Sunday a 6.5 Struck Far North Alaska, followed by many aftershocks including at least one at 6.1 there. Please now be aware there are other tectonic plate boundaries we are watching that could be affected by this big time movement such as Japan, Iquique Chile. . . and possible San Francisco/Los Angeles!!!
THIS Far Northern Alaska Earthquake was now downgraded from a 6.5 to 6.4, and then to a 6.5 again and am not sure at press time what magnitude the now biggest shaker of this Far Northern Alaska Event is at, but let's call it a 6.5 just the same. The epicenter of the 6.5 is very close to all those other epicenters we've already been closely watching. . . for just something Major like this to happen! With the epicenter of the 6.1 aftershock right in that cluster, too! That entire mostly updated list will follow here somewhere as well as an updated felt report which currently includes two from Fairbanks at 500 miles to the south, and one from Anchorage 800 miles to the south:
6.5 - 64km SW of Kaktovik, Alaska
2018-08-12 14:58:54 UTC 69.624°N 145.247°W 9.9 km depth

This originally started as a list due to keeping an eye on Prudhoe Bay, Alaska! Today it's the list of all the earthquakes at the North Alaska Epicenter that so far became that 6.5 and COULD yet get a much bigger earthquake there. I'll leave this list and ALL the "Aftershocks" that are now following will go in my next edition because of course there's turning out to be a lot of them and here you can see 6.4 near the TOP:

At or near this epicenter of Macquarie Island there was an 8.1 prior to the great Sumatra Earthquake. . . and this one is much smaller so hope we're not watching for too big of an earthquake on this occasion although an update might point out it has so far came to preceed that Alaska Earthquake:
5.4 - West of Macquarie Island
2018-08-11 12:15:36 UTC 55.117°S 146.533°E 10.0 km depth

THERE'S an interesting story in this weeks edition about big California Earthquake that followed Hurricane John at Johnston Atoll, and NOW already looking at that Alaska Earthquake today!!! Here's Johnston Atoll-Hurricane Hector "Earthquake Minute" The Video From Studio There, For August 10, 2018:Check Out Johnston Atoll Earthquake Minute at YouTube@ https://youtu.be/5IQSk4FbFRA And The Transcript is@ http://earthquakealert3.blogspot.com/2018/08/johnston-atoll-near-landfall-by.html
20 earthquakes in the three days over this weekend at Hawaii. . . where they HAD been getting upwards of 700 a day there!!! I'll get a big update this week on what if anything is going on there these days. Here's the whole entire weekends worth beginning around noon Friday:

That's why I've always been following ones such as this one here near Los Angeles, because it could always be the next big one such as Alaska just got Sunday!!!
1.3 - 1km W of Agua Dulce, CA

The exact moment of the August 2018 New Moon must certainly fall somewhere in the midst of all this shaking over the weekend since it ran most of the weekend and only ended early Sunday Morning Central Time. In all events one must normally add at least a few hours to my statistical 24 hours before and after the exact moment and I know without checking that adding 3 hours would take us quite a ways beyond all the action of early Sunday anyways. . . so plainly we're looking at action involving the New Moon in at least some way!!! Watch now for some other places to have movement especially along those tectonic plate boundaries!!! And keep an eye on San Francisco and Los Angeles!!! Japan, too!!!
