This last earthquake is split exactly between a thrust and a strike-slip. It is at the exact intersection and will be the trigger point for the M5 thrust coming soon (maybe).
Addendum: This junction point has absolutely nuts since then.
This doesn't mean anything in terms of when we expect the M5, but this sort of activity brings in a 6 in the far regions of the uncertainty fuzz. A pure thrust 6 does not bear thinking about.
Add2: Still nuts. I guess 20 M3.8's might be equivalent to a 5. :)
