I don't know if there is any logic behind this one...

But the pattern of 4 plus quakes down the Walker Lane area during the last week (near Barstow today) makes me wonder if a 4 plus quake will next appear in the Salton Sea Area in the next two weeks (between today 12/27) and January 15??

Not scientific, but what the hey!
Huh

Well, not quite Salton Sea, but what about the recent 4.4 in Devore?

But then, your window is still open for two more weeks.

True.  Close but no cigar!

4.5 today (January 6) near Banning.  The 4 pluses are moving south!  Still not quite precise enough to be the "Salton Sea Area" but I have another week.

I haven't seen this much increase in dilatomer in Southern California before. http://earthquake.usgs.gov/monitoring/de...?region=SC

There's been more rain in the past then now and didn't show an increase like that with timing of 4.5 near Banning. But could be.

OK...a miss.  The pattern of 4 plus quakes didn't get as far south as I thought.  Ah well!
