Can Earthquakes be forecast with accuracy? The USGS and our Halls of higher learning say with a forceful, NO!

This is false and I'll prove it.

Are earthquakes random? The USGS says with an forceful, YES!

This is false and I'll prove it.

Do earthquakes follow specific paths, like a River flows? The USGS says with a forceful, NO!

This is false and I'll prove it.

Do earthquakes follow the edge of the Craton? The USGS says with a forceful, NO!

This is false and I'll prove it.

When I forecast earthquakes to strike with a magnitude and location, I put what I call "A watch". This watch runs for tens days but in many cases I will reduce it to hours or just a few days. Why a ten day watch? What those of us researching earthquakes are trying to understand and have yet to crack, what causes energy to stall or slow down. We observe that the energy maintains its strength over long distances but have yet to understand why it takes more time to travel. The recent 8.0 earthquake in Chili caused other multiple earthquakes and with an accuracy of over 90% made forecast of where and how big earthquakes would be coming from the original energy of the 8.0 and in the case of forecasting Texas and Venezuela, Texas was on the tenth day while Venezuela the third day. If the "Why energy keeps its strength but stalls gets answered I would be able to forecast earthquakes with +/- a 95% accuracy.

This now brings me to current events.

There have been multiple Deep earthquakes in Indonesia, Russia, Fiji and South America. These deep earthquakes are where forecasting begins.. Over the next 24-48 hours I will be watching how the combined energy along with volcanic eruptions will be sending energy to the States.

Specific areas I will forecast is Washington, Oregon, California, Montana, Southern Idaho , Nevada, Utah, Texas, Colorado, Oklahoma, Ohio, Iowa, Tennessee and may add 1-2 more states.

I'm anticipating higher than normal emery from these events after the energy goes to Alaska and down the Juan D Fuca fault zone into the States.

I will repost as a "Forecast"
Until then if anyone has any questions?

There is no pressure building on the Madrid fault zone. As long pressure is released through the states that the fault line runs through Alabama, Arkansas, Illinois, Indiana,Kentucky, Mississippi, Missouri and Tennessee.
Faults that run through the middle of continents sometimes fade out or only have earthquakes every 10,000 years, with the last being in the early 1800's.
There are multiple fear mongers with PHD initials attached to their names that are i***ts to how earthquakes actually occur. They are stuck in false teachings our universities are still vomiting out and spout out false information as if they are experts in hopes of getting a name for themselves.
YouTube is full of OMG"The united states is going to split in half".
There is only one possible event that can rock the New Madrid fault and it is found in Scripture.

With that said, my concern is the Cascadia subduction with a high probability of erasing (scrubbing) everything west of Interstate I-5 (puget sound from the straights of Juan DE Fuca to Seattle /Tacoma /Hoods canal) Oregon to Northern California.
Also of concern is the over 2000 % increase in volcanic activities /explosions in just the last two and a half decades. Explosions that reach 40,000 and 50,000 feet are now common and an active ingredient in earthquakes. There are hot spots that show up on satellites in just the last two years "The Paradise fires", methane releases off the Oregon coast, the clear lake volcano and near the border of California and Mexico. Dormant volcanoes in America are being reclassified as active. There is nothing currently to suggest a major explosion. The swarms that we hear about at Yellowstone are a result of uplift in the magma chamber but absolutely nothing to suggest an explosion. If we begin to see larger swarms at double and triple the magnitude then I would begin to be concerned such as we having been seeing in Hawaii as magma is refilling the last year's collapsed chamber from last year's lava flows emptying the chamber, lowering or collapsing the dome and chamber 3000 feet that can be seen on Google Earth.
There is a direct connection in earthquakes and Volcanoes.
I only report volcanoes that effect the states and mostly its antipode effect that can drive a larger earthquake watch.
There will be volcanic activities in the states in areas other than the larger better know volcanoes.

Being able to forecast earthquakes is actually very simple once the basics are understood, it's a quick learn. I will not use technical terms because they complicate what is a very simple process to learn.
Ask questions and after a dozen or so post of forecast /updates one will understand a majority of how earthquakes work and can begin to do forecast, another dozen post should have an accuracy of 70+% asking different questions.

Anyone reading these updates /forecast ask questions if your interested in knowing where, when and how large an earthquake Wil hit, how a volcano on the opposite side of the world could result in a large earthquake in the states.

Helping to prepare for the inevitable,

Interesting read as always.

It is difficult to imagine how powerful a 9.0 earthquake would be. It's about 1000 times more powerful than a 7.0 and would have violent shaking for five to seven minutes. A 9.4 would be 4 times more powerful than a 9.0

How can we compare modern day 9.0 earthquakes to the Cascadia? We really don't have relative comparisons. We all have seen videos of the following tsunami carrying ships and houses accross the land like toys. The sea floor has an uplift of (vertical) over 30 feet and side (horizontal) over 150 feet. The Cascadia has a very different make up that is expected to have a potential of over 200 feet of uplift and side movement over 500 feet.
What is making this huge uplift possible is no smaller releases of energy that we see in other like subduction zones. Smaller quakes accross subduction zones generally release energy and are referred to as slow slip. While still building more than is being released in slow slip, slow slip reduce the total potential of massive uplifts. The San Andreas has its northern portion having slow slip quakes however the southern is more locked. With that said only about 35%of the total length of the fault will create majority of released energy when it does release, unlike the Cascadia that it's full 600+miles will suddenly release.
What that means, everything within 59-100 miles of the coastline will violently shake (depends of soil makeup) , proceeded by a tsunami of debatable height I'm hearing arguments for 200 feet, while others say as high as 500. Most of the coastline soil and 50 miles inland will liquify.
The question that remains unanswered... At what level will the Cascadia "mega quake" be? What lends me leaning towards the worse case scenario is that the USGS has not reported earthquakes in Oregon for several years. Since we know Oregon has earthquakes every day of the year, earthquakes haven't stopped, just the reporting of earthquakes has stopped. Earthquakes like a river flow from North (Alaska) to South (California) but in the case of earthquakes the USGS is claiming the river that runs from Washington dries up in Oregon but miraculously begins running full again at the California border. The next question that enters my mind. What is the motivation of the USGS to be silent about earthquakes in Oregon? While the question remains unanswered, Cascadia comes front and center to my mind.
