This phenomenon follows a severe storm. The two events will be some
multiple of 15 degrees apart. Usually 120 but sometimes 90 and
sometimes 60 degrees.

Of course since a storm has just run through Japan, the distance to
the Burmese peninsula from Honshu being 45 degrees makes no
difference: http://earthquake.usgs.gov/eqcenter/recenteqsww/Maps/
