Update: Sept. 11, 2020

A magnitude 6.3 earthquake struck Northern Chile, 51 miles NNE of Tocopilla overnight. There have been no reports of injuries or damage so far. This was probably an aftershock of the recent set of strong earthquakes along Chile's Northern coast. Otherwise, there has not been much else going on worldwide. There were no other significant earthquakes anywhere else in the world so far. It could remain like this well into the weekend or there could suddenly be a lot going on today or tomorrow. There is the possibility of a magnitude 7 or greater somewhere any day now. There could possibly be a mag. 8 imminent somewhere. There has not been a magnitude 8.something yet this year. Of course, magnitude 8s don't always happen once a year. There still has been little going on in Southern California. There have been hours-long intervals between mag. 1s here in Southern California and it has been this way all week. It has showed no signs of changing whatsoever. It could stay quiet well into the weekend or it could increase dramatically later on - whether it be today or tomorrow. It has been too quiet for too long. It has acted up in other parts of California. A magnitude 4 aftershock occurred in the Olancha area early this morning. It still has not shown any signs of picking up again here in the area South of the Tehachapi Mountains and Garlock Fault, North of the Mexico border. There should be more magnitude 4+ quakes going on in this region by now. There should at least be a lot more going on by next week at this point.
