New Earthquake Situation

in California and Washington

On June 29, 1999, I wrote Everyone Can Predict Earthquakes, and exhibited a series of satellite cloud images from 99062416.gif to 99062500.gif (no 99062417.gif). Now, I will show the earthquakes that relate to those earthquake clouds. If you are trying to make a prediction, you can check it with the following data: No.1 7/05 17:07 26.42N 110.28W 4.3ML No.2 7/11 18:20 35.73N 118.49W 4.3ML No.3 7/19 22:09 33.63N 116.72W 4.2ML All three clouds appear in the 99062423.gif On August 10, I wrote California Earthquake Situation Analysis, and pointed out that there were many earthquake clouds on July 21, 26, 27, and 28, but I could not find where those clouds came from. Now, earthquake data show where their hometowns were. No.4 8/01 16:06 37.39N 117.07W 5.6ML ---> The cloud on July 21 No.5 8/18 01:06 37.91N 122.69W 5.0ML ---> The cloud on July 26 No.6 8/24 13:04 31.96N 114.46W 4.7ML ---> The cloud on July 27 Many people saw the 5.6 earthquake cloud on July 21, and a lady saw the cloud on July 26, which means that it is not difficult to distinguish an earthquake cloud from a weather cloud. Three medium earthquakes occurred in different places implying that a big one will be delayed. A new situation appeared. On August 14, a warm ocean current emitted from Northern California coast, and so did another from Southern Chile coast on August 15. The latter caused a 6.3 earthquake at 40.42S, 74.82W on August 22. It might imply that a similar one would attack Northern California. That is why I have attempted to make a prediction, the only one without an earthquake cloud. One might asks me whether the 6.3 Chile earthquake had an earthquake cloud. I am not sure. On one hand, I did not find one from satellite images; on the other hand, a 6.3 earthquake cloud usually does not show on a hemisphere image. In addition, the time span equal or longer than three hours between two images is too long to decide whether or not an earthquake cloud appeared, and disappeared in the span. Although some examples, such as prediction No. 10, 18, and 28, prove that ocean earthquakes have earthquake clouds, they do not mean that all ocean earthquakes have their clouds, which is another reason why I take a big risk to make the prediction. If the prediction is correct, it may imply that for an ocean earthquake, a hole where the earthquake vapor erupts could be horizontal. In this case, the upward branch of an eruptive velocity is tiny, so all energy of vapor transforms into hot water. Otherwise, it reveals that there is no difference between ocean and land for geothermal energy release Another new situation is that I noticed two geothermal sources in the USA recently. One is from Portland where the USGS made an over due prediction, and the other is near Los Angeles where the USGS also made a prediction. I think that both predictions may have sense for the locations. Since I do not have a good weapon, I propose three satellite images to remind people of possible danger.
