1033 Super deep Large Earthquake Alert. 6.3 EQ Fiji Region. Watch for Increasing activity. SAT Night
1 Mar 2026
A super deep 6.2 earthquake occurred in the Tonga Trench, potentially triggering increased earthquake activity in the coming days. Earthquake swarms are also observed around the Japan region and in Nevada, with the latter spanning multiple fault systems. The Cascadia subduction zone remains a concern, as it is well past its regular recurrence interval for a major earthquake.
A 6.3 magnitude earthquake occurred 370 miles deep, likely triggering a cluster of larger events around the Pacific plate. The Kilauea volcano shows signs of inflation, though the trend has been fluctuating between deflation and inflation. Space weather activity is low, with a 25-40% chance of an M flare and a 5% chance of an X flare.

- Tonga Trench Earthquake: A large, super deep 6.2 earthquake occurred in the Tonga Trench, potentially triggering increased earthquake activity in the following days.
- Japan Region Earthquake Swarm: A cluster of approximately 16 earthquakes, forming an earthquake swarm, was observed in the Japan region within the last 24 hours, potentially indicating a larger seismic event.
- Nankai Trough Seismic Activity: A 4.4 magnitude earthquake occurred near segment A of the Nankai Trough, a known hotspot for seismic activity, with five segments that have historically ruptured in pairs or simultaneously.
- Potential for Large Earthquake: The next rupture on the fault line studied is likely to be a larger earthquake involving the entire section, based on historical data and stress analysis.
- Recent Earthquake Activity: A small earthquake occurred near the southern end of the San Andreas fault zone, along with a few smaller ones near the locked area of the south branch.
- Nevada Earthquake Swarm: A swarm of approximately 40 earthquakes, with magnitudes ranging from 1.9 to 3.3, has been occurring in Nevada, spanning about 15-20 miles across various fault systems.
- Cascadia Subduction Zone Overdue for Earthquake: The Cascadia subduction zone is overdue for a major earthquake, as the last one occurred 326 years ago and the longest interval between earthquakes in the past 4,000 years was 291 years.
- Recent News Articles Misleading: Recent news articles suggesting that the Cascadia subduction zone is not overdue for an earthquake are misleading and potentially dangerous, as they may cause complacency.
- Other Earthquake Activity: There has been minor earthquake activity in other areas, including a 2.1 magnitude earthquake near Mount Lassen and a couple of earthquakes along the southern end of the Cascadia subduction zone.
- Deep Earthquake Impact: A deep earthquake (magnitude 6.3) occurred, potentially triggering adjustments and larger events around the Pacific Plate.
- Petroleia Seismic Activity: Petroleia experienced minor adjustments following the deep earthquake, indicating potential seismic activity.
- Kilauea Volcano Monitoring: Monitoring Kilauea volcano’s deformation data shows ongoing inflation, with fluctuations in the trend.
- Global Seismic Activity: Monitoring earthquakes in Japan (Nankai trough), Indonesia, Alaska, New Zealand (North Island), middle America trench, Chile trench, and South Sandwich trench.
- Space Weather Conditions: Low-grade seaflare activity, coronal hole number 24 south of the earth-sun plane, and sunspot regions with potential for M and X flares.
- Weather Forecast: Showers expected in California, potential for intermixing of cold and warm air across the western US, and a significant high-pressure system.
- Weather Forecast: A warm spell is expected for the majority of the country in mid-March.
- California Weather: California’s winter months (November-March) brought decent rain and some snow in the mountains.
- Deep Earthquake Impact: A 6.3 magnitude deep earthquake has been detected, potentially triggering larger seismic activity around the Pacific Plate.
