Well I guess what is being argued is whether this is the time that Christ warned us about?
There is no direct link between sin and antural disasters. Though God could and has used disasters to punish sin, we can’t really say with assuredness which disaster is associated with sin (though really all disasters and sufferring and death is a result of Original Sin if you wish to argue that).
Now… is this the period that Christ warned us about? We can guess… if it is so, then we can expect to see increases of natural disasters in terms of frequency, said that it will happen so often that the world would begin to see it as the work of God. But works of God are not necessarily supernatural, often it is only His hand guiding natural events.
So is it? Well, I suspect so… but we can only wait and see, however we can never afford to sit back and not pray to God about it. Often such times are a signal to us to turn to the only source we know capable of saving us from it.

I heard Bishop Sheen say it on TV.
Padre Pio “The Rosary is the weapon.”

Scientists puzzled that there was no tsunami after the quake.
*"The warning center initially estimated the Dec. 26 earthquake to have a magnitude of 8.0, but it turned out to be larger, with a magnitude of 9.0.
Monday’s preliminary estimate was magnitude 8.5 but had no destructive tsunami."
