Independent "researchers" are sharing unfounded theories across social media, which have the potential to spread panic and confusionâand have even fooled legitimate government agencies.
@TheRealS0s [Â https://quakewatch.net/ ] provide a forecasting system similar to what is experienced with other weather forecasting. That is, we share a likelihood that an earthquake will happen, where, and when. We never say, âEarthquake at five, be alive!â Mostly, âIndications of an earthquake are 75% off the Oregon coast.â Better yet, we provide the steps that bring us to a conclusion. We donât want you to be afraid. We just want you to be ready, and if needed, alert.
