The strongest geomagnetic storm of the new solar cycle
(so far) ... right on cue, the strongest storm of new Solar Cycle 25 erupted.

I can't remember a day like this for multiple large earthquakes ... seriously.

Two massive earthquakes have struck off the coast of mainland New Zealand, according to the U.S. Geological Survey, spurring two separate tsunami warnings. The first warning was revoked.

The first earthquake, of 7.3 magnitude, hit at 1:27 pm UTC, 94 miles from the Bay of Plenty in New Zealand, according to the Geological Survey. The earthquake shook at a depth of 20.8 km.

The second, slightly more powerful quake struck at 5:41 pm UTC, with a magnitude of 7.4 and a depth of 55.6 km. It hit near the Kermadec Islands off mainland New Zealand.

No injuries have been reported.

Gisborne Mayor Rehette Stoltz told TV New Zealand, “I’ve heard reports of little bits of damage, nothing major at this stage.”
