NERVS update

Hi All, 

A recent NERVS pattern in mid-August yielded quakes in Central California and Nevada that were not preceded by an update, but which were preceded by the less formal (but still mostly accurate) NERVS Twitter feed. 

However, a pattern still appears to be developing. Therefore, quakes in the Andreanof Islands, Haida Gwaii Region (Canada), the Southwest Indian Ridge, Southern Iran, Southern Italy, the South Sandwich Islands Region, and North of Svalbard yield the following NERVS update:

4.5 or greater magnitude in next 10 days:
- Primary vector: Oregon (including offshore), Central California, Southern California (including Baja and offshore), Northern California (including offshore)
- Secondary vector: Oklahoma, Washington, Utah, Wyoming
- Also possible: Myanmar, Taiwan, Ukraine, New Zealand

For those new to the list, NERVS stands for:
Numerical (or "non-scientific")
Earthquake
Risk
Vector
System
...and is based on prior California quakes being preceded by similar patterns of quakes in other areas.
