I live in the San Francisco area and I wonder why would a 5.2 earthquake in the New Madrid Fault be felt on the entire eastern part of the US compared to a 5.2 on the Hayward Fault. A 5.2 Quake on the Hayward Fault would be felt in Northern California . Also I keep hearing that a 7.1 quake would be more dangerous on the New Madrid Fault Compared to a 7.1 on the Hayward fault within a 20 year period. Why is that.

Tim asked:
There have recently been about 5 earthquakes in the area. Many of them were 3.0. The earthquakes occured all around California, mainly by the Hayward Fault. Does this indicate a major earthquake is about to come? When do you predict this will occur? Will it still happen in the Hayward Fault, although the small earthquakes occur in cities other than Hayward? What about the extremely cold climate in California? Should the government already do something to protect its citizens? What’s your take on this issue?
