USGS Real Time Forecasts

pasadena.wr.usgs.gov...

I thought this was pretty interesting. The USGS is putting an earthquake forecast for California online. Of course Parkfield is one of the hotspots. Not that I really want to see California get hit by a quake necessarily, but it would be interesting to see exactly how accurate this might be. Of course they're just dealing with probabilities that a quake might hit and not necessarily the size or the exact location, but it's still pretty neat.

Now the trick is to remember to check it out everyday to see if it changes --- I wish there were a bit more difference in the colors -- I can't see the subtle changes -- all the greens look green to me until they turn another color for example.

Very neat stuff thanks for the post

Did you try the click to enlarge feature? I had the same color issue but it is much easier to see when the map is zoomed in
Although, CA is lucky there isn't much varaition at the moment.

Thanks DTOM that does help -- never thought to try that.

You should see me trying to separate black and blue socks -- finally gave up and just put them in the drawer and DH can sort them out like I said I said -- I have trouble with colors
