here is the video covering the past 24 hours of earthquakes (4/28/2012 and 4/29/2012):
——————————————–
The past 24 hours .. we saw a 6.7M in the southwest Pacific (Tonga) north of New Zealand…. and now a 5.9M in Japan.
Be aware of this ongoing rollercoaster of large earthquake swarms. We see them occur in clusters.. so be aware we may be seeing another uptick in seismic activity.
