Canterbury could get at least two more aftershocks of magnitude 5.0 or higher, but the risk of a bigger earthquake is fading by the hour, GNS Science says。
The figures are based on hazard modelling that also calculates there could be another 20 aftershocks of magnitude 4.0 or bigger by this time next week.
GNS spokesman John Callan said there was now only a remote chance of a magnitude 6.0 aftershock.
The calculations suggested there could be up to six aftershocks between magnitude 4 and 4.9 today and again tomorrow, and up to five each day from Thursday until Sunday.
