There are now more signs of serious earthquake activity taking place worldwide any moment or day now so far. Earlier yesterday, it was extremely quiet and then it started up again later in the afternoon(Pacific Daylight Time). Magnitude 6-7+ earthquakes may be imminent any moment now or within the next week ahead. It could also end up skipping another month without a magnitude 7+ anywhere. Potential candidates for the next round of significant to major earthquake activity would include: Indonesia(Sumatra, Java, Sulawesi, Halmahera, Talaud Islands), Molucca Sea, Banda Sea, Philippines(Mindanao), Japan(Honshu, Hokkaido, Ryukyu Islands, Bonin Islands), Northern Mariana Islands, Kuril Islands, Kamchatka Peninsula and Komandorskiye Ostrova, Aleutian Islands, possibly the Gulf of Alaska, Papua New Guinea, Solomon Islands, Santa Cruz Islands, Vanuatu, Loyalty Islands, Fiji, Samoa, Tonga, Kermadec Islands, South Sandwich Islands, Chile, Argentina, Peru, Ecuador, Colombia, Central America, Tajikistan, Iran, Turkey, Greece, and/or possibly Italy..

A particularly big event could be imminent somewhere at any time. Closer to home, a magnitude 4.5 happened near Oakland, CA at around 10:30 last night. While a larger quake there anytime or any day may be possible, there also may not be anything above last night's event.

There may still also be more activity increasing in the Southland as well as in the Mojave. There also may be more noticeable activity taking place in Nevada or Washington and/or Oregon anytime now or later this week or perhaps next week. In Southern California, a magnitude 3.0 occurred near Borrego Springs the other day. A magnitude 4 or larger is still of a very high potential anytime now or within the next week.

At this point, the chances of mag. 7+ worldwide any moment now or within the next week are extremely high. A major earthquake or two somewhere within the next two weeks is of a very high likelihood. There may or may not be any significant EQ activity taking place out there today. However, more magnitude 6+ worldwide within the next 5-7 days is highly likely at this point. Potential candidates for the next mag. 6+ EQs: Indonesia(Sumatra, Java, Halmahera, Sulawesi, Talaud Islands, Molucca Sea, Banda Sea), Celebes Sea, Philippines(Mindanao, Luzon), Northern Mariana Islands, Japan(Honshu, Hokkaido, Kyushu, Ryukyu Islands, Volcano Islands, or Izu Islands), Kuril Islands, Kamchatka Peninsula, Aleutian Islands(Near and Andreanof Islands), Papua New Guinea, Solomon Islands, Vanuatu, Fiji, Samoa or Tonga, New Zealand(North Island), Central Asia(Myanmar or the Tajikistan region), Iran, Turkey, Greece, South Sandwich Islands, Chile(Valparaiso, Coquimbo, Atacama, Antofagasta, Tarapaca or Arica), Argentina(Jujuy, Caramarca, San Juan, or La Rioja), Peru, Ecuador, Colombia, Panama, Costa Rica, Nicaragua, El Salvador, Guatemala, Mexico(Chiapas, Oaxaca, Guerrero)..
Central America could possibly be under the gun for a particularly large and dangerous earthquake anytime now or sometime in the near future. There has been numerous tremors occurring along the Western Central American coast from Panama to Southwestern Mexico recently. Another region that may be hit with a particularly large event is the area between Halmahera, Indonesia and Mindanao, Philippines. That area consists of the Molucca Sea, Celebes Sea, and Talaud Islands. I have also been shedding new concerns for Sumatra, Indonesia, for there has been a lot of activity taking place up and down the Western coast of the large Island. I'm still focusing on the Eastern Mediterranean Sea region and the Ryukyu Islands. There may still be the possibility of a large event occurring in those areas.
There still might be mag. 3-4+ taking place here in Southern California anytime, any day, or within the next 5-7 days. A magnitude 4+ here anytime or day now is of a very strong chance. There could still be more aftershocks heating up in the Ridgecrest and Searles Valley area. A stronger aftershock anytime or day now is not out of the question. There may potentially be more noticeable earthquakes taking place in Central California and the Mammoth Lakes area and/or Northern California and the Pacific Northwest. There is still a high potential for more mag. 3-4+ in other parts of the West such as Utah, Nevada, Montana, Idaho, and/or Wyoming.

Update: Oct. 9, 2019

So far, there is still little going on in terms of any significant earthquake activity in the world. It may stay quiet for another entire week or it could suddenly act up somewhere at any moment. It has been more than a week since the last magnitude 6 or greater and more than a month since the last magnitude 7 or greater. If it stays stagnant like this through the rest of the week, then a lot more is bound to happen within the next 1-2 weeks at the longest at this point. Regions that may be under the gun include: Celebes Sea, Molucca Sea, Banda Sea, Indonesia(Sumatra, Java, Sulawesi, Talaud Islands, or Halmahera), New Guinea, Papua New Guinea, Solomon Islands, Vanuatu, Tonga, Fiji, New Zealand(North Island), Philippines(Mindanao, Luzon), Northern Mariana Islands, Japan(Honshu, Hokkaido, Kyushu, Ryukyu Islands, Izu, or Volcano Islands), Kamchatka Peninsula, Aleutian Islands, Central America, Peru, Chile, Argentina, South Sandwich Islands region, Greece, Turkey, Caspian Sea region, Iran, Pakistan, Afghanistan, Tajikistan, Kyrgyzstan, Northern India, Myanmar, Andaman Islands region..
Those are all the potential candidates for the next round of significant to major earthquake activity in the world. Something major could strike somewhere anytime today, tomorrow, or next week. I also will not be too surprised if it does not act up significantly by next week either. I have seen gaps between mag. 7+ as long as 3-5 months over the last 2 years. However, I strongly doubt that it will be that much longer. Southern California could be having more significant activity around the corner. Right now, more mag. 4+ could take place here anytime now or within the next week. There also still could be more mag. 4+ aftershocks near Ridgecrest and more noticeable activity in other parts of California and the West.

Update: Oct. 6, 2019

While there is due to be a major earthquake taking place somewhere in the world any time now, there might not be that much going on for right now. However, it could still very well act up any moment now at least somewhere. There are also no longer any signs of any activity taking place here in Southern California for right now. It may still heat up later today or it may stay quiet even by tomorrow. There still should be a lot more taking place by now. There is still an extremely high potential for magnitude 3-4+ this week. 

There is still also a very high chance of mag. 6-7+ worldwide anytime now or within the next week. Again, it might remain less than particularly active for now. There also may be little taking place at all here in Southern CA, but there still may be more activity heating up again at any moment. Last night when I made my last post, while I was feeling like major quake activity was on the verge of taking place somewhere, there was a sense of doubt that anything serious was going to be taking place yet. I may have switched off my red light on Twitter, but that does not mean that there will be a low risk of large quakes in the world. There still could be something major imminent somewhere at any time.

EQ Watch: October 6-14, 2019

There is a very high chance of major earthquake activity taking place somewhere in the world any moment now or anytime within the next week. Regions that may be particularly active anytime now include: Japan(Ryukyu Islands, Honshu, or Hokkaido), Philippines(Luzon, Mindanao, Negroes), Celebes Sea, Indonesia(Sumatra, Sulawesi, Halmahera, Kepulauan Talaud), Papua New Guinea, Solomon Islands, Tonga, Fiji, Vanuatu, possibly New Zealand, Northern Mariana Islands, Kuril Islands, Aleutian Islands, Costa Rica, El Salvador, Panama, Mexico(Chiapas, Oaxaca, Guerro), Peru, Chile, Argentina, Scotia Sea/South Sandwich Islands, Tajikistan/Kyrgyzstan region, Iran, Turkey, Greece, Myanmar(Burma), Andaman Islands..
There is now a very high chance for magnitude 3-4+ in Southern California anytime now within the week ahead. There could also be more mag. 4+ aftershocks in the Ridgecrest area or more activity taking place in the Bay area and Mammoth Lakes. There could also be more mag. 3-4+ taking place in other parts of the Western U.S. such as Montana, Wyoming, Idaho, Nevada, and/or Utah. I am also just now growing a little more concerned about the possibility of more significant earthquake activity in areas of California - whether it be larger aftershocks with the Little Lake sequence or something going on in the Bay area or other parts of Central CA or Mammoth Lakes. There is due to be much more activity taking place in Southern California anytime or day now or sometime within the next week or two.
As much as it could be acting up all over, it could also suddenly become backed up to where there is little going on for a few days. However, there is due to be a lot of large earthquake activity taking place somewhere in parts of the world.

Update: October 4, 2019

I woke up to see that the real-time earthquakes map was very scarce. It has overall been extremely uneventful all day. There was the exception of a moderate earthquake in Alaska, but other than that, there was very little taking place anywhere else. It was nearly dead here in Southern California. There was a 13-hour gap between mag. 1+ EQs overnight. It remained very quiet throughout the day. However, the activity could start up anytime now. If it stays quiet for now, then a lot more activity may take place by next week. There may be more significant earthquake activity increasing worldwide just now. At the same time, it may also discontinue for another day or two.
There is due to be major earthquake activity somewhere at any time. Regions that may be next for more significant earthquake activity include: Philippines(Negros, Luzon, Mindanao), Japan(Hokkaido, Honshu, Izu Islands, Volcano Islands, or Ryukyu Islands), Kuril Islands, Kamchatka Peninsula, Aleutian Islands, Southern Alaska, Northern Mariana Islands, Papua New Guinea, Molucca Sea, Indonesia(Sumatra, Sulawesi, Kepulauan Talaud), Solomon Islands, Santa Cruz Islands, Tonga, Vanuatu, New Zealand, Scotia Sea, Chile, Argentina, Peru, Central America, Mexico, Greece, Turkey, Iran, Pakistan, Afghanistan, Tajikistan, Myanmar, China(Xizang, Qinghai, Sichuan, or Yunnan), Andaman Islands..
If it does not act up by now or tomorrow, then more major earthquake activity is likely within the next week or two. More magnitude 6+ should start taking place somewhere at anytime this weekend. While there still may be little taking place here in Southern California for right now, there may be more activity taking place North of the Garlock Fault and elsewhere in the Western U.S. There may be mag. 4+ taking place in Central or Northern California anytime now - this includes the Ridgecrest area and Mammoth Lakes. There may also be mag. 4+ occurring in other parts of the West such as Utah, Montana, Nevada, Wyoming, and/or Idaho. A magnitude 3.0 just now occurred in Utah.
Meanwhile, it may or may not act up in Southern California any moment now, but there might be more mag. 4+ taking place within the week. It could still happen this weekend. There could also be a lot more potentially taking place with the Little Lake aftershock sequence.

There still is due to be major earthquake activity taking place worldwide any moment now or within the next week at this point. It may or may not be today or this week, but the chances are still great. Regions that may be under the gun include: Central Asia, Myanmar, Andaman Islands region, Indonesia(Sumatra, Java, Halmahera, or Sulawesi), Banda Sea, Philippines(Mindanao, Luzon, Negros), Japan(Hokkaido, Honshu, Volcano Islands, Ryukyu Islands), Kuril Islands, Aleutian Islands and Alaska Peninsula, Central America and Mexico, Colombia, Ecuador, Peru, Chile, Argentina, Scotia Sea region, New Zealand, Tonga, Vanuatu, Solomon Islands, Santa Cruz Islands, Turkey, and Greece..
There is a very high chance of more magnitude 6+ worldwide somewhere any moment now or this week. There is also a high chance of more magnitude 3-4+ in Southern California this week or anytime now. There may also be more aftershocks of magnitude 3 and above in the Ridgecrest area anytime now or within the week. There may also be more activity taking place in Central and Northern California or other parts of the West such as Idaho, Wyoming, and Montana.
In terms of world tectonic activity, there could also be a large volcanic eruption imminent somewhere. Residents usually are warned in advance when a volcano is showing signs of erupting. A volcano just erupted in Papua New Guinea, causing residents to flee.
