Outlook for Southern California

 The activity in Southern California has decreased significantly over the past day. I woke up to dead quiet out here. It could remain like this all day or it could suddenly start back up again later on. There should be a lot more going on within the next few weeks. It should start becoming more and more active with more frequent mag. 3s and 4s with a greater possibility for stronger events. This may also include the Ridgecrest area. More activity could rise again in the Eastern California Shear Zone and the Tehachapi Mountains within the next couple of weeks or sooner. At this point, it should not stay very quiet much longer here. More activity might start increasing again any day now. It could remain like this for another day or two, but it should start increasing again later on today or tomorrow. There is always a high chance of a magnitude 3+ anytime or day now here. It has become more active out here over the past year. We are only getting closer to when it becomes even more active with stronger earthquakes.
