THREAD: Aftershock Forecast Updates: This forecast is based on data collected as of 7:55AM 2019-7-6 PDT According to our forecast, over the next 1 Week there is a 3 % chance of one or more aftershocks that are larger than magnitude 7.1...

Likely that there will be smaller quakes over next 1 Week, with 240 to 410 mag. 3 or higher aftershocks. Magnitude 3 and above are large enough to be felt near epicenter. Number of aftershocks will drop off over time, but a large aftershock can increase numbers again, temporarily

Due to very high rate of quakes in earliest part of the sequence, we're not able to count all events. Counts represent number of events that were located by our systems and is somewhat lower than true number that occurred....

So far in this sequence there have been 233 magnitude 3 or higher earthquakes, which are strong enough to be felt, and 4 magnitude 5 or higher earthquakes, which are large enough to do damage.
