14 May.
Southeast of Dannevirke 3.8 8.54pm
Hawera 3.9 9.11pm
15 May.
Hawera 4.0 5.39am
Southwest Arm Te Anau 4.2 1.25pm

The period was mostly quiet except for a small quake swarm beginning in previous risk location Dannevirke, followed a few minutes later by a deep Hawera 3.9.
Quakes are often clustered in time because auroral quake driving forces are global.
Quake locations gave some match with the previous 11 May forecast period but weak spaceweather in May is widening quake response times.
