Original Note:
Tweet is factual. An earthquake hit off the island of Tonga May 10, USA time. It was not a prediction. The only small discrepancy is the stated 7.5 in tweet which may have been upgraded to 7.6 by USGS since the tweet posted. Reuters reported the earthquake as a 7.4. https://earthquake.usgs.gov/earthquakes/map/?currentFeatureId=us6000kawn&extent=-65.51296,-210.76172&extent=47.5172,-138.33984&map=false https://www.reuters.com/world/asia-pacific/earthquake-magnitude-74-hits-off-tonga-no-tsunami-warning-2023-05-10/
