Earthquake : Japan. On November 7th, 2026 11:07:43 AM, an earthquake occurred in Japan potentially affecting 1.8 million in MMI IV. The earthquake had Magnitude 5.5M, Depth:31.748km. The reported offshore position is in the Pacific Ocean. USGS PAGER assigns a green economic-loss alert and a green fatality alert. These are probabilistic model assessments; they are not confirmed damage or death totals, and they are not estimates of insured losses.
Flooding : Italy. On October 7th, 2026, a flood started in Italy, lasting until October 23rd, 2026 (last update). The flood caused 0 deaths and 235 displaced . The reported event location is in Foggia, Italy. For the 30 days ending October 6th, 2026, NASA POWER estimates 17.2 millimeters of rainfall near the reported event point. That is about 68 percent below its seasonal reference, indicating an unusually dry lead-up in this gridded estimate. The highest modeled daily maximum temperature in that period was 37.8 degrees Celsius.
Wildfire in Western Australia, Australia. On October 26th, 2026, a forest fire started in Australia, until November 5th, 2026.
