A magnitude 6.7 earthquake struck early Tuesday in Northern Mongolia not far from the border of Russia, the USGS reported. The earthquake was 6 miles deep and was located about 20 miles SSW of Turt, U.S. seismologists said. The USGS also said that there was a "low likelihood of casualties and damage" from the quake. "Overall the population in this region resides in structures that are resistant to earthquake shaking, though vulnerable structures exist", it added. There has also been other significant quakes elsewhere in the world. 5 hours later, a magnitude 5.9 quake struck off the Western coast of Hokkaido, Japan. There may still be more large earthquake activity going on in the world anytime now. There may also be more activity flaring up in Southern California any time now. It may also be heating up in other parts of California. Alaska may have more earthquake activity going on as well(mag. 4+).
