There is a lot more earthquake activity when there is a Full Moon, which is January 6th!!!

Neither here nor there.
Plus the Sun has been very active this past week with solar flares, etc.

New Orleans sits on top of a major fault line, it's just that most people like New Yorkers, don't know of it's exitence. In fact, if there was any city in North America that was going to end up in the ocean due to a quake, it's not the west coast cities but it'll most likely be New Orleans.
What a terrible spot to plant a city.

The truly amazing thing is most of the major US cities sit on top of massive fault lines, and get this like Seattle, Austin Texas not only sits on a major fault like but also has two dormant volcanoes!

Interesting perspective.
As a Californian I can understand why you might think such thoughts.
We are thankful to know incredibly awesome folks as friends, neighbors, family and community members.
Yesterday’s 5.4 caused more severe damage in the Humboldt Bay region.
Lots of hurting folks.
Today a large winter storm is bearing down and we are hunkering down.
We got a half inch of snow.
Dear hubby was in a rush to get out to the coast and forgot his RX bag.
I hope he can get emergency refills.
And no, I do not wish huge catastrophic earthquakes for California.
Nor anywhere else.

Just downloaded MyShake app on my phone, of course, if/when I get an alert, the seconds of advanced warning will have been taken up setting my electric recliner back down so I can get up. Probably why Amazon delivery always rings twice. I'm in the geographic center of San Francisco on bedrock, so hopefully the shaking will be a little less up here on this hill.

Do you understand them to be predictive? That’s the feeling I remember.

With the unusual snow fall at out our place this morning our satellite dish did not connect to the internet.
If I am alive and tge net is up I will check in. With the incoming storm we might get more snow.
Feel free to message me your phone number and I will try to text if the net is down.

I am getting a major headache and our dog Dolly is anxious like before the recent last two quakes here. Sigh…..May all the folks in harms way be safe.

I don't have that much experience with them other than the observation that they show up just before the monster quakes go off.

That would be predictive, if you see them and realize what they are. I remember they were thought to be the pressure and sliding deep down would heat up groundwater which comes up as superheated steam, condensing as clouds, in a line pointing above the epicenter-to-be.

yes, but its not the same. I'll take the floods and hurricanes. I live on a ridge now and very unlikely of flooding, but wind and rain can cause damages, I'll take that over earth quakes.
Well I've never heard of them till now and I've lived in Quake country and being a prepper for over 3 decades.
...and I've given plenty of corporate New-Hire orientations about Safety issues, so I've tried to stay on top of these things. (Before I retired)

You are aware that Louisiana has several major fault lines?

Neither here nor there.
There's a lot of karst in that area, could be a massive sink hole developing. IIRC wasn't there a place in KS a few years back where a massive sink hole developed basically overnight in some farmer's field?
I've read part of the original research paper on this, it's very informative but not helpful for the most part. The theory is localized "active" section of a fault will indicate via instruments & Satellite photos increased heat rising from the area.
It was first noticed on Satellite photos where an opening in the overcast would appear. It has been postulated that the rising heat in the quake zone opened up these holes in the overcast sky. It some photos there was a thin line of clouds (heat induced) that followed the fault-line.
There is a second phenomenon where iridescent clouds form they are "Earthquake clouds" I really don't know much about that at all.

I'm down here in Oceanside, south end of Camp Pendleton. We have the San Jacinto fault line. The San Andreas is inland from us and lines up with the Salton Sea to the Gulf of Baja. Lots of small quakes. Last 5 pointer that I felt was back in about 2010 or so from the Gulf of Baja. That is where our larger ones come from.

I read somewhere that the sun will be at its closest to earth on January 4th, as well. Increased gravitational pull is expected. I will see if I can find more info to post.

EarthSky: Earth closest to sun on January 3-4 | Climate and Agriculture in the Southeast
Do you think that we are the coldest in the winter months because the Earth is farther from the sun in those months than in our Northern Hemisphere summer? Actually, Earth is closer to the sun in January than in July because of its elliptical orbit around the sun. The

Do you think that we are the coldest in the winter months because the Earth is farther from the sun in those months than in our Northern Hemisphere summer? Actually, Earth is closer to the sun in January than in July because of its elliptical orbit around the sun. The difference in solar radiation is small between those months compared to the larger variation caused the tilt of the earth’s axis toward the sun in Northern Hemisphere summer and away in NH winter. In fact, the perihelion (the day on which we are closest to the sun) is on January 3-4 this year (depending on which time zone you live in). You can read more in EarthSky at | EarthSky.
So far I haven’t seen anything specifically addressing gravitational pull, or other physical effects on Earth.

Yeah, um...
I'm good with it being even more overdue, given that I'm just barely east of the I-5 corridor that they consider the boundary to which everything west will be, and I quote an expert, "toast".
That expert was definitely being a bit of a drama queen, but I still would prefer to not experience that earthquake in person.
