With regards now to ALL the shaking in that Tonga, Fiji, PNG Region. . . it is currently only going on Day-22 coming March 6 or 7 depending on the actual dates at the other side of the earth, so this means some of the busier more potentially important dates such as Day 33 is March 17, Day 43 is March 27th, and this alert runs especially for all those really shaky places out there in the Pacific the alert runs through the end of April so we'll be continuing to watch there! Remember New Zealand is a prime candidate for big time shaking, and Panama/Columbia also top the list along with probably more shaking around Italy, and that region!
