Earthquakes around the world

Some recent odds and ends on the global quake watch.

June 11, 2022

In parts of Berlin, people clearly felt an earthquake for a minute at 8:58 p.m. yesterday. It was the concert of #florenceandthemachine at #Tempelhofsounds . @FaulerSnoopy had this explained to him by @erdbebennews .

Noticeable shaking on Friday evening in the south of #Berlin . A #Erdbeben is probably not the cause. More on this:

Earthquake activity picking up near New Zealand.. Yellowstone update.. Earthquakes 6/11/2022

It's not a large quake, M3.8, but being in England it's relatively unusual, and the Tweeter points out that it's near an extinct volcano. It will most likely be nothing of note, but i'm logging it here all the same:

A seismologist commented on the M3.8 saying it was the largest onshore quake since 2018, and for an 'aseismic' region, the 3 quakes that hit (an M2.7 & M2.3) are rather unusual:

 
Last week saw 3 M6 and 1M7, which was a M7.2 occurring in Peru.
In the usual area, there were 0 out of 94 earthquakes worldwide equal to or greater than 4.5 and 1595 out of 1963 quakes of all sizes.
Percentage: 81.2%
After not reporting last Sunday, the pattern regarding the usual area is fairly unchanged.
Over the week there was 1 M6, which was a M6.5 in Brazil.
In the usual area, there were 2 out 101 earthquakes worldwide equal to or greater than 4.5 and 1448 out of 1855 quakes of all sizes.
Percentage: 78.1%

RARE MORNING SKY SHOW: For the first time since Dec. 2004, five naked-eye planets have lined up at dawn in order of their distance from the sun. It's a rare morning sky show. Next week, the Moon will hop from planet to planet, producing a series of early morning conjunctions. SpaceWeather.com
Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter and Saturn can be seen with the unaided eye. Uranus and Neptune require binoculars.

Seven earthquakes struck off Iran’s southern Kish Island on Wednesday, rattling Dubai and other areas across the Persian Gulf.

The U.S. Geological Survey said six magnitude 4 temblors struck, as well as one magnitude 5.3 off the island near the strategic Strait of Hormuz.

Iranian state television reported that authorities deployed rescue teams to the town of Jenah in Hormozgan province, though no damage and casualties were initially reported. Jenah is some 1,080 kilometers (670 miles) south of the capital, Tehran.
Iran lies on major seismic faults and experiences one earthquake a day on average. In 2003, a magnitude 6.6 earthquake flattened the historic city of Bam, killing 26,000 people. A magnitude 7 earthquake that struck western Iran in 2017 killed more than 600 people and injured more than 9,000.
