Another Giant Quake: Third 7+ In Less Than 2 Weeks!
7.5 near Papua New Guinea again... this one generated a tsunami: http://www.theaustralian.com.au/news/world/png-earthquake-tsunami-warning-after-75-magnitude-quake/story-e6frg6so-1227336883732
This big quake came shortly after an earthquake swarm hit San Francisco, a 3.8 hit Los Angeles, and on Sunday two quakes hit DFW.
UPDATE: Over at RITAN someone pointed out that in an average year there are 15 earthquakes with magnitude of 7.0-7.9. That averages out to one of these sized quakes every 3.5 weeks.
In the last 10 days there have been 3 (about 7X more than expected):
5/5 - Kokopo, Papua New Guinea - 7.5
5/1 - Rabaul, Papua New Guinea - 7.1
4/25 - Nepal - 7.8
Only time will tell if this is just a fluke or if Luke 21:11/Matthew 24:7 is coming into view.
