1300 Richters of Earthquake Energy So Far!!! Be Prepared!!!
It is presently Night Two after the full moon and I seem to recall both major New Zealand Earthquakes striking on like about the second night after full moons! That would be tonight and while there has been NO 6 Richters earthquake as of yet to be associated with this full moon. . . . . keep watching because, of course many of you know, there WILL BE!!! If not immediately, then you are also well aware that we are getting more and more overdue for something HUGE to shake! Foreshocks continue for Los Angeles, but keep in mind the December/January 2010 Baja California Swarm came to precede the Eureka 2010 earthquake. . . and the now Great Haiti Earthquake! This one should be all of that! The Grand Total of California Foreshocks so far is over 1300 Richters!!! So watch tonight and remember December 21, 2012 is coming!!! Be Prepared!!! EQ Guy
3.7 Last Night at Coso Junction!!!
They're Getting Bigger!!! Might as well say 4 Richters with the last couple that struck! One also struck out in the Santa Barbara Channel late last evening, too! Now we should just watch for them to start hitting 5 Richters because that might mean it's time for somebody to do something, here!!! Keep Watching. . . and Be Prepared! I'm Not Kidding!!! Don't listen to the nay-sayers here, this is a serious matter!!! Thank-You! EQ Guy

JUST SENT OUT A FEW LAST MINUTE "TWEETS" BEFORE NIGHT OF THE FULL MOON ARRIVES:
The EQ Alert Guy @EQAlert-- I will be on tonight if earthquake has not happened by supper time! Watch for Tweets as the Full Moon rises in the East tonight!!! EQ Guy
The EQ Alert Guy @EQAlert-- This upcoming Major Earthquake should NOT be bigger than World Series/Loma Prieta Earthquake of 7.1 Richters, so now watch for 6.5 to 7.3!!!

UPDATE OF OFFICIAL PREDICTION FOR A MAJOR EARTHQUAKE TO STRIKE LOMPOC, CALIFORNIA BEFORE NOVEMBER 26, 2012
First, I want to note that the banner headline of the Official Prediction we are talking about here states November 26, 2012 and I want to add the full moon will be November 28, 2012 and so this Official Prediction will have to be extended at least through the end of the month of November of 2012 to include the full moon. Beyond the end of November 2012 please also note this is genuine earthquake energy and as of this writing there is no concise timeline for this sort of event, therefore we will mostly just go on to watch for this large scale earthquake event that eventually WILL STRIKE somewhere and it is only a matter if it strikes at California or decides on a lot of small shakers there and goes on to be the next big Hawaii, New Zealand, Indonesia, or Japan Earthquake and I suppose possibly tsunami through December 21, 2012.
Next, I want to add that it looks to me like California has been experiencing a HUGE amount of what just might be foreshocks and while these have mostly been in the range of 2 Richters, there have now been a few in the 3 Range. It is my opinion without having researched this point extensively, that in general when I view the latest earthquakes, this list is usually New Guinea, Indonesia, Fiji, Japan, and etc. with California making just an occasional appearance. The other way that I can judge here is that I will frequently view the map of Los Angeles, where all of the most recent earthquakes appear, and there quite commonly are none. Of course the last time I checked there were about a dozen just on the L.A. map alone before I realized that map only ran from Ventura County to Long Beach! Yes, if you Zoom-Out to the larger region or toggle over to the east there will be many, many more and that’s still not even counting Soledad, or the Pinnacles region much less the Frisco, Santa Rosa, and Eureka areas! It does appear there is a very large number of small shakers going on in California and since we know there is earthquake energy heading that way, you might assume these to all be foreshocks of something. Lastly, in the coming days if we begin to see more 3’s, some 4’s, and I think any 5’s at all, there will almost certainly be a major shaker to follow, but I still can not say that for sure.
I have no way of knowing if we are experiencing any indifferences in the radon levels since I do not presently know where those sorts of readings come from as far as California is concerned. I do know that in the days following the verdict at L’Aquila, Italy where those Seismologists who refuted that now accurate prediction resulting in 300 deaths, were sentenced to 6 years in prison, lost there licenses, and must pay victims, that town recently again was found to have high radon readings and this time it was decided to evacuate L’Aquila, Italy! As of this writing you can see many pictures of that town full of now empty streets while those folks have been safely evacuated and we wait to see what will happen there. Note that many of our own “Brilliant Seismologists” signed a statement asking that those former men of science NOT be punished, which ironically would have resulted in NO action being taken today. Similarly, NO action will probably be taken in California this week.
Yesterday, I found a great old movie titled “The Great Los Angeles Earthquake” in which a seismologist connects an identical series of small earthquakes to the possibility of a 7.5 Richters major earthquake striking in just days. It rang true as far as these seismologists all believing the small earthquakes to be foreshocks and the movie listed Name Edited Lady from Cal Tech as a Technical Advisor. Where is Name Edited Lady when we need her? If these are foreshocks can we count on her to act in real life like the lead character, who sort of resembled her, acted in the movie? Will Name Edited Lady or any other California Seismology person inform the Mayor and Governor like in the movie, and in time for people to prepare for an earthquake? Also, Ed Begley, Jr. was in this Great 1990 movie available on DVD although I borrowed a copy from a library.
It has occurred to me in the days since this original filing that there have now been many other incidents of hurricanes, typhoons, and tornadoes preceding California earthquakes including Hurricane Frances, Ivan, and Jeanne preceding the 2004 Parkfield Earthquake, The Great June 1992 Tornado Outbreak preceding the June 28, 1992 Landers Earthquake, Hurricane John at Johnston Atoll preceding the 1994 Cape Mendocino Earthquake, and Typhoon Rokes’ landfall at Japan preceding that October 2011 shaker at Coos Bay, Oregon where I flew out to and personally experienced myself! There had also been Hurricane Hugos’ landfall at Charleston preceding the 1989 Loma Prieta/World Series Earthquake and now we have the landfall at New Jersey of Hurricane Sandy. Will the landfall of Hurricane Sandy at New Jersey be followed by a California Earthquake and be added to this list?
This Update may be the last chance for millions of people to be warned! There is only so much I personally can do in the final days before this upcoming potential Major Earthquake strikes the Los Angeles area! The record will now reflect the fact that I did herein serve notice via E-Mail to both the California Earthquake Prediction Evaluation Council, and the National Earthquake Prediction Evaluation Council and followed closely to the normal submission standards that have been explained to me on more than one occasion by more than one person from the Councils. I want to note here that at least one of those officials was very specific in reiterating to me that I should NOT submit to each of the individual members of the Councils and that my submissions will be reviewed by the Intake Secretaries that I submit to, with them deciding if anything should be done further such as I suppose the Chairman or other Council members reviewing in this case the present submission. While I personally truly wish myself or somebody could do more to tell the people of California to prepare, these rules are quite similar to those used by both my Carpenters Union, and my Screen Actors Guild Union where it is the job of the employee only to notify the next person in the “Chain of Command” therefore leaving any additional work on any matter to the appropriate persons. Similar to both of those unions, if something goes wrong here, I hope the higher up folks will pay dearly! This may be their last chance to do something, here, and then again all of this earthquake energy could roar on past California and strike outside of their jurisdiction in Indonesia, or Japan.
To the everyday California people reading this, pass the message around to other Californians so that everybody hopefully knows there is major earthquake energy heading for them! I will be very sorry if this major shaker strikes L.A. and someone asks why we didn’t tell them when we knew!

Huge California Earthquake May Be Imminent!!!!! 7.9 Richters!!!???
Today I want to write this in a format that might appear to be a huge warning, but I want to add this disclaimer to the blog post to remind everybody that I have no degree in Seismology or Geology and write all of my Earthquake Blog stuff with a basic carpenter apprenticeship and some years working on cars and at a junkyard and some other basic construction experience, so there may be no basis at all whatsoever for some of the assertions I make in the following:
CALIFORNIA DUE TO GET MAJOR EARTHQUAKE!!! 7.9 RICHTERS!!!
AS OF FRIDAY MORNING, NOVEMBER 23, 2012 THERE HAVE NOW BEEN MANY SMALL EARTHQUAKES STRIKING CALIFORNIA AND THIS COULD MEAN A MAJOR EARTHQUAKE WILL STRIKE IN THE COMING HOURS AND DAYS! EVERYBODY SHOULD BE PREPARED, THIS EARTHQUAKE COULD BE AS BIG AS 7 TO 7.9 RICHTERS AND PRESENTLY LOOKS LIKE IT IS GOING TO STRIKE AROUND THE LOS ANGELES AREA, WITH SEVERAL FORESHOCKS ALREADY STRIKING AT SANTA MONICA BAY, WRIGHTWOOD, AND UNIVERSAL CITY!!! HAVE BATTERIES IN FLASHLIGHTS, BOTTLED WATER, AND SOME EMERGENCY TOOLS HANDY. THIS EARTHQUAKE IS GOING TO STRIKE CALIFORNIA BEFORE THE END OF NOVEMBER 2012. BE PREPARED!!!
Now, that message in all caps might sound more certain of the potential for earthquake energy being released than my normal EQ Blog, but also keep in mind that New Jersey just got another 2.5 Richters shaker this morning and that is actually more than I might have thought. It might indicate that all of the small earthquakes at California are pushing against the San Andreas Fault and it is kicking back. . . shaking New Jersey one more time before it shakes California again! As I said in the above example of a more imminent EQ Alert, everybody should be prepared!!! EQ Guy

Still Getting California Earthquakes!!!
Just within the last couple hours there have now been several more small earthquakes around California. Earlier today it occurred to me the bulk of these earthquakes seem to be on the North American Tectonic Plate side of California and it is possible that this is causing some earthquake energy to be placed on the San Andreas Fault and eventually to the Pacific Tectonic Plate side of the Plate Boundary. There should then be hopefully small earthquakes around Malibu, Santa Barbara, Long Beach and possibly Frisco areas very near San Andreas and West of that fault line. Keep Watching and Be Prepared California because I know it will be Thanksgiving Day in a few hours here. . . but there continues to be a Major Earthquake lurking!!! EQ Guy

Earthquakes struck Studio City, Wrightwood, Fontana, and Portland all today!
Many, Many shakers this morning! Universal Studios, Wrightwood, Fontana/California Speedway, and Portland, Oregon all got 2 and 3 Richters Earthquakes just since 8 O'Clock on Monday Morning!!! Since last blog!!! Also note L'Aquila, Italy has been EVACUATED! There could be a major earthquake coming for California and it might be only moments away so please be prepared!!! God Bless! EQ Guy

IT IS TIME FOR SOME SERIOUS EARTHQUAKE PREPARATIONS!!!
The next major California Earthquake might only be days away right now. The past few days have been small shaker after small shaker after small shaker including several right in the heart of Los Angeles and many right in the immediate vicinity of San Francisco and Oakland. As a general rule just all of the little shocks alone might be enough to indicate there is something major coming.
While there has just recently been a judgment against several Seismology people at L’Aquila, Italy, it now forces us to ask the question of what should we be doing here in the United States given basically the same circumstances? Of course the present series of small shakers is not exactly the same circumstances, what would we do if someone in California just so happened to come up with a high radon reading similar to the conditions that preceded the 2009 L’Aquila Earthquake? Absent similar laws as Italy probably not much. That is not to say folks in California might spend their time better by drinking expensive wine, which was one of the statements charged to the Seismologists in L’Aquila. Rather, it may be time to start thinking more along the lines of some serious earthquake preparation.
With today being November 17, 2012 this potential next major California earthquake should be striking in about the next week or so. It should be in the range of 7 to 7.9 Richters and should strike between Los Angeles and San Francisco and by the looks of the fairly big series of foreshocks it looks like all of this earthquake energy is really headed there and right on time, too! Best case scenario we just get a series of medium sized earthquakes such as was what I refer to as the Mettler Swarm back on September 22, 2005 listed here: http://www.scsn.org/2005mettler.html as a series of 12 earthquakes in the range of 1.9 to 4.7 Richters that struck over about 35 minutes near Wheeler Ridge, California. That intense series of earthquakes probably released about the same amount of major earthquake energy as this now upcoming earthquake, but over the better part of an hour of ground movement rather than one huge jolt which all by itself might have been one good 7 Richters shaker just south of Bakersfield.
I have been asked a few times just recently by people who wanted to know what they should do? Is there an earthquake heading for them and what does that mean for them and their families? In answer to those questions it occurred to me that it might be time to organize folks who will be needed at the epicenter for rescue operations. Everybody should have flashlights handy and keep them nearby and with fresh batteries, too! Public officials might, if not this time then in the future, have some kind of a plan at the ready for the moment this or any major earthquake strikes and be able to immediately call or radio the other members of the response team with all of the important information. I personally turn immediately to my own personal transistor radio and have listened intently to KNX in Los Angeles for the latest updates on exactly where the earthquake has struck, this will hopefully be of some help to first responders who head right out to where the help is needed the most. Finally they like to say to have a few days worth of food and water on hand because that is how long it might be before such services are restored.
Whether or not this earthquake strikes California this time or not, we will need to be far better organized than we are right now! We will need a lot of answers right now for a lot of these questions that I am only able to give rough outlines for answers, and eventually with the state of earthquake prediction being what it is right now we will need to take some of these alerts far more seriously and be prepared for real at some point! I want you all to understand full well that this is not the time to be relaxing and drinking expensive wine. . . it is the time to start being prepared for the next major California Earthquake!

2 Small Earthquakes Strike Heart of Los Angeles!!!
I am concerned that there were two small earthquakes that just struck in a heavily populated area of downtown Los Angeles that might also be an area that is overdue to be the epicenter of a Major Earthquake. The first of these two was 1.7 Richters Near San Gabriel, California. San Gabriel is like the name or location of old downtown Los Angeles and still the location of the mission there. This epicenter is just 2 miles from Rosemead, 2 miles from Monterey Park, and another mile or so north of Montebello. The second of these two earthquakes struck 1 mile from Monterey Park, 2 miles from Rosemead, and 2 miles north of Montebello at 1.1 Richters. All of the years that I have watched the Los Angeles area there have not been any epicenters in this neighborhood where millions of folks call their home. These epicenters are right at the heart of an area of Los Angeles that might not have been touched by an earthquake in a very long time and I would not be going into these details if not for the fact that we are expecting a 7.9 Richters earthquake to strike that part of California before the end of November 2012. There have been at least two other notable similar EQ Alerts for this region that have been exact hits albeit smaller than the predicted magnitude. Those were a 4.2 that struck Oakland on July 20, 2007 very near the exact date I had discussed and almost at the exact spot, and 2011 when a major earthquake was headed for Northern California and Southern Oregon and I actually caught a flight to Frisco and was there the exact night it struck Coos Bay, Oregon on October 12, 2012. The question occurred to me as to what should be done with the fact that there probably will be at least somewhat of an earthquake, and it looks like we know this ahead of time so what do we do? When asked this I only am able to right off hand tell people to be prepared, but the map makes it look like there are thousands of homes right at the epicenters of those two earlier today small shakers. . . what if a big earthquake strikes those epicenters? Other than sending out my EQ Alerts and as needed my Official Predictions I do not know what else I should do. With that L’Aquila verdict now it seems even more serious as to what action anybody should take here. EQ Guy

NEW MOON AND POSSIBLE ECLIPSE FOR NOVEMBER 13, 2012!!! Big Alert!!!???
First I must go over the two existing major Earthquake Alerts and Official Predictions that we are presently watching. They are Richmond, New York, Ottawa, Canada and Indonesia, etc. noting that Myanmar has been getting a lot of shakers over in that region right this moment. The other major one is for Lompoc, California with that earthquake energy crossing Ohio, Illinois, and Missouri, etc. right this moment. There is just a slightly higher chance that something major could shake on November 13, 2012 since all of this stuff is happening right this moment and now the New Moon occurs right in the middle of it on Tuesday Night this week. Of course we will also have to watch those existing shakers and aftershocks going on at Queen Charlotte Island and Guatemala for yet some more major shaking perhaps added to by higher tides or whatever a New Moon might do there. All of these alerts will continue on past the New Moon in the event that Tuesday does not produce any higher amount of earthquakes. Lompoc, California and that very shaky region should continue on under intense major earthquake watch all the way up to the end of November of 2012 because the possibility they may be getting as big as 7.9 Richters earthquake will remain out there. The Richmond alert only runs a few more days like to November 16 and then moves on to points north and far beyond. California has a far greater chance of becoming a real major earthquake event and rather soon, too!!! Whether anything will occur with the New Moon is unknown. Be Prepared!!! Thank-You for reading!!!

OFFICIAL PREDICTION FOR A MAJOR EARTHQUAKE TO STRIKE LOMPOC, CALIFORNIA BEFORE NOVEMBER 26, 2012
On the day of the Northridge Earthquake of January 17, 1994, I immediately began to research all of the things that might have had something to do with that major earthquake. The first thing that I discovered was that in the days prior to the Northridge Earthquake the entire country had been experiencing severe winter conditions. These consisted of sub-zero temperatures, two feet of snow all across the country, and fifty-five mile per hour winds as well as four feet of snow in the Sierra Mountains. I thought it believable that the combination of all these things could possibly have affected the North American Tectonic Plate in such a manner so as to cause some sort of breakage or shaking out at the tectonic plate boundary on our West Coast and so I continued on in my research.
I next headed to my local library with the names of a few different historical earthquakes to see what all preceded them and discovered something completely different all together. I discovered that the vast majority of major earthquakes were actually not preceded by severe winter conditions, which I deemed could affect the movement of the tectonic plates, rather most of the remaining earthquakes that I researched on that day had been preceded by the landfall of a major hurricane or typhoon. I didn’t have to think about it a real long time to be convinced that the tectonic plates were being moved by all of these different things with the result of that movement being major earthquakes.
I continued on in my research, everyday adding a few different major earthquakes and sometimes even researching a major hurricane from throughout history just to see if it would actually be followed by a major earthquake at some point. It wasn’t too far along in this research that this process quickly became streamlined into just a few moments on a microfilm machine and my research for the day was quickly all completed. Sometimes as fast as about five minutes is all it would take me to pull out a roll of microfilm when I knew the date of a major earthquake or hurricane from looking it up in a brick and mortar encyclopedia. . . until I would find either a hurricane followed by an earthquake, or a major earthquake that had been preceded by a hurricane or typhoon making landfall. Of course a few still came up as “January Earthquakes” and had been preceded by severe winter conditions, exactly as the Northridge Earthquake where all this started.
Later in 1994 a major hurricane named Hurricane John actually made landfall, or passed within 16 miles rather, of Johnston Atoll on August 25, 1994 and I began to write out my “EQ Alerts” and send them by U.S. Mail to my friends that I had worked with in the Motion Picture Business that had addresses in California and the Los Angeles area. Just 7 days later on September 1, 1994 there was around a 7.1 Richters earthquake that struck up around Northern California at Cape Mendocino. That was the year 1994 and I have been employing this system that I today like to call my “Precision Plate Tectonics Theory” ever since, frequently being as correct and accurate as I was in those days immediately following the Northridge Earthquake of January 17, 1994.
Today I am writing to discuss the landfall of yet another major hurricane. This one is Hurricane Sandy that made landfall at the East Coast of the United States around New Jersey, and New York on October 29, 2012 with winds that had been reported as high as 120 mph while bearing just North of due West. Additionally there were just two earthquakes that have struck that immediate region of Hurricane Sandys landfall, those being a 2.0 Richters Earthquake in New Jersey, and a 2.0 Richters Earthquake in Connecticut on November 4, 2012 and November 5, 2012 respectively. While the usual use of the Richter Scale is as a nominal numbering system more commonly referred to as “2.0 on the Richter Scale,” I have modified my use of the Richter Scale to name the individual increments after the founder of the scale or “Richters.” This is a sort of naming method similar to such other scales named after Volt, Watt, Amp, Henry, and Etc. Hereinafter I may refer to the individual steps in the widely recognized Richter Scale. . . as 1 Richter, 2 Richters, 3 Richters or 4, etc. I think the naming of those steps in this manner is yet another advance that goes well with all these other great advances going on these days.
SUMMATION OF PRIOR GREAT EQ ALERTS AND RESULTING EARTHQUAKES
In the now many years since I have employed my theories and wrote out my “EQ Alerts” I have had many good and great ones that have been very accurate. The landfall of Hurricane Hugo was on September 21, 1989 and the World Series/Loma Prieta Earthquake then struck on October 17, 1989 on Day 26 after that landfall. Day 26 after the landfall of Hurricane Sandy at New Jersey will fall on November 24, 2012 and I might expect this Brand New Upcoming Major Earthquake, which could well be the next big California Earthquake, to strike at between 7 and 7.9 Richters before that day, or by the end of November 2012. Thereby saying it should take about the same amount of time for the energy from Hurricane Sandy to cross North America as it took for similar earthquake energy to cross North America in the days following the landfall of Hurricane Hugo.
Other such huge windstorms that I have also tracked that became huge major earthquakes are Cyclone Nargis at Myanmar/Great Sichuan China Earthquake, Hurricane Katrina/Great Islamabad Earthquake, and Super Typhoon Nanmadol/Great Sumatra Earthquake of 2004. Each of those were big windstorms that had major landfalls where the resultant earthquake energy lead directly to the epicenter of a major earthquake just a few days later. Similarly the landfall of Tropical Cyclone Yasi at Queensland, Australia on February 3, 2011 preceded both the Great Christchurch Earthquake of February 22, 2011 and Great Honshu Japan Earthquakes of March 11, 2011 although in the case of the Japan earthquake it appears to have dealt more with basic tectonic plate movement than my usual straight line theory. Christchurch is situated directly in the wake of the line of energy that would have been created by Tropical Cyclone Yasi. Ironically I have a great Twitter message or “Tweet” as well as an EQ Blog entry that you can still view containing the name of the town Christchurch in the headline. Those are at www.earthquakealert.blogspot.com and www.twitter.com/eqalert where you can scroll back to them dates and view those entries.
In addition to the name of the town of Lompoc, California which has had at least one major historical earthquake in 1927, and could be in for another, I want to give a few other town names that might also become the epicenter of this Next Big California Earthquake! Those town names are as follows: Santa Barbara, Santa Maria, Orcutt, Arroyo Grande, Paso Robles, Goleta, Santa Barbara Channel, Ojai, Santa Paula, Fillmore, Tehachapi, Bakersfield, Lake Isabella, Arvin, Mettler, Coalinga, King City, Carmel, Carmel Valley, Hollister, Gilroy, Morgan Hill, Hayward, Daly City, San Francisco, South Lake Tahoe, Mammoth Mountain, Bishop, Owens Lake, Ridgecrest, Lone Pine, Shafter, Wasco, Avenal, Lake Nacimiento, Mono City, Big Pine, Independence, Olancha, Coso Junction, Indian Wells, Boron, Trona, Argus, Panamint Valley, Panamint Springs, Dolomite, Stove Pipe Wells, Death Valley Junction, Los Angeles, Landers, Hector Mines, Acton, Littlerock, Pearblossom, Wrightwood, High Desert, and Ludlow, California. Also Goldfield, Bonnie Claire, Las Vegas, and Incline Village in Nevada. This list of towns is meant to illustrate the general region where this earthquake will most likely strike and while you will surely say that it is all inclusive, it merely only gives the names of towns that are WITHIN the exact line of earthquake energy that is traveling across the United States from New Jersey in accordance with my “Go Straight Theory,” where I track such energy by following a straight line normally with the use of a globe since maps do not inherently have the same spherical abilities.
Finally I think I will try to avoid attaching my “Curriculum Vitae” today by adding that I do not have a degree in Seismology, but rather consider myself a very good Amateur Seismologist with a basic degree from an Apprenticeship with the United Brotherhood of Carpenters. I went on to work in acting and recently obtained my Screen Actors Guild card and am presently very busy with a lot of Film Production and Television Production work in the Chicago area. Due to the fact that Major Earthquakes such as this upcoming one could always have an effect on my friends in Hollywood, I began this work on when the next major earthquake might strike and where in order to attempt to provide some advance notice to all my West Coast Friends. I have been very successful at this, too, and now routinely enjoy filing copies of these writings with the National and California Earthquake Prediction Councils to make them “Official.”
Thank-You for accepting all of my earthquake writings and be watching for this major earthquake which probably WILL NOT miss the California Region discussed herein.

I next headed to my local library with the names of a few different historical earthquakes to see what all preceded them and discovered something completely different all together. I discovered that the vast majority of major earthquakes were actually not preceded by severe winter conditions, which I deemed could affect the movement of the tectonic plates, rather most of the remaining earthquakes that I researched on that day had been preceded by the landfall of a major hurricane or typhoon. I didn’t have to think about it a real long time to be convinced that the tectonic plates were being moved by all of these different things with the result of that movement being major earthquakes.
I continued on in my research, everyday adding a few different major earthquakes and sometimes even researching a major hurricane from throughout history just to see if it would actually be followed by a major earthquake at some point. It wasn’t too far along in this research that this process quickly became streamlined into just a few moments on a microfilm machine and my research for the day was quickly all completed. Sometimes as fast as about five minutes is all it would take me to pull out a roll of microfilm when I knew the date of a major earthquake or hurricane from looking it up in a brick and mortar encyclopedia. . . until I would find either a hurricane followed by an earthquake, or a major earthquake that had been preceded by a hurricane or typhoon making landfall. Of course a few still came up as “January Earthquakes” and had been preceded by severe winter conditions, exactly as the Northridge Earthquake where all this started.
Later in 1994 a major hurricane named Hurricane John actually made landfall, or passed within 16 miles rather, of Johnston Atoll on August 25, 1994 and I began to write out my “EQ Alerts” and send them by U.S. Mail to my friends that I had worked with in the Motion Picture Business that had addresses in California and the Los Angeles area. Just 7 days later on September 1, 1994 there was around a 7.1 Richters earthquake that struck up around Northern California at Cape Mendocino. That was the year 1994 and I have been employing this system that I today like to call my “Precision Plate Tectonics Theory” ever since, frequently being as correct and accurate as I was in those days immediately following the Northridge Earthquake of January 17, 1994.

Major Earthquake Alert: California!!!!! Here's Those Towns!!!
Here is the list of towns that could become the Epicenter of this 7-7.9 Richters Earthquake probably before the end of November 2012: Lompoc, Santa Barbara, Santa Maria, Orcutt, Arroyo Grande, Paso Robles, Goleta, Santa Barbara Channel, Ojai, Santa Paula, Filmore, Tehachapi, Bakersfield, Lake Isabella, Arvin, Coalinga, King City, Carmel, Carmel Valley, Holister, Gilroy, Morgan Hill, Hayward, Daly City, San Francisco, South Lake Tahoe, Mammoth Mountain, Bishop, Owens Lake, Ridge Crest, Lone Pine, Shafter, Wasco, Avenal, Lake Nacimiento, Mono City, Big Pine, Independence, Olancha, Coso Junction, Indian Wells, Boron, Trona, Argus, Panamint Valley, Panaming Springs, Dolomite, Stovepipe Wells, Death Valley Junction, Los Angeles, Landers, Hector Mines, Acton, Little Rock, Pearblossom, Wrightwood, High Desert, and Ludlow, California. Also, Goldfield, Bonnie Claire, Las Vegas, and Incline Village, Nevada. Some of those towns are not agreeing with spell-check right now, but I will clean the list up in the coming days and hours. Those are the towns and some of you might recognize the general region where this next Major Earthquake might strike. It DOES look like it is coming and there were just two of what I call foreshocks at New Jersey, and Connecticut in the last 24 hours at 2.0 Richters or so. If you follow regularly, you know I like to watch for the initial shock to produce a small earthquake. . . this one has just produced at least TWO so far! Keep checking here for more updates and Be Prepared California!!!!! This one could strike!!! EQ Guy

New Very Big EQ Alert: Lompoc, Los Olivos, Santa Ynez!!!!!
This is now a Very Big EQ Alert and it will include several towns NORTH of Santa Barbara starting at Lompoc which actually looks like it might be very close to the actual epicenter but keep in mind that there are any number of other towns right in the general area around Lompoc such as Santa Ynez and Los Olivos and stretching out towards Bakersfield and Tehachapi. The line travels north from there towards San Francisco but does not actually make it all the way to that city however there are a good many towns in between that I will update the list of later this week. I am giving the Magnitude at 7, but am sorry to say it could go as high as 7.9 Richters and so I might give a range of 6.5 to 7.9, but today mostly want to just update everybody that there is probably a New Official Prediction coming very soon! Start watching immediately and this new earthquake energy will also have to cross Ohio, Chicago, Illinois, St. Louis, and Oklahoma first. Be Prepared! EQ Guy
