt aftershocks recently, but there is a good chance of it flaring up again at anytime or within a couple of weeks. That area is not out of the woods yet.
In terms of global earthquake activity, it has been far too quiet for too long. It should start becoming more violently active somewhere by now. A major earthquake within the next 2 weeks is highly likely at this point. It could even happen any moment now somewhere. Regions that may be under concern for significant to potentially major earthquake activity include: Central Asia(such as China), Iran, Turkey, Greece, Philippines, Indonesia, Japan, Northern Mariana Islands, Vanuatu, Tonga, Fiji, Solomon Islands, Loyalty Islands, possibly New Zealand, Papua New Guinea, Kuril Islands, Kamchatka peninsula, Aleutian Islands, possibly Alaska, Chile, Argentina, Peru, Central America... If something else changes, I can always update via Twitter.
