A strong, 7.3 magnitude earthquake has hit the Sea of Okhotsk, east of Russia’s Khabarovsk Region, and north of Japan’s northernmost Hokkaido island. No casualties, injuries or damages have been reported, and no tsunami warnings have been issued. The epicenter was 582 kilometers deep and was located 172 kilometers away from the city of Poronaysk, the US Geological Survey (USGS) reports. The strong tremor followed three weaker quakes in the region.

A strong earthquake with a magnitude of 7.5 struck off the eastern Russian coast to the north of Japan, the U.S. Geological Survey said on Tuesday, but no tsunami warning was issued by Japanese authorities.
The quake was measured very deep at around 580 km (360 miles) below the earth's surface. Japanese television said the quake was measured at 7.3.

Those 3 were like about 20+ mins ago. Usually they have the number of EQ's sorted out by now. So, I'm assuming it was indeed 3 quakes.

A few minutes ago, I was look at the Russian quake and saw three in California. I'm not seeing any now.
Really, how in the world could they make a mistake like that?
