This observation period will end with other critical planetary and lunar geometries on March 3 and 4. SSGEOS mentions:
The positions of Mars, Jupiter and Uranus combined will probably cause stronger seismic activity above average until at least 4 March.

WORLDWIDE EARTHQUAKE REPORT MARCH 03, 2026

Significant seismic activity occurred in the Aleutian Islands region of Alaska between March 1 and March 3, and there are clear indications of a seismic swarm.

Multiple earthquakes were recorded in areas such as Attu Station, Buldir Island, Herbert Island, Rat Islands, and other parts of the western and central Aleutians. Moderate earthquakes range from magnitude 3 to 4, and so far the strongest earthquake recorded had a magnitude of 5.3 on March 02.

● Testing nuclear weapons?​
Seventy-six earthquakes occurred in Tonopah, Nevada, adding to the previous day's totals, including a recent 4.3-magnitude event at a depth of 6.3 km

A series of mysterious earthquakes has been recorded near one of America's most secretive bases used for nuclear testing.

Over the last day, the US Geological Survey (USGS) has detected 16 moderate tremors, all stronger than 2.5 in magnitude, in the vicinity of Tonopah Test Range in Nevada, better known as 'Area 52.'

For decades, it has been believed that the US military has carried out experimental aircraft testing as well as nuclear weapons research in this remote area.

Now, scientists have monitored over 100 seismic events within 50 miles of the Tonopah Test Range in just the last week.

These earthquakes have ranged from very small shockwaves between 1.0 and 1.9 in magnitude to minor earthquakes stronger than 3.0, which could be felt by anyone at ground level nearby.

The outbreak of earthquake swarms near the nuclear testing site has also come as the US launches a massive bombing campaign against Iran, and President Donald Trump has warned that the 'biggest wave' hasn't even happened yet.​

Strongest in 126 years
The earthquake was the strongest to hit this part of the United States since at least the beginning of the previous century (our records start in 1900). No other quake of equal or greater strength had occurred near the present epicenter since then. Volcanodiscovery

This event is considered one of the strongest in Louisiana and was felt in parts of eastern Texas and western Louisiana. There is no mention in the USGS reports that it is related to the New Madrid fault.

● SSGEOS Earthquake forecast

We ended the observation period from February 23 to March 4 with four earthquakes reaching a magnitude of 6+, which is considered above-average seismic activity. In fact, we have observed this since the previous observation period (February 14 to 23).

A magnitude 7.1 earthquake in Malaysia (the first in its history) occurred after the planetary geometry of Earth, Saturn, and Neptune. Meanwhile, strong seismic activity in the second period was concentrated around the eclipse (on March 3) and planetary geometries involving Mercury & Venus with Saturn and Neptune.

Next observation period from March 04 -13 We have several critical planetary geometries (in red) and a near quadruple conjunction with Earth, Venus, Saturn, and Neptune.

Sun, Mercury, Earth on March 07
Earth, Venus Neptune on March 07
Earth, Venus Saturn on March 08
Mercury, Venus, Uranus on March 09
Venus, Mercury, Uranus on March 10
Mercury, Sun, Neptune on March 11
Mercury, Sun, Saturn on March 11
Mercury, Venus, Jupiter on March 12

Lunar geometries

Moon, Earth, Uranus on March 09
Moon, Earth, Jupiter on March 13

Frank Hoogerbeets mentions:​
If we look at the solar system, we see Earth, Venus, Neptune and Earth, Venus Saturn in a near quadruple conjunction and also Earth in an alignment with Mercury and the Sun, this is on March 7-8, there's about 24 hours in between those 2 alignments, so they happen practically at the same time and that's a really critical convergence because Earth is involved in both alignments but also Mercury and Venus and as a result we can have a significant seismic response I'd say on March 8th, but we have also Moon, Earth, Uranus coming up as a significant seismic modulator here.​
So it's difficult to say exactly when the largest seismic response is going to happen relative to this planetary geometry on the seventh and eighth, but I'd say be on extra alert, especially on eighth, ninth and tenth March. There can be an obvious seismic response, higher 6 magnitude 7, maybe even 2 seismic events. because this is really critical geometry here, the near quadruple conjunction on seven and eight March​

Between March 10 and 13, there may be an increase in seismic activity, but only reaching a magnitude of 5.5 -5.9
This can be a critical convergence but Earth is not directly involved here so I suspect there can be increased seismic activity the typical higher 5 magnitude earthquakes​
