๐จ๐ EARTHQUAKE + SPACE WEATHER WATCH
๐ AUGUST 26, 2026 โ UPDATED
โ ๏ธ IMPORTANT NEPAL/TIBET CORRECTION
The seismic signal initially reported as an M4.4 earthquake near the NepalโTibet border is now believed to have been generated by the massive ice/rock avalanche itself โ NOT a tectonic earthquake that triggered it.
๐๏ธ CURRENT ASSESSMENT
๐ด Massive ice/rock avalanche: CONFIRMED
๐ Catastrophic debris/flood event: CONFIRMED
๐ ~M4.4-equivalent seismic signal: DETECTED
โ M4.4 earthquake triggered avalanche: NOT SUPPORTED by the latest assessment
๐จ Major rescue/recovery operations continue
๐ GLOBAL SEISMIC STATUS
โ No new M6.0+ global trigger
โ No new M4.5+ U.S./Mexico/Canada trigger
๐จ No new major USGS PAGER alert
๐ NOAA: NO Tsunami Warning / Advisory / Watch / Threat
๐ WEST PACIFIC WATCH
Vanuatu / Ambae remains a major area of interest following significant volcanic activity and Dutchsinse's renewed West Pacific watch.
โ๏ธ SPACE WEATHER
Recent solar activity includes:
๐ฅ Multiple M-class solar flares
โ๏ธ Strongest ~M6.9/M7
๐ฅ CME detected

โ๏ธ Solar/geomagnetic activity also being discussed in relation to seismic activity
โ ๏ธ SCIENTIFIC CONTEXT
Creator forecasts and proposed solar/geomagnetic-earthquake connections are hypotheses โ NOT established earthquake-prediction science.
Official seismic, tsunami and space-weather agencies remain our verification standard.
๐ก Monitoring USGS โข NOAA โข NASA โข Regional Agencies

"EARTH-DIRECTED FLARE AND CME: A CME is heading for Earth. It was launched by this morning's M7-class solar flare (sunspot 4513). A preliminary NASA model suggests the CME will arrive during the night of Aug. 27-28 at about the same time as the lunar eclipse."

Joel, congratulations on finishing the Daniel commentary. Iโm looking forward to reading it.
Iโm working through my own commentary on Daniel, and your 2013 blog post on Daniel 7 became part of my source material as I studied the relationship between Daniel 2 and Daniel 7.
My current conclusion is that the kingdoms of Daniel 2 are not the same referents as the beasts of Daniel 7.
Daniel 2 explicitly gives us successive kingdoms:
โAfter you shall arise another kingdomโฆโ โ Dan. 2:39
But Daniel 7 never explicitly identifies its four beasts with those kingdoms. And Daniel 7:11โ12 especially caught my attention: the fourth beast is destroyed, while the other beasts have their dominion removed, yet their lives are prolonged.
That pushed me to seriously consider whether Daniel 2 and Daniel 7 share a similar four-part structure while describing different referents and a different prophetic horizon.
Since you raised this possibility yourself back in 2013, Iโm very interested to see where you landed in the completed commentary.
