Feels like earthquake weather

[Auggie]

Yeah, yeah ... I know it's myth. Sure is beautiful in NorCal today though. Just like October 17th, 1989.

1. I haven't heard the myth, please clue me in.

3. Okay

Wiki:

Earthquake weather is a type of weather popularly believed to precede earthquakes.

Since ancient times, the notion that weather can somehow foreshadow coming seismic activity has been the topic of much discussion and debate. Geologist Russell Robinson has described "earthquake weather" as one of the most common pseudoscientific methods of predicting earthquakes.

In northern California, that usually mean ideal conditions -- not too hot, cold, humid, windy, etc.

4. earthquake weather

warm day in the fall or spring... clear skies

however I do not believe there is any scientific data that backs this up

and we don't have enough major events to make any sort of statistical analysis

6. Thanks for your input.

I didn't think there would be scientific data.

Am I wrong: It wouldn't be called a myth if it were true and backed up by facts and data ???

7. It's quiet. Too quiet.

Of course earthquake weather is myth. Sure does feel like it though.

If the cat starts acting crazy then I'll really know.

8. hush, please

Only good, positive thoughts. And tomorrow will mark the start of our recovery from the nightmare of the last four years
We've had plenty of disasters here in the North Bay in the last few years, like to get most recent cleaned up before another comes. Besides, earthquake weather is usually warm, overcast and a little windy. Today was perfectly beautiful

9. 3rd day after a full moon..

Having lived twice in California has not given me this opinion but I have felt that I could expect an earthquake on the 3rd day after a full moon. Not anything scientific, just a feeling.

10. I've always thought of earthquake weather as a dramatic change in temperatures in a 24hr period

the idea being the same a boiling hot water shattering a cold glass
