    Is this big enough to produce a Tsunami? Apparently maybe only a small localised one, but I'm supposed to be getting the ferry from Lombok to Bali shortly and two of those have already burnt down the last 2 weeks!

    I know large earthquakes are effectively random (ignoring aftershocks) but this feels like a lot this year, yeah?

    Interestingly enough, south of Spain also had a earthquake this morning: https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2026/08/14/world/europe/..., last one was in 2025 but before that 2021. Maybe too few data points to extrapolate any wider pattern, but skimming https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_earthquakes_in_Spain they seem to be picking up in frequency.

    This morning, when I woke up, I checked the phone notifications. I saw some alerts from the LastQuake app that a major earthquake occurred on Flores. I didn't feel it here in Bukit, Bali, where I currently reside.

    So Google Earth says the ocean depth at the epicenter is 6,286 ft / 1,916 m, but I couldn't find a corresponding tsunami alert or evaluation of risk.
