Yesterday, a magnitude 6.8 earthquake struck South of the Fiji Islands. There was no tsunami threat and there have been no other problems reported from the earthquake. It was extremely deep like many earthquakes are in that region. Unfortunately, there were 2 deaths reported in Guatemala from the previous mag. 6.2 which also triggered landslides. There could still be more significant activity going on somewhere. It might not be over yet. At the same time, that mag. 6.8 may have been it in terms of a particularly strong earthquake. It was below magnitude 7, but there is not always a mag. 7 due somewhere every month.
