massive Earthquake Off Russia Triggers Tsunami Warnings, Sparks Renewed speculation on Psychic’s Predictions

A powerful 8.8-magnitude earthquake struck off the far eastern coast of Russia on Tuesday, July 29, prompting widespread tsunami warnings across several nations, including the United States, Russia, Chile, and Japan. The seismic event,one of the most powerful ever recorded in modern history,generated waves of up to 5 feet high in Northern California and triggered tsunami sirens in Honolulu. In Japan, authorities issued evacuation orders affecting nearly two million people as a precautionary measure. As of Wednesday, July 30, all tsunami warnings had been lifted, with officials reporting no fatalities from the quake or its subsequent waves.

The meaningful earthquake has reignited online speculation surrounding the predictions of a psychic named Tatsuki, who has a history of accurately forecasting future events. Tatsuki’s latest book, “The Future I Saw,” prominently features the date July 2025, a detail she reportedly felt compelled to include with the same urgency as her earlier predictions from 1999. This has led some individuals to take precautions, with TikTok videos discussing potential scenarios and some people reportedly leaving Japan ahead of the predicted date. Greater Bay Airlines, based in hong Kong, even noted a decrease in bookings for July 5, according to earlier local reports.

However,media host Lei,known for her programs “Lei’s Real Talk” and “Lei’s Looking Glass,” has offered a clarification regarding Tatsuki’s July 2025 prediction. Lei, who has a Chinese background and focuses on censorship and truth in the digital age, explained during a YouTube livestream that Tatsuki’s statement was: “If the day of the dream is also the day the disaster unfolds, then the day of the next great catastrophe will be July 5, 2025.” Lei emphasized that Tatsuki did not claim a disaster would occur on that specific date, but rather that it marked a potential moment for humanity to “wake up to the coming danger.”

Despite scientific consensus that earthquakes remain unpredictable, the recent powerful quake has fueled continued online discussion, with some social media users suggesting Tatsuki’s dreams may have once again aligned with reality.Alex Delia (Deputy Managing Editor), Lawrence Banton (Digital Producer), and Harry Fogle (Video Editor) contributed to this report.

Seismic Predictor Clashes with Geographer Over Warnings

“Brazilian of Earthquakes” Defends Methods Amidst Criticism

A public dispute has erupted between self-proclaimed seismic predictor Aroldo Maciel and respected Geographer Marcelo Lagos, igniting debate over the responsible dissemination of earthquake information.

Expert Doubts Prediction Validity

The controversy began when Lagos publicly questioned Maciel‘s approach to forecasting earthquakes during a television appearance. He labeled Maciel an “irresponsible character,” suggesting his predictions could incite unnecessary public anxiety.

Journalist Eduardo de la Church weighed in, stating, “You also have to make a mea culpa, we the media, because how many times we talk to Aroldo Maciel. The chanta exists because one exposes it.”

Maciel Defends Forecasting Approach

Responding to the criticism, Aroldo Maciel held a live broadcast to defend his work and his followers’ faith in his methods. “It seems that Marcelo Lagos questioned my method and treated me irresponsible, but they were already notified,” Maciel stated.

He further asserted his track record, telling viewers, “Is the method in doubt? Well, the people who follow me have no doubt, because I was announcing 8.7 to 9.3 and there is the event.” Maciel indicated he had been in contact with individuals in Chile, advising them to prepare for a potential major earthquake in mid-2025.

The Science of Seismic Forecasting

While Maciel focuses on potential precursors, scientific earthquake prediction remains an elusive goal. Organizations like the United States Geological Survey (USGS) emphasize earthquake preparedness rather than specific timing predictions. For instance, California has a 99.9% chance of experiencing a magnitude 6.7 or larger earthquake in the next 30 years, highlighting the certainty of future seismic activity in earthquake-prone regions, but not its exact timing (USGS).

Broader Implications for Public Safety

The exchange underscores a significant challenge in communicating potential natural disaster risks. While intended to foster preparedness, specific predictions, particularly those lacking robust scientific consensus, can lead to public alarm or complacency. Experts stress the importance of relying on established scientific guidance for disaster readiness.

Arica Earthquake and Tsunami Devastates Coastlines

August 13, 1868 – A powerful earthquake, registering 8.5 on the Richter scale, struck near the border of Peru and Chile on a Thursday afternoon, triggering a catastrophic tsunami that claimed an estimated 25,000 lives and obliterated coastal cities.

The initial tremors were felt by residents near the Peru-Chile border, with many who were outdoors at the time of the 4:30 PM quake surviving the initial impact. However, those closer to the sea witnessed the ocean recede before being inundated by waves exceeding 15 meters. Subsequent waves reached heights of over 17 meters.

The port city of Arica was wholly destroyed, with other coastal communities in Peru and Chile also suffering severe damage. The disaster’s reach extended inland,affecting cities in Bolivia. beyond the immense loss of life and destruction of urban centers, the tsunami also sank numerous anchored ships. Notably, two U.S. Navy vessels in Arica’s port, carrying cargo valued at $2 million, were lost to the immense waves.

Tohoku Earthquake and Tsunami: A Nation in Crisis

March 11, 2011 – Japan was struck by a devastating earthquake and subsequent tsunami that resulted in the deaths of 15,550 people and triggered the world’s worst nuclear disaster in decades.

Following a powerful earthquake that shook the nation, concerns about a potential tsunami mounted. At Okawa Elementary School in Ishinomaki, students and staff debated seeking higher ground amidst fears of landslides.Tragically, 74 students and 10 teachers perished when the tsunami struck during their evacuation approximately 40 minutes after the initial earthquake.

The seismic event,caused by the collision of the Pacific Plate and the North American Plate,registered a magnitude of 9.1. The tremors were felt across nearly all of Japan. Within a short period, a tsunami with waves reaching up to 40 meters impacted 1,900 kilometers of Japan’s coastline.

In Okuma, the Fukushima nuclear power plant lost power, and it’s emergency generators were flooded. This led to the failure of cooling systems for three reactors,resulting in radiation release and the evacuation of the city. The economic impact of the disaster was staggering, with total losses estimated at $309 billion and over 130,000 people displaced by the tsunami.

A powerful magnitude 8.7 earthquake struck the eastern coast of Russia on Tuesday, prompting tsunami warnings across the Pacific Ocean.The United States Geological Service (USGS) confirmed the seismic event, which was strongly felt throughout Russia. The earthquakeS epicenter was off the Kamchatka peninsula, causing injuries and triggering alerts in countries bordering the Pacific, including Japan and Hawaii.

Several Latin American nations issued advisories, urging their populations to stay away from pacific coastlines. Ecuador’s Navy warned of a “high probability” of a tsunami,though no evacuation orders were immediately in place. Mexico’s government advised civil protection authorities nationwide to keep people clear of Pacific beaches, anticipating strong currents along the coast from Baja California to Chiapas.

Chile’s Hydrographic and Oceanographic Service also alerted its citizens. Alicia Cebrián, National Director of Senapred, emphasized that there is ample time before any potential wave arrival, advising the public to rely on official facts channels. Easter Island, a Chilean territory, was expected to be among the first to experience the tsunami, with arrival estimated around 11 a.m. local time on July 30.

Peru also joined the alert, with the Indeci National Emergency Operations Center warning its coastal population. Following the earthquake, a tsunami reportedly impacted the easternmost coast of Russia on Wednesday, flooding parts of the port city of Severo-Kurilsk, where approximately 2,000 residents live. The Russian Emergency Ministry confirmed that the population of the affected city has been evacuated.

Alaska Coast Struck by 7.3 Magnitude Quake, Tsunami Alert Canceled

A powerful 7.3 magnitude earthquake jolted the waters off Alaska’s coast, prompting a temporary tsunami warning that was later rescinded. The tremor occurred yesterday afternoon, impacting a remote region south of Sand Point.

Tsunami Warning Lifted After Initial Alert

The United States Geological Survey reported the significant seismic event, which registered at 12:37 PM local time. Its epicenter was located approximately 87 kilometers south of Sand Point, at a relatively shallow depth of 20.1 kilometers. Initially, a tsunami warning was issued for coastal areas of South Alaska and the Alaska Peninsula.

However, authorities revised the alert about two hours after the earthquake. The National Tsunami Warning Center stated, The Tsunami Advisory is cancelled for the coastal areas of South Alaska and the Alaska Peninsula. The warning was downgraded to an advisory before being entirely withdrawn.

Aftershock Activity Recorded

Following the primary quake, over a dozen aftershocks were detected. The strongest of these secondary tremors reached a magnitude of 5.2, according to USGS data. The region is known for its seismic activity due to its location along the Pacific Ring of Fire.

The seismic activity serves as a reminder of the region’s geological dynamism. For instance, in 2018, a 7.1 magnitude earthquake struck the Alaska Peninsula, also leading to tsunami advisories. (USGS, 2018).
