NERVS update

Hi All, 

Activity within the NERVS experiment area, especially California, has continued to be light and at low magnitudes, and as a result, most pattern identification has been communicated through the NERVSupdate Twitter feed. However, a rapid uptick in precursor activity along with a notable rise in magnitude, including events in Myanmar, Lac Kivu region (Congo), Xinjiang (China), Iran, Honshu (Japan), Taiwan, Vanuatu, and the 7.1 event in Puebla, Mexico, yield the following NERVS update:

4.5 or greater magnitude in next 10 days:
- Primary vector: Central California (including offshore), Northern California (including offshore), Southern California (including offshore), Oregon (including offshore)
- Secondary vector: Baja California (including offshore), New Mexico, Wyoming, Idaho, Utah, Nevada, Arizona, Oklahoma (if so, 5.0+)
- Also possible: Vancouver Island (Canada), Washington

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.
