Update: August 1, 2020


A magnitude 6.4 earthquake occurred in the Mindanao region of the Philippines. The epicenter was just Northwest of the coastal city of Cotabato. There were no immediate reports of injuries. The Philippines' volcanology agency said it was expecting damage and aftershocks, but no threat of a tsunami. Then later, there was a magnitude 6.0 in the Bismarck Sea near Papua New Guinea. There is still a very high potential for more large and potentially dangerous earthquake activity somewhere in the world.
Regions that could be of concern include: Central Asia(China - Xizang, Sichuan, or Yunnan, Northern India, Afghanistan, or Pakistan), Indonesia, Philippines, Papua New Guinea, Peru, Chile, Central America(Mexico)...
At the same time, that could also be it for now. There is not so much going on in Southern California today so far. It could still heat up again later or it could remain relatively quiet here all day. There is due to be more going on as well as other parts of California such as Central California, Mammoth, and the Ridgecrest area.
