Japan Aftershock on or about June 30???

I like to assume that because the Great Sumatra Earthquake back in 2004 had two major aftershocks in the 8 Magnitude range, that the recent Great Japan Earthquake will probably also have aftershocks along those same lines. I had accurately figured exactly when the aftershocks of Sumatra would occur, and am now resonably sure that on or about June 30 something should really shake over in the Japan Region again. It should be noted and I think any reasonable seismology person would agree that the major aftershocks may not strike out at the same exact spot. The reason I'm thinking this is because is it possible that the major aftershocks could strike a populated area? Or Not? Or should aftershocks still strike out in the ocean? In any event the same movement of the Indian Ocean/Australian Tectonic Plate is currently taking place and if it is going to shake Japan again. . . that day might be June 30. However I have been told by a real seismologist that if my method of predicting the movement of tectonic plates IS accurate, then the actual earthquake energy could be released at any time and that it probably will not duplicate the exact day and time, of course. So be watching out starting now and through June 30 and a couple days beyond for 8 Richters Magnitude to strike that region, and I suppose possibly not Japan, but I'm wondering if there isn't a small chance for Alaska, Canada, or our West Coast to get some of this earthquake energy? Then that would not have to be connected to the June 30 date, either since it is further away. Thank-You for reading!!! EQ Guy

Christchurch = Japan. . . Again?????

The correlation date for Christchurch/Japan from earlier this year = Japan on June 30th, but it is unlikely a similar sequence would repeat exactly, Just Sayin'. Could strike elsewhere you know, but Japan IS about due for 8 Mag. Aftershock. EQ Guy

Just copied that from my EQ Guy Facebook page and want to add that I counted the number of days after this years major Christchurch Earthquake until Japan and that number is like 17 days. . . so now 17 days after this recent Christchurch Earthquake will be June 30. Also this is very nearly the exact same movement of the Indian Ocean/Australian Tectonic Plate taking place, however that may not dictate the earthquake energy will necessarily strike at Japan again.

Japan, Japan, Japan!!!!! Is a Major Aftershock Due?

The earthquake energy from the Joplin Tornado headed in a straight line towards Escondido, and Mexicali, California, and continued on towards New Zealand. Next, a major earthquake or aftershock, struck at Christchurch this week and practically right along that line of new earthquake energy. Japan will also now be along that line, and perhaps at about the same number of days to follow as occurred back in the February / March 2011 series of events. It is possible, though, that it will not take the same number of days, or that it could happen sooner or take a few days longer for the new earthquake energy to reach Japan. It is also possible that this new earthquake energy will miss Japan and strike Indonesia, China, or elsewhere, but let me tell you Japan is about due for an 8 Magnitude aftershock. While there is a full moon on the night of Wednesday, June 15, this earthquake energy will not be set to be released on that night due to it still taking possibly a few days yet to move the entire Indian Ocean Tectonic Plate and push it up into the Japan region. The full moon actually only increases the amount of stress on existing tectonic plate boundaries and while it may release some earthquake energy somewhere, it may not cause a major Japan aftershock to occur right on the exact evening of the full moon nor the next night. . . but something very well could happen there just the same and we do pretty much know that earthquakes do tend to strike on the night of the full moon. Example, the big Chile earthquake from last year struck just a couple hours before the full moon, and the original Christchurch earthquake from earlier in 2011 struck two days after the full moon. So watch out for earthquakes the night of the full moon, and watch out for Japan to get a major aftershock in the coming days as well, but that could occur beyond the full moon days. EQ Guy

6.0 Richters, Christchurch Today!!!!! Keep Watching AND Full Moon Wednesday!!!!!

There are still a few days left on this alert, watch through June 24 but it looks like it might strike more up towards Japan now since Christchurch just got a 6.0 Magnitude Shaker! You can view that at http://www.nzherald.co.nz/nz/news/article.cfm?c_id=1&objectid=10731968 and continue to watch around California just in case, because i can't really guess how much earthquake energy went in to that Chile Volcano??? And Watch Especially a couple nights before and after the Full Moon Wednesday Night, too!!! EQ Guy

One Major Earthquake Seems To Be Out There. . . Yet!!! California???

Sunday will be Day 14 after the now great Joplin Tornado and so I write today just to mention that there does still seem to be one major earthquake which I expect to follow Joplin, that has yet to strike! Thursday, June 9 will be 18 days after Joplin and so let's be watching between now and June 9 for a major earthquake and I still want to post Escondido, California for about the epicenter, although Mexicali and Capistrano are also along that line. Of course movement between the North American and Pacific Tectonic Plates does not necessarily occur right at Borrego Springs or Huntington Beach, either, rather can probably shake anywhere along the San Andreas Fault or Hawaii/Japan for that matter and note that on June 9 when this alert basically ends for the West Coast, it continues several more days for Japan. Keep watching for 7 Richters or so, everybody!!! EQ Guy
