On Nov 12, the tenth 7.0+ magnitude earthquake occurred. It was off the coast of Fiji, a recent hotspot. Resolving as YES.

In the last two days there have been two more 7.0+ earthquakes, brining the total to 9

As of 10/1 there have been 7 such earthquakes.

This week there were two 7.0+ earthquakes (Papua New Guinea and Vanuatu). We're up to 6 on the year.

With today's 7.0 earthquake in the Philippines, we're up to 4 on the year.
