Today, I woke up to see on the USGS quake map that Offshore OR is shaking it up (again). Remember the mysterious swarm that came and went? Well, it's ba-a-ck--maybe. I mentioned on Coast to Coast radio program that the West Coast "was" in a mega lull and said "stress, stress, stress" is building and that I'd be shocked if a quake in CA didn't happen in CA in the month of August. On August 7, 4 days after the show--a 4.9 did hit Offshore NorCal near Petrolia and was reported felt by residents in the region of NorCal. And that's not all...
See below my forecast the day after the national program (podcasts can be heard it you go to the Coast to Coast site...I mention it and include a link to it on my Website: www.calorey.com -- top right, click the C2C recap noted on August 3). An after thought: I think I noted on the recent program the past mysterious swarm Offshore OR...and how it's overdue to rumble. Note to self. Must listen. Or, if you do hear the show, please contact me at COrey39184@aol.com .
The next day, this forecast was posted right here on this blog and my Website Earthquakeepi-center.com http://www.earthquakeepi-center.com/ -- the popular thread on Earthquke Predictions forum regarding the prediction West Coast+ 5.0-5.9...

West Coast Seismic Lull May Be Over in August '09
West Coast Seismic Lull May Be Over
By Cal Orey
Last night I was a guest among others on Coast to Coast radio program. We discussed the ongoing earthquake wager in the works: Geologist Jim Berkland and I, an author-intuitive aka "earthquake sensitive" have had a bet regarding where the next 6.0+ will hit in Calif., the Golden State. I say NorCal, he says SoCal. Still all is quiet for more than 2 1/2 years.
Caveat: A 5.9 did hit Offshore NorCal in Nov. 2008; I did forecast the Long Beach 4.7 recent jolt. But that's it.All has been quiet until yesterday...a 6.9 struck the Gulf of Calif. and was widely felt in SoCal, AZ, TX, and Mexico. In two days, we have a Full Moon Eclipse...This may or may not trigger more quakes in the U.S. Or the quake south of the border could migrate north. I believe the "hot spots" in CA are Offshore NorCal, SF Bay Area, Sierra Nevada (Mammoth Lakes to Tahoe-Reno), and San Fernando Valley. And the Pacific Northwest (Offshore OR and near Seattle aren't immune). Probability of a moderate+ quake hitting in one of these regions this month of August is 70%.
