http://bit.ly/1zfNXza Two major earthquakes over the holiday period: A mag 6.3 Afghanistan and a mag 6.1 in the South Pacific It's a Green alert for shaking-related fatalities and economic losses for both quakes, with a low likelihood of casualties and damage. The two quakes are the 7th and 8th quakes of December bringing the total for the year to 145 major quakes for 2015 with just 5 days to go. November 2015 was an average month for major quakes with a total of 16 quakes measuring magnitude 6. or above, see graph above. Two massive magnitude 7.6ers rocked the Peru and Brazil border on Wednesday the 25th of November, both quakes within an hour of each other, luckily causalities were light. The total number of major quakes for this year is 136 with a month to go, slightly below average I would say. People keep mailing me to ask if major quakes are increasing, well the simple answer is no they are not, they have remained remarkably stable since 2005, check out the graphs below..... http://bit.ly/1NQno9D
