A magnitude 6.5 struck the Luzon region in the Philippines on Tuesday night. It was initially rated a magnitude 6.8, but was revised to magnitude 6.5. It hit at a depth of 28 km and was located about 7 km northeast of Tineg, a town on the main island of Luzon. It struck at 10:59 p.m. local time. This was 3 months after a damaging magnitude 7.0 struck the Island. In fact, today's earthquake's epicenter was in the exact same area as the bigger earthquake that occurred in late July. It still might be very active out there. An even larger earthquake striking that region or somewhere else is possible.
