Three days later, a devastating earthquake struck precisely on the Turkiye-Syria border, causing massive damage and tens of thousands of deaths.<\/p>\n<p>Seismologist Frank Hoogerbeets at the Solar System Geometry Survey (SSGEOS) has issued a prediction of a major earthquake in the upcoming week.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe cannot know for sure, but the first week of March will be extremely critical. We could see earthquakes of magnitude more than seven or eight,\u201d the researcher said in a new video breakdown.<\/p>\n<p>The Dutch seismologist explains that \u201ca convergence of critical planetary geometry\u201d may lead to a very large seismic activity around March 3-4. According to the researcher, it could also result in a \u201cmega-thrust earthquake\u201d this weekend, with the power of the potential quake possibly reaching 8 magnitude on the Richter scale.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Planetary &amp; Seismic Update 27 February 2023\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/Ntd24t68ex4?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>According to Hoogerbeets, the US West Coast is the first place in danger. Seismic activity of up to 7-8 on the Richter scale is possible there at the end of the first week of March. Earthquakes of a similar magnitude have killed around 45,000 people in Turkiye since February 6, with the death toll expected to go up.<\/p>\n<p>Northern regions of Japan, the Philippines, Indonesia, and Russia\u2019s Kamchatka and Kuril Islands are also said to be at risk.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIn the first week of March, there could be several seismic events of magnitude greater than six. There are two scenarios: either a major seismic event will occur around 3 or 4 March [\u2026] or with some seismic amplification on 6 or 7 March, during the full moon,\u201d the seismologist\u00a0<strong>said<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>However, Danila Chebrov, the head of the Kamchatka branch of the Geophysical Survey of Russia\u2019s Academy of Sciences, has cast doubt on Hoogerbeets\u2019 predictions, calling him an<em> \u201camateur.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p>According to Chebrov, the connection between the movements of the planets in the solar system and seismic activity on Earth\u00a0<strong>\u201cis rather weak, and it\u2019s problematic to use it as the main prognostic tool.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>___<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/sputniknews.com\/20230301\/ominous-forecast-mega-thrust-earthquake-may-hit-us-west-coast-this-week-1107903913.html\">https:\/\/sputniknews.com\/20230301\/ominous-forecast-mega-thrust-earthquake-may-hit-us-west-coast-this-week-1107903913.html<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-158646","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/stateofthenation.co\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/158646","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/stateofthenation.co\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/stateofthenation.co\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stateofthenation.co\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stateofthenation.co\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=158646"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/stateofthenation.co\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/158646\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/stateofthenation.co\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=158646"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stateofthenation.co\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=158646"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stateofthenation.co\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=158646"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
