M6.2 Quake Strikes Izu Islands, Japan Region

More Shocks Could Strike Japan Region

Strong Earthquake Measuring up to 6.2Mw Strikes Izu Islands, Japan Region

The quake, centered at 29.8N, 141.6E,  struck Torishima Kinkai region at a depth of about 50km on Monday, 03 May 2010 19:28 JST (10:28UTC), Japan’s Meteorological Agency (JMA) reported.

Tsunami Status

JMA did NOT issue any tsunami warnings, advisory or watch, probably due to the fact that the shock occurred deep below the ocean surface.

Approximate Distances (USGS/EHP)

• 300 km (190 miles) NNW of Chichi-shima, Bonin Islands, Japan
• 405 km (250 miles) SSE of Hachijo-jima, Izu Islands, Japan
• 535 km (335 miles) N of Iwo Jima, Volcano Islands, Japan
• 685 km (425 miles) S of TOKYO, Japan

Fire-Earth Forecasts:

1. More shocks, possibly stronger than this quake, could strike Japan Region as a result of a new wave of seismic activity in the region.

2. Intense volcanic activity may occur in Japan Region in 2010.

FEWW: Alaska Earthquake Warning

A powerful earthquake could strike Alaska anytime

Based on the FEWW ‘EarthModel’ simulations, Moderators believe a powerful earthquake may strike Alaska anytime [probability of 0.8]

Previous FEWW Forecast

FEWW Forecast: An area within approximately 300-km radius of Anchorage would be one of the seismic zones in Alaska to experience continued intense seismic activity this year possibly including a magnitude MW 7.9 or larger quake close to Anchorage  (south of the city, north of Rugged Island).
