Noticed on Wednesday that along with all the activity at Pakistan there was also a fair amount of seismic activity around the Carlsberg Ridge area not too far from where the new island has formed. New Island already has a formal name as well as a Wikipedia Page @ http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zalzala_Jazeera
The movement at the Carlsberg Ridge reminded me to mention here now that the 7.7 at Pakistan was probably only the initial shock of that landfall of Super Typhoon Usagi near Hong Kong and that eventually that entire tectonic plate will probably end up being pushed a number of centimeters such as seems to have occurred at New Zealand as a part of a similar situation earlier in the 2013 Typhoon Season there. WHEN the Indian Ocean Tectonic Plate does eventually decide to start moving it could be Banda Aceh, Phuket, and the Andaman and Nicobar Islands getting a lot of the shaking. I'm basically naming those places here right now because it is the region where the Sumatra 2004 Earthquake and Tsunami struck and could be due for more earthquake energy. This could strike other places and I can not say Pakistan was the sum total of all this here earthquake energy. . . might not have been. Therefore let us keep watching that region for a huge earthquake.
There will also continue to be a lot going on at Anchorage, and Alaska that I will keep working on and keep my EQ Blog readers up-to-date on in the remaining days before this next possible upcoming Major Alaska Earthquake might strike!!! Here is that Official Prediction: http://earthquakealert2.blogspot.com/2013/09/official-prediction-for-major.html
And of course our West Coast and California could get some coincidental shaking as these tectonic plates are moving around in other parts of the world, but there is not a major alert with California in the headline at the moment. Always remember earthquakes can strike at any time just the same. Thank-You for Reading!!! EQ Guy
