Update: A third large earthquake has struck north of New Zealand. An 8.1 magnitude happened near the Kermadec Islands Region around 11:30 PT. The epicenter is very close to the 7.4 preliminary magnitude earthquake that ruptured along the same fault as a 7.3 magnitude earthquake that struck early Friday local time. The second two, likely larger earthquakes, happened within hours after the first, but ruptured about 500 miles (800 km) farther from New Zealand’s North Island.
The latest, largest quake prompted Tsunami Alerts across the Pacific, including American Samoa and Hawaii. These alerts are in addition to Tsunami Alerts for New Zealand.

He is to do several updates. Apparently his computer system went down.

Three 7+ earthquakes in one day? I hope these aren’t a prelude to something bigger.

Maybe they can all go down and stick out their tongues at it.
Frightening.

Yes. This is the first short one after his internet came back on just after the earthquakes.
Interesting timing.

No tsunamis. Almost always a false alarm.

29 quakes 5.9 or higher, plus another cluster closer to New Zealand running up to 7.3

Typo. Should be “29 quakes 5.1 or higher”

Yes, the trend seems to be the earthquakes becoming larger and larger over time. . .

Greece also had a strong earthquake the other day with several strong after shocks.

I presume a lot of the smaller ones are aftershocks.

Hope so. If they are foreshocks ( and some are) the trend is upward.

If this is a trend, possibly another earthquake is about to hit.
Perhaps he may request access to the Emergency Broadcast System for our edification.
