Kinda shallow for this area but still deep...so should not be a tsunami threat...

Silly me! I had no idea these islands were located in the South Pacific, 600 miles or so from Tonga. I do hope our future crop of defensive linemen for the NFL are okay.

Geography lesson required. By the sound of the name, I was thinking an island off Iceland or in the Aleutians.

Kermit didn’t have that island lilt? Or did he speak differently to different crowds like Obama?

Yeah sorry about that...Kermadec’s eq’s are well known...just thought everyone knew by now.
The area is primed for a Mega-Quake in my opinion but more importantly there has been a lot of activity on the Pacific plate these past hours from Alaska, California, Mexico, Chile and Japan...definitely movement of the plates today.

Yeah would not expect such...perhaps NZ might get a ripple or two.
