Delayed: 12/28/22 - 1/4/23


We might be experiencing a gap in large earthquake activity worldwide. There were signs of a lot going on a few days ago, but it discontinued. It is not completely quiet right now, but it overall has not changed at all over the last several days. 2023 may start out busy in terms of global seismic activity. There could be a lot going on by New Year's Eve or day. So far, there has not been an earthquake larger than magnitude 7.6 anywhere in the world this year. It does not surprise me that much as there were two great earthquakes(magnitude 8+) in 2021. December has been a quiet month as November was extremely active. There may or may not be an earthquake of magnitude 7 and above within the week ahead. As much as a lot is due to take place out there by now, this also may not be an intense active episode at the same time. However, I cannot try to look too far ahead to determine when it might be most active. All I can say now is that there may likely be a magnitude 6 or greater somewhere in the world this week. It is of a very high likelihood any day now. Regions that could be candidates for the next strong earthquake would include: the Bonin Islands region(Japan), Taiwan, Kuril Islands, Kamchatka Peninsula, Aleutian Islands, Indonesia(Banda Sea region), East Timor, Papua New Guinea, Solomon Islands, Kermadec Islands(New Zealand), Chile, or possibly parts of Central Asia.
