Calif. Quake June Jitters 2005 Sequel?

A Moderate+ Shaker in the Works for California
by Cal Orey

I remember June 2005. A whole lotta shakin' was going on. We had the 7.2 and 6.7 Offshore NorCal; 4.8 (which I felt) in Tahoe Vista. And two 4.0+s in SoCal. So, the question remains, will June shake our Golden State?

Uh yeah, I think so. We did endure two 4.7's in May: SoCA near Long Beach and Keeler south of Mammoth Lakes (I was 100 miles off for the eq swarm/5.0 I forecasted for the Sierra region south of Lake Tahoe).

Prediction

A moderate+ quake will strike Calif. this month. Likely epicenters are plentiful and in this order: Offshore NorCal (Petrolia or Eureka); SF Bay Area (East Bay-Oakland, South Bay-Alum Rock or Morgan Hill) and felt throughout...if a 5.0+ hits it will be felt throughout NorCal. Mammoth Lakes isn't out of the question (we did have two minor swarms in May); and Tahoe Vista could have a repeat--overdue (the 4.7 Verdi Mogul Apr. 25 was the last time I felt the Earth move). SoCA? San Fernando Valley is still in the running for up to a 5.9 and near Long Beach (again). 60% probability a 5.0+ will rumble through California before June is over. More likely to happen during lunar cycles but not necessary.
