RING OF FIRE

The plates are really rattling and rolling this weekend. With the advent of the new movie on a disaster earthquake in Los Angeles, we find a 7.8 off Japan. No tsunami warning, by the way. And just yesterday, there was an evacuation, due to a massive volcano eruption on a southern Japan island.

California also had some "minor" 5.5 earthquakes this weekend, too. You know the drill. These plates are absolutely moving. Expect to see this continue. If you're interested, the USGS has a great graphic that shows the current plates and movements here.
