Today was supposed to be the last day of the worldwide earthquake watch, but that does not mean there will not be anymore significant earthquakes going on for a while. It still may not be over yet. There could in fact be a lot going on any time now. A magnitude 6.2 struck off the west coast of northern Sumatra, Indonesia just a few hours ago and a magnitude 6.1 struck the coast of southern Chile just less than an hour ago. At the same time, those could have been the last strong events for now. There is still some instability going on out there. There may or may not be another major earthquake imminent somewhere any time now. Other active areas may include other parts of Indonesia such as the Banda, Flores, and Molucca Sea region, Papua New Guinea, Kuril Islands, Tonga, Fiji, Japan, Philippines, and/or Mexico... I'm not saying a major earthquake might hit one of these places. Those are just regions that have been most active. I'm also not going to rule out the possibility of something going on in northern Italy. Again, that may not be a likely candidate, but it is worth a mention in case there is something going on there.
