Very Strong 6.6 Magnitude Earthquake Strikes Southern East Pacific Rise May 20th 2026!

James Kaufman will news report today. Ladies and gentlemen, the USGS is reporting that we've been struck by a 6.6 magnitude earthquake from the southern eastern Pacific rise. This is a plate tectonic boundary, although we don't have a lot of information from this part of the world, obviously due to the lack of any land mass in these areas. what we were able to come up with is a 6.6 and that was a downgrade we'll get some more information in a second the only other information we have here is well nobody felt it because no one lives anywhere near it but they gave it a default depth of 10 kilometers that just means that they couldn't actually figure out how deep it was we had a nice aftershock of a 5.0 right there on top of it as well. So we have a lot going on down there. Taking a look around the whole globe, everything you see here are larger than 5.0 earthquakes. So we're fairly busy all day with large quakes. I guess this is the charge of the plates that we saw occur from the two days of geomagnetic storm that we just have gotten out of. Now taking a look at the large quick here a 6.6 see what we can find out we have the usgs is the main source here and they're coming in at a 6.6 of default depth we have germany also coming in at 6.6 default depth we have the french coming in at a 5.4 that country is always wrong and always backwards they always come in several magnitudes below any other country in the world period although i have a lot of heritage out of france they seem to be incompetent let's get some more information about this quake and find out how strong it really was moving over to volcano discovery.com we find out It was a very strong earthquake, a magnitude 6.6. It was a southeastern Pacific rise. It was today, the 20th. All right, folks, let's get some real information. All right, here we go. A 6.6 main source USGS. What we're really looking for here is 7.5 atomic bombs worth of energy, I thought it would have been more. were released with this earthquake. You would think that there would be a tsunami warning, so I did go ahead and look at the tsunami map, which we will review in just one moment. Obviously, there's no shake map or DYFI because there's no population anywhere near the area. So nobody but some of our sensors felt it, that one report. Now, at the time of this last update, there was not an aftershock we of course saw that there was a 5.0 aftershock the last few minutes let's go over the data from different reporting agencies we'll start out with the USGS at 6 6 Germany at 6.6 the French a 5.43 plus or minus 2.4 ridiculous raspberry shake a 6.1 default depth the europeans came in at 6.6 the australians who were right on top of it came in at 6.7 this was downgraded from a 6.7 by the USGS as well and finally the incorporated research institute for seismology came in at a 6.6 as well as well and you can see here the asterisks A depth given as 10 kilometers often means that the depth of the quake could not be determined with sufficient accuracy. Now, we see a lot of earthquakes in this exact area, but this is the strongest one we've seen in 25 years, or more than 25 years. So, this was a very strong quake. The one we saw before that was a 6-7. If this was not downgraded, we'd have to go back a lot further. Let's see how far. I don't even think that it goes back any further. This is 1935. So that is almost equivalent to the strongest quake we have ever seen in that area. And again, without the downgrade, it would have been the same magnitude as the strongest quake ever seen in that area. Now, one would think that a tsunami would have been created if 7.5 atomic bombs worth of energy were released under the water here, but we don't see any buoys in event mode. Now, obviously, we really don't have any buoys down here, and it could have created a small tsunami that pittered out, but usually you would see it on one of these buoys throughout the Pacific here. So, it doesn't look like any tsunami was created, even though it was a very large earthquake. So, to summarize, what do we have? We've got a mess on our hands. Obviously, the west coast of the U.S. is really rumbling. This all has to do with the geomagnetic storm that we're in for two days. The Aleutian Islands are really rumbling. Oh boy, Anchorage is really rumbling. We have a lot of 5-plus earthquakes on the table, and we have this big 6.6 down here on the southeastern Pacific rise, depth unknown. This is a very large uptick in earthquakes, one of the larger upticks we've seen in quite a while. Again, we do have also, I think, a 5.9 right here. yes a 5.9 it was a 6.0 but was downgraded as well earthquakes were popping over on the west coast as quick as possible with that said the story of the day the 6.6 no tsunami created definitely definitely thought that would be please share please subscribe and always remember anything's possible in bizarro world
