Yuppers. Expect a few more small eqs, and then remember my advisery (dare I call it a prediction?) before the big one strikes Pacifica. From that first microquake that showed up a couple of years ago in the very same place, I saw the future, >7.0 I have been expecting.

We're probably going to have to see one or two 5+ foreshocks first, as with Loma Prieta. Pacifica, Daly City, and the Crystal Bay Reservoir are my best three locations for the next big one in N. Cal.

Very close to one another and at at the end of a peninsula to boot.

This will undoubtedly be a very long and open- ended forecast, not meeting the criteria of the stated guidelines for proper predictions.

Still, when we are ancient, or maybe tomorow, there may be a winner among us.

So, during this crazy season let's give it a week for all predictions to be in. PST please.

It might only be a short while till the event, or decades before we see a 7+ at that locations. Possibly neither, but I doubt it.

I'll let those of you much more versed in this extablish reasonal perameters. I think everyone entering should be granted three tries. They don't have to be as geogaphically close as mine are, but lets give it a go.

What thinkist thou?
