Update: 11/30/21


There are still high levels of seismic activity throughout parts of the world. A magnitude 6.0 struck the Bismarck Sea by New Ireland and New Britain in the Papua New Guinea region earlier. The quake had a shallow depth of 10 km(6.2 miles). The quake was likely felt by many living near the epicenter but it should not have caused significant damage other than objects being knock off shelves or windows breaking. There may still be more significant earthquake activity taking place out there. A magnitude 5.1 just now occurred in Xizang, China. It was probably an aftershock from a major earthquake in that region 6 months ago.

There continues to be a lot going on in the world. A magnitude 6.3 struck Japan's Izu Islands earlier and there are still high levels of activity in the world. Other places that may be active include: the Philippines(Mindanao), Indonesia(Sumatra, Java, or Banda Sea region), the Hindu Kush Mountains region, Iran or Eastern Turkey, Vanuatu, Fiji, Tonga, Papua New Guinea, Central America or Colombia.. There may also be some more seismic activity occurring across parts of the U.S. including Northern CA, the Sierras, Western Texas, and/or parts of the Central and/or Eastern U.S.

Update: 11/28/21

 


A magnitude 7.5 earthquake struck Peru on Sunday, collapsing a 16th-century Catholic church tower although no deaths or serious injuries were immediately reported. It was 5:52 local time when the earthquake struck the sparsely populated region. The quake had a focal depth of 112.5 kilometers(70 miles). The epicenter was 25 miles northwest of Barranca, a coastal city of 63,000 people about 100 miles north of Lima. Photos from the scene showed the rubble of the collapsed 45-foot historic church tower. Social media also showed photos of damage elsewhere in the region. The earthquake was felt across the country's northeastern border in Colombia. The mayor of Jalca Grande, Walter Culqui told RPP Noticias that, of the 3,000 families in the city, "60 or 70%" had some damage to their homes. There still may be a lot going on in the world. I will continue to keep the world posted.

New EQ Watch: 11/27-12/4/21


More strong earthquake activity may be on the rise again in parts of the world so far. There are moderate levels of seismic activity right now and it is showing signs of becoming more active again. There could even be a magnitude 7+ somewhere any time or day now within the week ahead. Regions to watch would include: Indonesia(Nias region, Sumatra, Sulawesi, or Halmahera), Papua New Guinea, Santa Cruz Islands region, Hindu Kush Mountains region, Kuril Islands, Kamchatka Peninsula, Central America, Peru, Bolivia, Chile, Argentina.. There may be more activity heating up in Alaska as well as the Gulf of Alaska and possibly the Pacific NW Coast. There could potentially be something more significant going on in the Gulf of Alaska, Haida Gwaii region, or Pacific NW Coast. At the same time, there may not be anything significant going on there. There could also be more seismic activity occurring across parts of the U.S. anytime or in the coming week. Again, the potential for more mag. 6+ in the world anytime within the next week is strong again so far.

Outlook: 11/27/21

 


So far, there are currently moderate levels of seismic activity in the world. A couple of strong earthquakes have occurred in this latest watch issued a couple of days ago. There may still be a lot going on over the next few days at this point. It could go quiet again, but there may be a large earthquake somewhere within the next week. It either could become very active any time or day now where it becomes calmer by the beginning of December or it could become quiet and then something big strikes somewhere in the early part of the coming month. There have been more small earthquakes taking place in Middle America and the Eastern U.S. lately. There has also been more activity going on off the Pacific Northwest Coast. There could also be more taking place up in Alaska.

Update: 11/25/21

 


A magnitude 6.1 hit the Solomon Islands region hours ago. The activity elsewhere in the world has been relatively low. There may or may not be more significant activity going on today, but there is still a strong chance of it being more active this weekend or early next week. Other areas we may need to look out for include: Indonesia(Nias region, Sumatra, Sulawesi), Papua New Guinea, Tonga, Central America, Argentina, Chile, Aleutian Islands, Iran, Eastern Turkey, the Caspian Sea region.. Some more activity may still be taking place across parts of the United States outside of California. A small cluster of quakes have occurred in the border between North Carolina and Virginia.

Update: 11/24/21


 So far, there have been signs of more serious earthquake activity in the world. There are numerous smaller events going on, but there has not been a magnitude 6 or greater anywhere yet. There is likely to be a magnitude 6 or larger taking place somewhere any time within the next 5-7 days at this point. Regions to watch may include: Parts of Asia such as China, Iran, Northern India, Pakistan, or Myanmar(Burma), Indonesia(Nias, Sumatra, or Sulawesi), Taiwan, Japan, Kuril Islands, Solomon Islands region, Tonga, Fiji, Gulf Of Alaska, possibly the Pacific Northwest Coast, Central America.. Meanwhile some more seismic activity is flaring up across parts of the United States once more. There is the possibility of something going on off of the Pacific NW coast. A number of smaller quakes have occurred in the margin of the Pacific and Juan De Fuca plates. More activity may be going on in California, the Rockies, and even possibly the Central and/or Eastern U.S. There have been a few more small earthquakes in the Central and Eastern U.S. over the last couple of days. There is still a high potential for large earthquake activity in the world any time or day now.

EQ Watch: 11/22-28/21

 


I had to delete a post I made the other day. The global activity has been starting and then stopping over the last few days. It would start to show signs of becoming more significantly active somewhere out there with a few moderate earthquakes, but then it would become quiet again. At this point, it could push into later in the week. At the same time, a large earthquake could strike somewhere at any time. Places to watch may include: Philippines(Mindanao), Indonesia(Sumatra, Banda Sea and Molucca Sea regions), parts of Central Asia such as Pakistan, Northern India, and Myanmar(Burma), Turkey, Taiwan, Peru, Argentina.. Some minor activity may be flaring up again across parts of the U.S. such as the West Coast, Western Texas, and possibly the Central and Eastern States. Again, more strong earthquake activity may be on the rise in the world any time or day now. Although it could end up staying relatively quiet for now, it might become more active by later this week. However, there is also a decent chance it can change at any time.

Extended EQ Watch: 11/13-17/21


A couple of strong earthquakes struck Southern Iran earlier. The mainshock was a magnitude 6.3 and the large foreshock was a magnitude 6.0. It was felt in Dubai. At least one person has been killed and a number of homes were destroyed. There may still be more strong earthquake activity going on in the world. Other regions to watch may include: Turkey, Indonesia(Sumatra, Java, Sulawesi, Molucca Sea region), Taiwan, Japan(Honshu or Hokkaido), Northern Mariana Islands, Papua New Guinea, Tonga, Fiji.. It still might be active out there somewhere. I will also be keeping up with whatever is going on via Twitter.

Update: 11/10/21

 


A magnitude 6.6 earthquake struck 114.6 miles northeast of Hirara, Okinawa earlier at a depth of 6.2 miles. No Pacific-wide tsunami was expected. No injuries or damage were immediately reported either. There was another significant earthquake with a magnitude of 5.9 off the coast of Java, Indonesia shortly after the first large quake. There may still be more going on out there. There has also been some more seismic activity occurring in the Central and Eastern United States again including Virginia and South Carolina today. There was also more seismic activity going on in the western Texas and eastern New Mexico border area. There also has been some activity occurring in other areas of the West as well as the Pacific Northwest. There could also be some more activity heating up in Alaska again.

Update: 11/9/21


 A magnitude 6.2 struck off the southern coast of Nicaragua overnight. There were no immediate reports of deaths or injuries and no threat of a tsunami. There continues to be a high potential for more significant earthquake activity in the world. A magnitude 5.1 earthquake struck Turkey's central Anatolian province of Konya at 8:43 p.m. yesterday. It was reported that 3 derelict buildings were damaged. Other regions in the world that is or could potentially be active may include: Japan, the Northern Mariana Islands, Indonesia(Sulawesi, the Banda Sea region), Turkey, Central America, parts of Central Asia(Northern India, Myanmar, Western China, Peru, Chile, Tonga, Fiji, New Zealand, Loyalty Islands.. There have been signs of more seismic activity occurring in the New Madrid Seismic Zone over the past 2-3 days. A few other small earthquakes have popped up across parts of the South. There has been a rise in seismic activity in  the Central and Eastern U.S. over the past week. There may also be more seismic activity flaring up in other parts of the U.S. such as western TX, CA, NV, and also potentially Idaho, and/or Wyoming. There may still be more strong earthquakes occurring somewhere in the world any time or day now.

Update: 11/6/21


 More significant activity has occurred in the world today so far. The largest so far was a magnitude 5.9 in the Sulawesi region of Indonesia. It may still be very active out there. Other regions to watch may include: Japan, the Mariana Islands, Fiji, Tonga, the Loyalty Islands, Philippines(Mindanao, Luzon, or the Batan Islands), Myanmar, Peru, Chile, Argentina... More earthquakes have popped up across the United States, including a few very small EQs in the Southern New Madrid Seismic Zone(Eastern Arkansas). There was also a small earthquake in Alabama South of Birmingham. More activity has been taking place in Alaska. There could be more going on there. Again, there is a very high potential for large earthquake activity in the world any time or any day now so far.

New EQ Watch: 11/5-12/21

 


The activity has been fluctuating over the last 2 days and there may still be a very high potential for a large earthquake somewhere in the world within the next week or any day now. Regions that could be active would include: Japan, the Northern Mariana Islands, Micronesia, Philippines(Batan Islands, Mindanao), Papua New Guinea, Indonesia(Banda Sea, Java, Sumatra), Myanmar, Loyalty Islands, Tonga, New Zealand, Chile, Peru, Argentina, the Aleutian Islands, Kuril Islands.. There may also be more seismic activity flaring up around California, the Pacific Northwest, and/or parts of the Rockies. There could also be more going on elsewhere in the U.S. A widely felt earthquake in the Central or Eastern U.S. anytime soon cannot be ruled out. There has been some more earthquakes taking place on this side of the country over the past week. There again is a high chance of more strong earthquake activity worldwide within the week ahead so far.

Update: 11/1/21


More significant activity has occurred in parts of the world. A magnitude 6.1 struck the South Sandwich Islands earlier - an aftershock from the mag. 8.1 back in August. A magnitude 6.0 just occurred west of Nias, Indonesia just over an hour ago. There is still a soaring potential for more strong EQ activity out there. Other areas that may be active would include: the Philippines(Batan Islands region), Japan, Northern Mariana Islands, Micronesia, New Caledonia(Loyalty Islands), Aleutian Islands(Alaska), Tonga, Fiji, Vanuatu, Peru, Chile.. More activity has also flared up across the USA. A magnitude 4.5 struck northern New Mexico last night and some more activity is occurring across parts of the Central and Eastern U.S. A couple of micro quakes popped up in the New Madrid area and a mag. 2.2 occurred in northern Arkansas early this morning and a mag. 2.0 later happened in the Jenkinsville area of South Carolina.
