This will be an exciting year for quakecast followers. First, the name is in process of being trademarked. I'll keep you posted if the US Government approves the request. Second, I hope to add other features to the blog including maps of high warning areas.
In the meantime, I'll be watching and quakecasting around the globe and especially California.
World: 183
Calif: 338
Predictor Performance in last 24 hours: None -- I was on vacation
World Reality
The world number never went up over 200 on my entire vacation. This is very unusual. I think I need to track the world number. I know it is typically over 200. With the world number low, there was a 6.8 quake in Japan. It got no news in the US. Also, last week there were 6 earthquakes in the middle east. Remember, I said we'd see activity start up there. No 6's but still it went from very quiet to slightly active.
California Reality
There was a three in the Geyers, CA. and lots of twos.
World Forecast
I have to get readjusted. It's been two weeks so please consider that I may be rusted with this quakecast. The world number will drop in the next 24 hours. There has been very few aftershocks since yesterday. I am not sure when the quakes happened, because I was away but it should go down. This increases the risk of a 6 or a 7. Based on location of the 6.8 and other 5+ breakouts, I'd watch Indonesia for a larger quake.
California Forecast
I am only going to make a 24 hour quakecast because I've been out of it for a while. There will be no 4+ in the next 24 hours. There will be more 2's and a three. Watch the San Francisco area for the 3+.
