5.8 on USGS, was revised but only for depth.

Not sure what it's original mag was since it was already version 7 by the time it got into the listings.

Were you peeking at the incoming messages on EMSC?
The first location they had was Western Australia !
They ended up with 5.9 Mw

If I have nothing to do I pick a quake each day and look closer into it

1st I had a a look at Red Puma

Then RAS, they had 6.4 mb

Then this;

Strong quake hits Indonesia's Java | DATE: 2010-06-26 | PRINT | JAKARTA, June 26, 2010 (AFP) - A strong earthquake struck off Indonesia's Java island on Saturday but there were no immediate reports of damage and no tsunami warning was issued, seismologists said. The quake struck at 4:50 pm (0950 GMT), 118 kilometres (73 miles) south west of Tasikmalaya, West Java, at a depth of 34 kilometres, Indonesia's geophysics and meteorological agency said. The Indonesian agency measured the quake as magnitude 6.3, but the US Geological Survey (USGS) measured it at 5.8. "The quake occurred on the sea. At such distance from the coast, usually there are no significant damages on land," meteorological agency's quake centre spokesman Aprilyanto, who goes by one name, said.

Missed this one, must have been asleep

There was a small Tsunami.

The Russians had it at ms: 6.8/16stations and mb: 6.4/14stations
Australians had 7.0, but they tend not to revise their readings.

Just missed the 7+ list by a hair!

12 x Minor (3's) and a couple of Light (4's) through the NZ Isles 26th June UTC, quite a strong string NE to SW 200-350km west of the Hikurangi Trough subbduction boundry, quite a number of them at depths of 124-217, I wonder if thats the Wadati-Benioff zone where the edge of the Pacific Plate is cracking and falling off into the mantle?

This quakes in Arkansas this month are quite interesting.

You folks might be interested in this thread. It is a specialist thread about Volcanoes in Iceland rather than a specific volcano and looks to me as if it might develop into a really good source. It was started by an Icelander.

Just in case you have not seen it.

reply to post by Roald


You find some more information I posted about Arkansas here on this thread where someone was looking at the past couple of days in isolation and making wild irrational assumptions.

There was a mini-swarm at the start of June and this latest activity seems to be related to that.

Japan's shuddering...

Yesterday I wrote that there will be a strong earthquake in Taiwan, and today is the increased activity in Japan to see. I hope I am wrong in my idea.

Wow Arkansas has been rocking lately - wondering why - unsual I think.

Not that unusual for the state of Arkansas, but I'm more interested in the reason why the June quakes are located in White, close to Searcy and the majority of them quite shallow. around 100meters. The quakes are a bit away from the area further East where we normally see most of the "regular" quakes.
