Largest of a swarm. No tsunami warning. Looks like magma movement to the newer undersea mount forming.

I was just looking at that. Isn’t this a big one by Hawaii standards?

Is that the sea mount off the coast of the big island that you are referring to?

Is that in the place of the earth quake swarms?

There sure have been a lot of earthquakes on the Pacific perimeter lately.

I read somewhere else it was a 6.3.

There are about 1000 earthquakes between 5 and 5.9 every year.

I think we shouldn’t post those below 6 unless there is some special reason.

Earthquakes below 7.6 usually don’t make destructive tsunamis unless they trigger a massive landslide into the ocean

I live in Honolulu. It was barely felt here. I didn’t notice (had a week of high winds with more rattle), but hubby noticed a book shelf rattle (He works where there is no wind and was home today, so for him it was different). There were 8 aftershocks ranging from 2.5-3.4. It seems to be all over now. FYI, the epicenter seems to be near where Loihi(has a newer and longer name now) is currently growing into a new island ... Wait for it in about 50,000 years.

All is well here in Paradise. Mahal for your prayers. 🙏

Maybe the spirit of Aloha wasn’t pleased with the Hawaii Supreme Court’s Second Amendment ruling after all.
