Earthquakes around the world

WORLDWIDE EARTHQUAKE REPORT APRIL 12_2024

Moderate levels of seismic activity occurred in the past 24 hours. A strong magnitude 5.8 earthquake occurred in the Solomon Sea near the coast of Solomon Islands. The closest larger town where the quake might have been felt is Kirakira, a town with 1,100 inhabitants. USGS issued a Green alert for shaking-related fatalities and economic losses. No aftershocks have been recorded so far. The strongest-ever (since 1900) recorded quake in this area measured magnitude 7.8. It had occurred 85 years ago.

Honiara, Solomon Islands seismic station located at 134 km recorded the following seismogram:

WORLDWIDE EARTHQUAKE REPORT APRIL 17_2024

Moderate levels of seismic activity occurred in the past 24 hours. A very strong magnitude 6.3 earthquake occurred in the Philippine Sea near the coast of Ehime, Japan. According to USGS the quake might have been felt by over 20.5 million people across Japan. The closest larger town where the quake might have been felt is Matsuyama, a city with more than 440,000 inhabitants, 83 km distance northeast of the epicenter. USGS issued a Green alert for shaking-related fatalities and economic losses. For this strong earthquake, 34 aftershocks have been detected so far. The strongest was a magnitude 4.5 quake.

The strongest-ever (since 1900) recorded quake in this area measured magnitude 8.4. and occurred 133 years ago.

Matsushiro, Japan seismic station located at 650 km from epicenter recorded the following seismogram
MAJO.IU.00.BHZ.2024.108.14.10.00.019-2024.108.14.39.45.994.bp-0.02-5.0.png

A strong magnitude 5.5 earthquake hit 19 km ESE of Cárdenas, Nicaragua. The quake had a intermediate depth of 151 km. Given the depth it is likely that this earthquake is a precursor for a strong earthquake. According to USGS the quake might have been felt by over 9.2 million people across 2 countries: Costa Rica (4.8 million) and Nicaragua (4.4 million). The closest larger town where the quake might have been felt is Liberia, a town with 45,000 inhabitants in Costa Rica, in 57 km distance south of the epicenter. USGS issued a Green alert for shaking-related fatalities and economic losses. The strongest-ever (since 1900) recorded quake in this area measured magnitude 7.6. It occurred 12 years ago. No aftershocks have been recorded so far.

EARTHQUAKE FORECAST UPDATED APRIL 17_2024

A second convergence of critical planetary geometry this monhth, from 19 to 22 April, will result in more seismic unrest and may also trigger major to great seismic activity, most likely from 20 to 24 April and possibly around the 27th. SSGEOS

WORLDWIDE EARTHQUAKE REPORT APRIL 18_2024

Moderate levels of seismic activity occurred in the past 24 hours. A strong magnitude 5.6 earthquake occurred in the Gulf of California near Isla Monserrat island, Mexico. According to USGS the quake might have been felt by over 2.1 million people across Mexico. The closest larger town where the quake might have been felt is Loreto, a town with 15,000 inhabitants. USGS issued a Green alert for shaking-related fatalities and economic losses. The earthquake M5.6 had a precursor M5.2 and several aftershocks M4+ being a M4.7 the greatest. The strongest-ever (since 1900) recorded quake in this area measured magnitude 7.7. It occurred 117 years ago.

WORLDWIDE EARTHQUAKE REPORT APRIL 20_2024

Low levels of seismic activity occurred in the past 24 hours. It has been more than 24 hours since the last M5.0 earthquake occurred west of the Ring of Fire, specifically in Saipan in the Northern Mariana Islands. We have to remember the following forecast and that according to SSGEOS there is an 80% probability that an event between M6.0 and M6.4 will occur and a 60% probability for an earthquake greater than M7.5.​
A second convergence of critical planetary geometry this monhth, from 19 to 22 April, will result in more seismic unrest and may also trigger major to great seismic activity, most likely from 20 to 24 April and possibly around the 27th. SSGEOS
Tomorrow [April 21] three planetary conjunctions uniquely converge. One conjunction is with Earth, Jupiter and Uranus. Clustering of stronger tremors is likely in the coming days. A larger earthquake is also possible. Be on watch. SSGEOS
