Hope those people in NZ are okay but don't earthquakes happen everyday?
Not an 6.1... those happen maybe every week once... if not every other week. And besides its almost 6pm EDT with 15 mins to go and NZ has had the strongest EQ today so far now.
Yes. Aftershocks.
Japan had a 6.0 some days ago. They will continue for some time now.
This is the most south earthquake today Japan is north... Not an aftershock. Bu t on the map EQ's have been happening around the 6.1 for a couple weeks now.. I guess the big one finally came.
Earthquake activity is ALWAYS high. Look at the significant earthquake history and you'll see that there's always something going on. The 6.1 in NZ was in a vastly unpopulated area and even those islands felt only light shaking. If this was the big one, it would have happened in populated areas. 6.1, while big, isn't as big as a 7, 8 or gosh, 9. I think the rapture would have started with a mega quake.
