An earthquake with a preliminary magnitude of 6.4 struck the Java region of Indonesia. The USGS downgraded it to magnitude 5.8. The quake damaged several buildings. So far, there have been no immediate reports of casualties. The quake was centered 84 km(52 miles) southwest of Bambanglipuro, a village in Bantul regency of Yogyakarta province, at a depth of 86 km(53 miles). Indonesia's National Disaster Management Agency said the undersea earthquake damaged at least 15 houses, two schools, a health facility and a government office. Television reports showed residents in Yogyakarta and its neighboring provinces of central and eastern Java panicking as houses and buildings swayed for several seconds. Some places ordered evacuations sending people fleeing into the streets. There was no danger of a tsunami, but services warned of aftershocks. As for the rest of the world, there is not a whole lot going on right now, but there is a high potential for more to come. Other places that could become active anytime now might include: Myanmar, Japan(Hokkaido region, Bonin Islands), Kuril Islands, Aleutian Islands, Ecuador, Colombia, Peru, Chile, South Sandwich Islands region, and the Philippines... Meanwhile some more seismic activity has flared up in California. A magnitude 3.4 struck near Tehachapi overnight. There is also more activity occurring in Southern Alaska and the peninsula.
