7.1 Earthquake !!!!!! 1741 km (1081 miles) ENE of BRISBANE, Queensland, Australia

USG


No tsunami threat , Hitt just off the coast of loyalty islands , Any info would be appreciated , trying to see if loyaty island news has any info but unsuccessful , 5.0 + quakes have rashed out around Solomon Is and even here (North Queensland) since Japans Quake , i watch the USG like a hawk since the Bowen quake about a month ago , and freaked out a bit when i saw a huge red square outside of Queensland, keepin my eyes peeled on this rash of quakes !


Yo Mods , i thought i was in Fragile Earth?

already being discussed here

And what the hell is it doing on Japan's Nuclear catastrophe/earthquake forum?
