EQ ALERT: June 24, 2020

A magnitude 5.8 earthquake occurred 10 miles SSE of Lone Pine, California at 10:40 A.M. It should be no surprise to us as that region - the Eastern California Shear Zone and Western Nevada has been active over the past year. I suspected after there has been some activity occurring in that area, something bigger was probably coming. It must have been triggered by events and ongoing aftershock activity in surrounding areas.

I also will not be surprised if today's quake is a foreshock to an even larger event. As much as it also may not happen, be aware and prepared in case it does if you are in that area. There has also been more signs of activity heating up here in Southern California. More magnitude 4+ might be on the rise any day now. There could also still be more serious earthquake activity occurring in other more active parts of the world somewhere.

The Northern Mariana Islands, Ryukyu Islands, Myanmar, Indonesia, Papua New Guinea, Ecuador, Iceland, or the Aleutian Islands are some candidates that may have more strong EQs anytime or day now.

Update: June 23, 2020

A magnitude 7.4 struck Oaxaca, Mexico this morning. Buildings have collapsed and tsunami waves of 2.3 feet were observed. So far, there has reported to be one death resulting from this event. There still may be more serious activity taking place in the world. Not long after the major earthquake in Mexico, a mag. 6.0 occurred in the Northern Mariana Islands region.

There have still been no signs of it acting up in Southern California at all today so far. There might be a lot more following this very quiet period here. More magnitude 4 or greater should be on the rise by next week or later this week if it continues like this all day. There is still a decent chance it could change later on today or this evening.

Update: June 21, 2020

A magnitude 6.0 just occurred off the coast of Northern Iceland at 7:07 P.M. local time. The potential threat for more large earthquakes worldwide still looms. Other regions that may be of concern include Indonesia(Sumatra, Java, Molucca or Banda Sea region), Papua New Guinea, Santa Cruz Islands region, Tonga, Kermadec Islands(New Zealand), Batan Islands(Philippines), Northern Mariana Islands, Ryukyu Islands(Japan), possibly Taiwan, Aleutian Islands(Alaska), Myanmar, Andaman Islands(India), Greece, Central America, South Sandwich Islands..

There has been more or less heating up in Southern California so far. However, it has been a little bit more active than much of yesterday. Magnitude 4+ earthquakes may be imminent any day now. There should be much more taking place here within the next week. It could start up today or tomorrow, but I will be playing it by ear. There may also be more activity heating up in Central California. More noticeable aftershocks are likely in Nevada. There may also be more going on in the Searles Valley area as well as the Mammoth Lakes area.

Outlook for Southern California - 6/20/20

It has been slowly showing signs of more activity, but then becoming extremely quiet for several hours at a time over the last several days. However, they[micro quakes - mag. 1s and lower 2s] became more frequent today. However, it was not very impressive. I will not be surprised if it even continues like this well into the week. There is due to be more magnitude 4+ in this region any day now. It could happen later tonight, tomorrow, or perhaps later next week. The longer it remains like this, the more activity we'll be experiencing later.

More magnitude 3+ aftershocks may continue to occur in the Searles Valley area this week and/or next week. 

June 20, 2020

More significant activity has started increasing once more in parts of the world so far. So far, there is a very high chance of mag. 6+ anytime or day now somewhere. There is even a strong potential for another magnitude 7 or greater somewhere. Regions to watch would include: Papua New Guinea, Solomon Islands, Tonga, Fiji, Vanuatu, Kermadec Islands, Northern Mariana Islands, Indonesia(Sumatra, Java, Sulawesi, Molucca Sea or Banda Sea region), Andaman Islands, Batan Islands(Philippines), Ryukyu Islands(Japan), Japan(Hokkaido, Honshu, or Kyushu), Kamchatka Peninsula or possibly the Cherskiy Range of Russia, Aleutian Islands(Alaska, USA), Greece, Iceland, Central America, Chile or Bolivia..

There has been some more activity increasing in Southern California earlier. There is due to be mag. 4+ any time or day now. There may also be more going on in other parts of California. Nonstop aftershocks continue in Nevada. More aftershocks may also likely be on the rise in Idaho. There is also more activity increasing in Southern and Northern Alaska. More mag. 4+ may be on the rise in either of those areas.

June 19, 2020 - Outlook

There are continuous aftershocks taking place in the Kermadec Islands region. There is still a very high chance of more large earthquake activity in parts of the world. There could also be a strong aftershock occurring in the same region where Thursday's magnitude 7.4 occurred. At the same time, it could end up mellowing out again out there. Places that may be of concern include: Ryukyu Islands, Taiwan, Batan Islands, Andaman Islands, Myanmar, Hindu Kush region, Greece, Japan(Honshu, Hokkaido), Kamchatka Peninsula, Aleutian Islands, Indonesia(Sumatra, Java, Banda Sea region), Solomon Islands, Northern Mariana Islands, Chile, Central America...

The activity has slowly started to rise again here in Southern California. There is a very high chance of magnitude 3 or even 4+ this weekend or anytime now within the week ahead. There is due to be a lot more taking place out here. More aftershocks are taking place in Nevada and there also may be more activity taking place in the Searles Valley and Mammoth Lakes area of California. There may also be more mag. 4+ in Alaska. There could also be more activity taking place in Northern Alaska or the Yukon area.

June 18, 2020

Just over an hour ago, a magnitude 7.4 occurred in the Kermadec Islands region. Last night, I tweeted that the chances of mag. 6+ somewhere in the world have spiked again as I was going to bed. Earlier yesterday, I made a post in this blog, but took it off because I did not want to jump the gun just yet. That earthquake did not occur on land or anywhere populous. There were also no reports of a tsunami impacting any communities elsewhere thus far. That being said, there still could be more large earthquake activity taking place in parts of the world anytime now so far.

Regions to watch out for include: Myanmar(a magnitude 5 just now occurred there), Southwestern Pacific Ocean(Tonga, Vanuatu, Solomon Islands, Fiji, Kermadec Islands), Papua New Guinea, Indonesia(Sumatra, Java, Sulawesi, Molucca or Banda Sea region), Northern Mariana Islands, Batan Islands region(Philippines), Taiwan, Ryukyu Islands(Japan), Andaman Islands region, Tajikistan, Afghanistan, Pakistan, Greece/Eastern Mediterranean region, Aleutian Islands(Alaska), Kamchatka Peninsula..

However, it could also become relatively quiet again where that could be it for now, but there is still a high potential for more serious activity any time now or this weekend. More activity finally started taking place in Southern California yesterday evening. A magnitude 3.2 occurred 13 miles NW of Ojai - The first magnitude 3 and above in 2 weeks. This morning, it looks like it has died down a bit, but there is still a high chance of it heating up again. There is also a high potential for more taking place elsewhere in California such as the Tehachapi area(and Central California), the Searles Valley, as well as Northern California or Oregon(the Pacific Northwest). More aftershocks may continue in Nevada as well as Idaho. There could also potentially be more taking place over in Utah.

Update: June 14, 2020

There is a lot of significant earthquake activity going on in the world so far. There is an extremely high chance of a major quake somewhere any moment now or any day at this point. Regions to watch out for include: The Northern Mariana Islands, Papua New Guinea, Ryukyu Islands, Taiwan, Turkey, Iran, Northern India, Myanmar, Andaman and Nicobar Islands, Indonesia(Sumatra, Java, Sulawesi, Halmahera, the Banda Sea region), East Timor, Solomon Islands, Tonga region, Kermadec Islands region, Chile, Argentina, Peru, Central America, Japan(Honshu, Kyushu, or Hokkaido), Kuril Islands, Aleutian Islands, Iran..
There just now may be more activity increasing in Southern California again any moment now. There is due to be more magnitude 3-4+ any time now. There is a very high likelihood of magnitude 3 or greater sometime this week in Southern California if nothing happens today. There is due to be more magnitude 4 or greater here. There may be more activity occurring in other parts of California as well.

Update: June 13, 2020

A magnitude 6.7 occurred in the Ryukyu Islands region, 81 miles WNW of Naze. Its focal depth was of 101 miles. There may be much more going on in the world. There is now a very high chance of major earthquake activity somewhere any moment now or any day now so far. Regions that may be under the gun include: Japan(Ryukyu Islands, Honshu, or Hokkaido), Taiwan, Philippines(Batan Islands region), Indonesia(Sumatra, Java, Sulawesi, Banda Sea region), East Timor, Papua New Guinea, Solomon Islands, Tonga, Vanuatu, Kermadec Islands, Northern Mariana Islands, Kuril Islands, Aleutian Islands(Alaska), Andaman and Nicobar Islands region, Myanmar, Afghanistan, Pakistan, Iran, Chile, Bolivia, Peru, Central America...
More activity has started warming up in Southern California so far. There is a very high potential for mag. 3-4+ anytime or day now. There may also be more taking place in the Ridgecrest sequence and/or other areas of the Western United States. There may also be some more activity taking place in Western Canada(may include Alberta or the Yukon Territory) or Northern Alaska.

New Watch: June 11-19, 2020

As of right now, there may not be a lot going on in terms of serious earthquake activity but that could change later on today or within the week ahead so far. At the same time, it could remain quiet all day or into the weekend. There is still a very high chance of more large earthquake activity in the world. Regions that could be potential candidates for the next big one include: Japan(Hokkaido, Honshu, Izu Islands, Ryukyu Islands), Taiwan, Kuril Islands, Kamchatka Peninsula, East Timor, Papua New Guinea, Indonesia(Sumatra, Java, Banda Sea region, or Molucca Sea region), Andaman Islands(Port Blair area, India), Nicobar Islands, Myanmar, Afghanistan, Iran, Turkey or the Eastern Mediterranean Sea region, Tonga, Solomon Islands, Vanuatu, Kermadec Islands, Philippines, Northern Mariana Islands, Chile, Peru or Bolivia..
There may still be more magnitude 4 or greater taking place in Alaska(the Alaska Peninsula and Kodiak Island areas). Chuginadak Island's Cleveland volcano is at code orange which means it is under advisory according to the Alaska Volcano Observatory. There might be more activity on the rise again here in Southern California anytime or any day now. There could be more magnitude 3-4+ in the Ridgecrest area as well as near Mammoth Lakes. There continues to be a lot of aftershock activity taking place in Nevada. At this point, there may be more large and potentially dangerous earthquake activity taking place in the world somewhere any time or any day, however, it could also become quiet at first.

Outlook: June 9 - 17, 2020

At this point, the global activity may remain low for now. However, it could still heat back up in places today. A major earthquake somewhere today or tomorrow is still not out of the question. There is in fact still a very high potential for magnitude 6 or greater in the world any time or day by the 13th. It could also delay into next week at the same time. There is more activity occurring up in Alaska. There could potentially be something more significant going on there any time or any day now.
There is still more aftershock activity occurring in Nevada and there may be more mag. 3 or 4+ taking place near Bodie, California(Mammoth Lakes area). Some more aftershock activity has also started flaring up in Idaho. There may not be much going on here in Southern California right now. However, there may still be a lot more to come within the coming days. It could still heat back up again today. There could be little going on around here for now, but it should start becoming more active by now or sometime very soon.
The places around the world to potentially watch out for include: Central Asia(Afghanistan, Myanmar), Iran, Indonesia(Sumatra, Java, Halmahera, Banda Sea region), Papua New Guinea, Philippines, Solomon Islands, Tonga, Fiji, Vanuatu, Kermadec Islands, Northern Mariana Islands, Japan(Ryukyu Islands, Hokkaido, or Northern Honshu), Taiwan, Kuril Islands, Kamchatka Peninsula, Aleutian Islands or Southern Alaska, Central America, Chile..
When I list all those places, I don't want to confuse anyone where it comes across like I'm saying multiple places might go off at once. These are just the candidates. They are usually the most active parts of the world. That being said, there may or may not be more serious activity going on in the world. There is due to be more within the next 5-7 days at this point. This could also include more dangerous volcanic activity taking place somewhere.

Update: June 7, 2020

There is a lot of significant activity increasing in parts of the world so far. The biggest so far was a magnitude 5.8 in the Solomon Islands region. There is now an extremely high chance for a major earthquake somewhere any moment now or within the next several days at this point. Regions that could potentially be under the gun include: Vanuatu, Solomon Islands, Kermadec Islands region, Papua New Guinea, Indonesia(Sumatra, Java, Sulawesi, or Halmahera; also the Banda Sea region), Myanmar, possibly Central Asia(Western China, Hindu Kush region, Tajikistan), Iran, Turkey, Southern Greece, Japan(Northern Honshu or Hokkaido), Kuril Islands, Kamchatka Peninsula, Central America, Chile, Peru...
Just as I suspected, some mag. 4+ earthquakes have occurred in Alaska. There could be even more going on in that area. There has also been more activity heating up in Southern California so far. There is a very high chance of magnitude 4 or greater within the coming days. Something could even happen today. There could also be more activity taking place in Central California and the Bay area as well. I also will not be surprised if a bigger aftershock occurs in Nevada anytime or day now.

More strong activity worldwide still likely

There is still a lot going on in the world so far in terms of seismic activity. A powerful earthquake somewhere any moment or any day is highly likely so far. Yesterday, a magnitude 5.2 hit Central-Eastern Turkey. I warned on Twitter for that area to take precaution in case a bigger event occurs. I want to be careful not to alarm anyone because there also likely will not be a bigger event. It is just a precautionary measure whenever there is more activity than usual going on in a certain area. I'm only advising people to be aware and prepared. I'm not advising them to anticipate a large earthquake striking the area at any minute.
Nobody can know for sure whether a big earthquake will occur somewhere or not. Within the coming days, more earthquakes of at least magnitude 6 or higher are of an extremely strong chance in the world. I will not be surprised if it goes quiet again, but as of right now, there still might be more significant activity increasing somewhere. Regions to watch out for include: the Hindu Kush region, Turkey, Southern Greece, Indonesia(Flores, Banda, and Molucca Sea region or Sumatra), Papua New Guinea, Northern Mariana Islands, Tonga, Fiji, Vanuatu, Philippines(Luzon or Mindanao), Japan(Ryukyu Islands, Honshu, Hokkaido), Kuril Islands, Kamchatka Peninsula, South Sandwich Islands, Chile, Argentina, Bolivia, Peru, Central America..
While there still may be more strong earthquakes worldwide at any time, I will again, not be surprised if it goes quiet again. There is still more activity heating up in Southern California so far, as well as other parts of California again. There is also more aftershock activity increasing in Nevada as well as Idaho. There could be a stronger aftershock in one of those places. The potential for mag. 3-4+ in Southern California any time now or within the next 5-7 days is extremely high. I will be posting updates as the days go along.

Update: June 4, 2020

There has been a lot going on so far. Hours ago, a magnitude 6.4 rocked the Molucca Sea region, North of Halmahera(Indonesia). Everyone is aware that the biggest aftershock the Ridgecrest sequence has had in a while occurred at 6:32 P.M. yesterday evening. It was a magnitude 5.1. While it has calmed down a little overnight, there still may be a lot more going on in Southern California within the coming days so far.
There may be more mag. 3-4+ going on in Central California as well within the next week ahead so far. There is still a very high potential for more large earthquake activity somewhere in the world. Areas the watch would include: Philippines, Indonesia, Myanmar, portions of China, Hindu Kush region, Southern Greece(possibly other areas of Southeastern Europe), Japan, Northern Mariana Islands, Kuril Islands, Tonga, Vanuatu, Papua New Guinea, New Zealand, Chile, Argentina, Central America...
There may also be something going on in Alaska. It does not necessarily mean something large, but more activity(mag. 4+) within the week ahead. More aftershock activity may continue in the Ridgecrest area as well as Nevada and possibly Idaho.

Update: June 3, 2020

It is a good thing I switched my avatar back to alert mode late last night, there was not only more going on here in Southern California, but a large earthquake finally occurred somewhere in the world. A magnitude 6.8 took place in the Antofagasta region of Chile about 7 hours ago. A magnitude 3.9 hit about 25 miles NNW of the town of Barstow, California last night at around 9:36.
There is still a very high potential for more large earthquakes worldwide and more activity taking place here in Southern California. It is still very hot right now so far.

Overview of California

It occurred to me that there has been more activity reverberating back and forth from Central to Southern California recently. A magnitude 3.1 occurred Northeast of the town of Gonzales in Monterey County. It is somewhat connected because these quakes up there have mostly been occurring on the San Andreas Fault. I have a feeling at this point that some more significant activity could start occurring in Central California along that segment and then down here or vice versa in the coming months or weeks possibly. Again, there is no way of knowing for certain what may happen next. That can definitely happen, though. There could be more activity increasing up into the Bay area as well. We very well may be heading into active times and it may not only involve Southern California. It has slowly but surely looking more and more ominous.

Update: June 2, 2020

I'm going to be extending this watch into next week. While there is still a very high chance of magnitude 6 or greater somewhere, it may be lagging for right now. It could also get very quiet before an outbreak in significant activity in parts of the world. There is still a very high chance a magnitude 7 or greater could occur somewhere this week or next week. Regions that could be potential candidates for the next magnitude 6 or greater any time or day now include: Japan(Honshu, Hokkaido), Kuril Islands, Northern Mariana Islands, Philippines, Indonesia, Papua New Guinea, Solomon Islands, Tonga, Fiji, Vanuatu, New Zealand, Myanmar, China(Sichuan, Yunnan, or Xizang), Chile, Argentina, South Sandwich Islands, Iran, Greece...
There has been a lot of activity going on in the Eastern Mediterranean and Southeastern Europe most recently. That is a region to watch out for as precaution. It may not be one of the top most active regions in the world, but there has been a lot of moderate activity taking place there lately. In Southern California, there has been a steady increase in activity over the last day so far. There is an extremely high potential for mag. 4+ within the next week - this week or next week.
