A friend of mine has a young son in Tonga right now. I'm glad there was no tsunami.

Re: Earthquakes worldwide 6.0 or greater
I was looking for some information (google) and came across an astrology article that stated because of the current alignment of the planets (I believe the prediction was made a few months ago) that today and tomorrow (25th/26th) earthquakes of magnitudes over 7 are expected. If our resident earthquake statisticians are around this weekend, would be interesting to know the accuracy of these predictions. The article also stated the same for about June 22nd.

According to determined history it is just a matter of time until we have another "Super Eruption" somewhere along the border of the Ring of Fire ... the most likely possibility seems to be in the area of Yellowstone Park.

Prediction are just that, now between May 23 to May 24 there were 4 quakes ranging from 6.3 to 8.3.
2 near Fiji Islands and 2 Sea of Okhotsk.
I have my alerts set from 6.0 up, there were many more than those 4. (they were under 6.0)
This is most commonly used site here: http://earthquake.usgs.gov/earthquakes/map/
On the right side you can change the settings.

That is always a good thing, earthquake itself brings enough damage.
