• Looks like our DeLorean hit 88 miles per hour a little too hard! A recent style update went sideways, sending us back to a retro look for a bit. We've parked that faulty future theme for now while we tinker under the hood.

I know the Aleutian Islands are pretty active but as of late it seems like they have been a little more severe in magnitude.
 
That they have. The sun hasn't been the cause of them either. This has to be pressure related and I would watch Volcanos in the area. Glad to see that the 6.4 didn't cause a Tsunami.
