Solar Tsunami Rocks Out 6.0+ Magnitude Quakes

Yesterday a SPACEQUAKE ALERT: Solar Tsunami to Strike Earth was flashed to alert readers to the repercussions of the imminent impact of the solar storm upon the earth. From the Watcher's Lamp post:

" This solar tsunami may produce more than a spectacular light show. As previously reported, when the earth is in the path of solar storms, the earth's magnetic field takes a beating, which can cause:

• earthquakes
• severe weather events..."

The Rice Space Institute at Rice University described the storm: ..."although it was a nice storm, it wasn't a huge one."

In the last 24 hours (Aug 4, 10:00 PM) significant quake events have occured:

(5) 4.8 - 5.4 quakes, (4) 6.0+ quakes and (1) 7.0 quake.
