New earthquake patterns since the Italy quakes have turned into new patterns in the Pacific region. Tonga, Vanuatu, Australia, Oregon, Alaska, all reporting major movement quakes. All of this activity happening while YNP is swarming.
Could this be the new pattern. Have we just moved into a new intensity on the West Coast?

You are perfectly OK in this forum.

Perhaps a little more detail would be useful, especially to know what patterns you perceive that have changed and how they have changed.
The fact that Yellowstone is/is not swarming really has very little to do with anything other than Yellowstone and so far it is not even a big swarm let alone a major one.
There is a bit of activity on the West Coast but then you could also say it is well overdue. Alaska has been very quiet as well but now the Aleutians popped off a 6.
Vanuatu? What major quake in Vanuatu. There was a 4.5 and a 4.7 out towards Fiji that we identified, otherwise I am aware of nothing current at Vanuatu.
So as I say, your reasoning behind the statement would be appreciated so that we can analyse it.

You are UNQUALIFIED to analyze this
You could not detect multiple major earthquakes in N island of NZ, Australian plate, ahead of time:
M6 earthquake offshore SW North island, NZ, 7/3/12
M5.5 - 168km S of L'Esperance Rock, New Zealand 6/22/2012
M4.6 - 23km ESE of Rotorua, New Zealand 6/21/2012
