EQ WATCH: April 2-8, 2020

There is a high potential for magnitude 6 or greater in the world anytime now or within the next 5-7 days so far. At the same time, there may not be anything serious going on anywhere for right now. However, the chances for magnitude 6 or even 7 or greater within the next week are extremely high so far. Something big could still happen somewhere today. The regions that would be potential candidates for the next large earthquake(s) include: Chile, Peru, Ecuador, Colombia, Central America, Philippines, Northern Mariana Islands, Japan(Ryukyu Islands, Honshu, or Hokkaido), Aleutian Islands, Gulf of Alaska, coast of British Colombia, Central Asia(parts of China, Afghanistan, Pakistan), Turkey, Greece, Papua New Guinea, Indonesia, East Timor, Tonga..
There has not been enough going on here in Southern California lately. It has been very quiet for a long time. There was only one magnitude 3+ South of the Garlock Fault and North of the border last month and it was close to the Mexico border. It was more than 2 weeks ago. Much more activity is expected within the next 2-3 weeks or even sooner. The potential for a more significant event is increasing. There may also be more taking place elsewhere in California and/or other parts of the Western U.S. anytime or day now.
