will the prediction for 5 July come true¿

 

[Scrabby]

Shaking again

 

[Scrabby]

Hope to see lower lows in seismic intensity

Leading up to 5th July Mega quake?

Btw, 5.5 for Japan is "no feel", they used to it

Looks like this professor quite accurate on his earthquake model... Past few weeks of hundreds of micro and small earthquakes followed by a stronger quake reaching 6 on the scale... Looks like this 5.5 is the second phase... The article never say what follows after second phase...

Associate Professor Yokose has been analyzing seismic patterns in the area since quality data became available in the 2000s. He has identified two key phases of activity.

The first lasts about five days, with a rapid increase in quake frequency. That's often followed by a second phase lasting about two weeks, when the number of tremors drops but the risk of a larger, more powerful earthquake rises.

In fact, four years ago, a magnitude 6.1 earthquake struck on day six of such a sequence, reaching an intensity of 5+ on Japan's seismic scale.

Yokose says the current situation appears to be the first phase. And though it may not follow the same pattern as before, there is a chance of an earthquake up to magnitude 6. He says residents should be on high alert for the next week or so.

No connection to Nankai Trough​

Yokose stressed that this swarm of small quakes is not a precursor to a major event, like a Nankai Trough mega-quake. He says the tectonic mechanisms of the Kagoshima islands' tremors are entirely different from those that would trigger a massive quake off Japan's Pacific coast.

These are the end times.

wow means on the 5 jul will reach 8 smth magnitude which result in megaquake..
so accurate if it really happens!

Is this the appetizer before the main course on 5 July.

Godzilla sneezes.

Hope they have already made plans to evacuate the JAV industry

Nothing one la. Only irritating thing is the earthquake warning even if it is far away from where you are staying. When you sleeping also kenna. Damn loud.
