fyi while the earth is on the other side of the solar system from all the other planets, i am expecting a high likely hood of larger quakes.
my suspicion is that the change in gravity and the EM fields effects the tectonic plates & electro-conductivity of the earths magnetic field combined resulting in a collective larger change of force, be that greater or smaller resulting in forcing or lack of holding.
generically i would expect the tectonic plates to move more freely at this time for the next month or so. this could increase or decrease the chance of larger quakes dependent on the build up of pressure on existing movement.
in some places i would expect the plates to move more freely resulting in less larger quakes, while in other parts where it tends to stick a lot i would expect it to create larger quakes.
places like the san adres and the general us Canada west cost pacific rim fault lines this would be good news
while for some areas with combined pressure from several plates combining like the fault line in the south west of Malaysia this would be bad news(though there is not many people around there and large quakes that happen hundreds of kilometers out to see are rarely noticed unless they cause a tsunami which might in the past wipe out one or several villages and people, the news would not travel so the event would not get recorded..

very large after shock also very close behind
so close behind i suspect it may be a single energy or there might be larger movement to come based on the deeper 6.0 in Argentina previously.

epicenter is close to a very long bridge that services remote farming communities.
i would be surprised if the bridge held together.
hopefully it did.
the wide river that shows it gets flood waters, likely has some land subsidence upstream which hopefully has not blocked causing a damn burt, it will probably silt the water which they would use for drinking.
note san adres fault line connection and fault line around panama
very similar pattern of quakes going in the same direction yesterday and the day before
thats good news because it means the plates are moving freely at an energy that is not damaging people or city.
