Earthquake!

 Several people have asked me about the recent earthquake in Indonesia that made the news around the globe. Thanks for your concern. We live in Sanur on the edge of Denpasar in Bali. The quake was 1200 miles away in the ocean and affected the Philippines too. Indonesia has more active volcanos and earthquakes than anywhere, maybe than everywhere else added up. I checked on a volcano/earthquake report site.

During the past 7 days, Indonesia was shaken by 1 quake of magnitude 6.0, 3 quakes between 5.0 and 6.0, 32 quakes between 4.0 and 5.0, 75 quakes between 3.0 and 4.0, and 49 quakes between 2.0 and 3.0.
Biggest quake: 6.0 quake Philippine Sea, Indonesia, Dec 5, 2021 8:47 am (GMT +9) 1 day 16 hours ago
Biggest quake today: 4.5 quake Molucca Sea, 86 km southeast of Gorontalo, Indonesia, Dec 6, 2021 5:33 am (GMT +8) 18 hours ago
Most recent quake: 4.3 quake Flores Sea, 88 km north of Bima, West Nusa Tenggara, Indonesia, Dec 6, 2021 10:24 pm (GMT +8) 1 hour 16 minutes ago
