Solar quake driving conditions arrived on cue but were weak and not enough to drive quakes. Quakes seem unlikely on 26 September unless conditions change. The next quake period begins late on 28 September and will probably have similar risk locations and magnitudes. Summary. 26 September. Tokomaru Bay 4.5 2.39am A significant small quake arrived early 26 September, partly meeting the forecast profile. The period was however a wobbly one from a forecasters point of view. Limited location success (you decide) and ongoing Pacific quakes after the forecast was dropped. New solar conditions are here late 27 September.
