Extended EQ Watch: 2/21-26/22


There are loads of earthquake activity taking place throughout the world. The threat level for magnitude 6 or greater somewhere is currently high. I decided to extend the watch through this week. It could also end up falling quiet again at the same time, but so far, there is a lot going on. Regions that may be active now include: Indonesia(Flores Sea region), Philippines(Mindanao and/or Luzon), Micronesia(State of Yap), Guam or the Northern Mariana Islands, Solomon Islands, Tonga, Fiji, New Zealand, Japan, Kuril Islands, Aleutian Islands(Alaska, USA), Alaska.. The Western Ring of Fire has been especially active so far. There have been a number of earthquakes throughout Japan over the last day. There have been 7 noticeable ones along the island nation over the past week - The biggest being a mag. 5.1 off the Miyagi Prefecture on Friday. More small earthquakes have also been popping up across the U.S. over this past week including Texas, Oklahoma, Arkansas, Missouri, and Tennessee. A magnitude 2.4 occurred near Knoxville this morning. There could also be some more seismic activity in the West including California and Nevada. Again, it is heated out there so far. There is once again, a very high potential for mag. 6 or greater somewhere in the world. There could even potentially be a mag. 7+ somewhere this week.
