Death toll 563, with over 1,000 injured from this quake and its sequelae. I'm not sure if this should get more attention or the 6.4 quake July 29 (earlier in the series, but fewer fatalities and overall lesser impact).

The charts frankly suck! (The CapQ, as a stand-alone, is fine.)

So far, the death toll is 91 (it has been predictably climbing). I'm not sure if this should get more attention of the 6.4 quake July 29 (earlier in the series, but fewer fatalities and overall lesser impact).

The original quake in the series occurred July 28, 2018, 22:47:37 UT, 8S16'26'', 116E29'27''.

These charts are much better! (This is the first quake, and in some ways would be the one always studied except the later one was much worse.)

The initial assessment of this event was quite poor, though the CapQ did come through by itself at least with Mars square Ascendant (but at the outer edge of its orb, hardly stunning).

However, I asked Steve to confirm calculation of PSSI progression of the Capsolar, Cansolar, and Arisolar and we hit a bonanza. I'm still not convinced we have a workable, reliable tool in the PSSI because it has been difficult to find sufficient examples that are stunning. (They are so few that they might just be occurring by chance.) But to have a three-for-three hit on this particular event is sobering.
