Another Aleutian Quake
The ongoing earthquake cluster in the Rat Islands has produced another strong earthquake. Not large enough for a major tsunami, but underwater landslides could possibly cause smaller tsunamis on the surrounding islands. It's interesting that if you look at this cluster, the epicenters trend westward along the subduction zone over time. This sort of trend in one direction along a fault is typical of many earthquake clusters.
