On this day in 2012, Suva was strongly shaken by a M4.6 earthquake centred near Mt Korobaba. Shaking was strong enough to knock pots off shelves and halt the Coke games. This area is in an active seismic area with frequent tremors as well as the deadly 1953 earthquake & tsunami.
A hot day across Fiji today as a warm northerly airflow prevails. Real feel temps are into the 40s across most of the country with high humidity. Remember to stay cool and hydrated.
7 earthquakes recorded in 15 mins tonight on my @raspishake in Rakiraki. Five of these were micro-tremors located within Rakiraki and two were local events north of the Yasawa region with a M3.6. While these tremors are harmless, it highlights Fiji’s active seismicity.
A major M7.4 earthquake has struck the eastern coast of Taiwan, strongly shaking much of the island. Reports of damage have started to come out with collapsed buildings. This event poses no threat to Fiji. Recorded on my @raspishake in Suva.
Earthquake Information bulletin issued. Date: 02/04/2024 Time: 05:38:50 PM Magnitude: 3.7 Depth: 10 km Location: 7 km ESE from Navolau 1 Village, Ra. Offshore Earthquake FELT EVENT However, it does not pose any immediate tsunami threat to the region.
In March 1932, a destructive M6.5 EQ struck just off Koro Island damaging the lighthouse & caused a landslide which swept half a village into the sea. Strong shaking was felt as far as Suva & Labasa. Reported intensities: Koro - 7 Ovalau - 6 Savusavu - 6 Labasa - 5 Suva - 4-5
A minor tremor has occurred in the Rakiraki area and has been felt by some. It was ~M2 with a shallow depth. Recorded on my @raspishake.
This part of the world is very seismically active. This is a great video series describing the tectonics of the region that was created by Bob Butler and Jenda Johnson at @EarthScope_sci and narrated by me! youtu.be/7ewdkZ-H0oY?si…

A shallow M6.4 earthquake occurred about 480km SW of Fiji at 1:28pm FJT and poses no threat to Fiji. By looking at past seismicity of the area (R) it is evident this is a very active area with at least 22 M6+ and 2 M7+ earthquakes in the last 100 years. Recorded on my @raspishake
Earthquake Information bulletin issued. Date: 27/03/2024 Time: 01:28:21 PM Magnitude: 6.3 Depth: 30km Location: 458km SW from Nabukelevu, Kadavu. Offshore Earthquake However, it does not pose any immediate tsunami threat to the region
Stay vigilant when driving at night in severe weather. A minor landslide has occurred along Kings Road just before the World Harvest Centre this evening. Fortunately it hasn’t blocked traffic, only a section of the footpath. ⚠️
A trough of low pressure remains over Fiji with more heavy rain and thunderstorms expected today. Fiji Met has issued a Severe Thunderstorm Alert for Heavy Rainfall for many parts of Fiji. Thunderstorms, strong winds and flash flooding can be expected. ⚠️
Water levels have continued to rise, with strong currents cutting off access to Waiyanitu Settlement in Namosi this afternoon. 🚨🚨PLEASE STAY AWAY & REFRAIN from attempting to cross flooded rivers, streams, roads and crossings for your own safety‼️
Thunderstorms have developed over eastern parts of Viti Levu this afternoon. Expect heavy falls and lightning. ⛈️
A minor, shallow tremor was recorded on my @raspishake in Volivoli at 4:47pm and was felt in parts of Rakiraki. While the seismic swarm experienced last year has quietened down, minor tremors are still occurring sporadically.
Thunderstorms have been affecting parts of Viti Levu throughout the day which will clear out overnight.
🚨JOINT MEDIA STATEMENT🚨 By: @FijiNDMO & the @FJMETservice ✅ Fiji Met confirms severe destructive winds reported in Nakasi yesterday was a “small/mini tornado” ✅ READ MORE ⬇️
Reports of a whirlwind in Nakasi this afternoon as storms moved through the area. Damage reports incl roofing iron ripped off some homes. In 2020, during TC Harold a tornado also occurred in the Nakasi area damaging homes and schools.

A shallow M4.1 just shook parts of Auckland & the Waikato @ 1:25pm. Its epicenter was on the Taranaki fault off the West Coast, 80km W of Hamilton, 125km SW of Auckland city. Historically, the largest quake on this fault line was a M6.2 on 24th June 1891. 70km SW of Auckland.
Earthquake Information bulletin issued. Date: 24/04/2024 Time: 01:23:59 PM Magnitude: 5.0 Depth: 24 km Location: 527 km ESE from Noumea, New Caledonia. Offshore Earthquake However, it does not pose any immediate tsunami threat to the Fiji region.
The hotel building, equipped with 48 lead rubber bearings (LRBs) and 16 elastic sliding isolators, showed no damage after the quake. The LRBs displaced about 40 cm, only half of their design capacity.
Here is how a seismic isolator (lead rubber bearing) performed during the 4/03 Hualien earthquake in Taiwan, providing real-world insight beyond experimental testing. (Video: Taiwan Matsuzawa Co. Ltd) To explore seismic isolation further, read my op-ed: theconversation.com/buildings-left…

Earthquake Information bulletin issued. Date: 15/04/2024 Time: 08:56:28 AM Magnitude: 6.4 Depth: 57 km Location: 594 km NE from Port Moresby, Papua New Guinea. Inland Earthquake However, it does not pose any immediate tsunami threat to the Fiji region.
Wondering what those rainbows are? We've got you covered! We wrote a whole post about what InSAR is and how to interpret it after earthquake in Morocco. These images here actually show two earthquakes in Taiwan - one in 2022, and the recent one a few days ago. 1/
Fresh out！ The ALOS-2 #InSAR result of 2022 and 2024 #earthquakes in eastern #Taiwan from IES, Academia Sinica. The result suggests most of the deformations were offshore, with moderate coastal deformation. This is similar to what we observed along the coastline.
The earthquake near Hualien Wed. morning (Taiwan time) appears to be on a fault that runs through Hualien (pop. 350k). Magnitude doesn't tell you the damage - the shaking depends on magnitude and proximity to the fault. Expect much more damage in Hualien than other cities
Earthquake-triggered landslides on the northeastern coast of Taiwan. Hopefully not many people were on the coastal road.
