The tornado that struck Moore, Oklahoma at the 3pm hour on May 20, 2013 was over one mile wide, with winds over 200 mph, and has now been rated at EF-5. There was a tornado very similar to this one that struck along the same exact line on May 2, 1999 that was followed by an earthquake of 5.0 that struck near Palm Springs, California on May 14, 1999 or Day 12 after the 1999 Moore, Oklahoma Tornado.
I am writing today due to the fact that there are now a few such correlations and it is my opinion that with this new major tornado strike, there may now be more seismic energy heading out towards about the same region of Southern California.
Between June 14 and June18 of 1992 there was a major tornado outbreak which ultimately consisted of 170 tornadoes according to the Wikipedia.org article titled “Mid-June 1992 tornado outbreak.” On Day 12 after that first day in the June 1992 series of tornadoes at 4:57 local time a 7.3 Richters earthquake struck California with the epicenter near the town of Landers, California.
This Official Prediction is related to the fact that both of the above events were major earthquakes that followed major tornadoes and therefore I submit to the California Earthquake Prediction Evaluation Council that there could be a similar major earthquake now following this major tornado at Moore, Oklahoma of May 20, 2013.
I have selected the range of possible magnitudes used in the banner headline to reflect the range from the two examples I used above. While it should probably be at least a 5 Magnitude such as followed that 1999 Moore, Oklahoma Tornado; it should not be much higher that the Landers Earthquake which followed an entire series of major tornadoes and had a magnitude of 7.3 on the Richter Scale.
I track such potential sources of seismic or earthquake energy in laymans terms, with the use of globes and maps. First finding the exact spot on the globe where in this case the tornado struck, and use a straight-line tool to delineate the exact path on the ground of the tornado. Next, I look in both directions and assuming this potential seismic energy will travel in a straight line I check to see where it might strike looking first for the shakiest of places that are the first cities and towns along this line. I sometimes also will employ maps of the regions where the line travels to because of not being familiar with say all the countries to the West, and South West of Algiers. Maps fill in all of the lesser known areas and occasionally give me very exact results.
The results that are of the utmost importance today consist of the fact that Washington, DC showed up on the globe! Philadelphia as well, telling me I should mention Richmond, VA since they tend to receive all the earthquakes up in that region, and while this Official Prediction could be construed to be in affect up that way, it was not my intentions when I set out to draft todays O.P. For the record the line also intersects with Hawaii, but regions beyond the boundaries of the North American Tectonic Plate will also go beyond the dates given in the above headline and further into June of 2013. In that case I reserve the right to continue this O.P. through June at a later date.
I came across an excellent illustration in picture format showing the lines of both the 1999 and 2013 Moore, Oklahoma Tornadoes but do not routinely attach pictures and so I will instead describe both lines as heading just slightly to the North of due East and only a mile or so south of Interstate 40 which actually travels virtually due West from almost that same point to Barstow, California and it is my opinion that the slight difference in degrees Westwardly is by a far out coincidence, also taken up somewhat in the curvature of the earth. . . Ultimately coming very close to actually meeting up once again just South of Los Angeles, California.
Therefore I want to state that this line of potential seismic energy intersects the counties of Los Angeles, San Bernardino, Riverside, Orange, Imperial, and San Diego at that point, and that according to my calculations they should get a Major Earthquake in the range of 5 to 7.3 on the Richter Scale before 11:59pm on June 3, 2013.
Obviously it is hardly an unreasonable bet that an earthquake will strike that region in the above stated time frame, but I should add that Iran also received a 6.2 on May 11, 1999 and it is not uncommon for all of the earthquake energy to be released in one Major Earthquake which in this case I do not have reason to suggest could be larger than the Landers Earthquake of 1992, but having not yet occurred agreeably it remains possible it could all be released near Los Angeles such as in the Landers Earthquake where a 6.5 also struck near Big Bear City, California 3 hours later.
Finally, the eruption of Mt. St. Helens in 1980 also followed a major tornado that destroyed half of Kalamazoo, Michigan. The tornado struck at 4:09pm on May 13, 1980 rated F-3, and the eruption struck at 8:32am on May 18, 1980 on Day 5 after the Kalamazoo Tornado. Wikipedia.org “1980 Eruption of Mt. St. Helens” and “1980 Kalamazoo Tornado.” If those dates could apply to that much further South Region then this upcoming Los Angeles Earthquake could strike as early as Friday, May 24, 2013 at 7:19pm or 8pm adjusted for the duration of that tornado. There is hardly any basis for such a calculation, though, it is mostly to demonstrate the much shorter time sequence than those other two and might possibly be shorter because of the nature of the bedrock in that Northern Region. Note the exact moment of the May 2013 Full Moon is May 25, 2013 at 4:27UTC or 9:27pm Pacific Time, and the entire 24 hour before and after window would include that day and time which I have calculated.
This Official Prediction is only for the new Seismic Energy heading directly for the region South of Los Angeles. During the course of much of the first two weeks of this O.P. there are other potential earthquakes that may strike other regions due to the landfall of Cyclone Mahasen at Bangladesh and another tornado that struck Granbury, Texas both late on May 15, 2013, but with that seismic energy heading elsewhere such as Sichuan, China, Tibet, Idaho, Seattle, and possibly California by June 28, 2013.
I submit to CEPEC and NEPEC today that I have had previous “EQ Alerts” in effect prior to the 2003 Paso Robles, 2004 Parkfield, 2005 Sumatra Earthquakes, an Official Prediction in effect during the January 9, 2010 Eureka Earthquake and January 12, 2010 Haiti Earthquakes, accurately tracked the Potential Earthquake Energy from the August 2005 landfall of Hurricane Katrina directly to the epicenter of the 2005 Islamabad Earthquake, and have many more lesser known alerts and other earthquake writings that have been very accurate over the years!
There are major earthquakes that will be happening here inside of the window I describe above and possibly the days just beyond and very likely for the Los Angeles Region. At some point in the future it is my hope that we might simply inform the public of such correlations and the possibility that earthquakes might follow.
Thank-You Again for accepting all of my earthquake writings and especially for taking the time to listen to my correlation of major tornadoes and major earthquakes.

EXHIBIT A-My Curriculum Vitae:
I attended school in my hometown in Wisconsin, and went on to receive my General Education Diploma from Blackhawk Tech in October 1981, later attending TV Actors Studio in Chicago where I received a diploma from their Commercials One and Two course in early 1989. Throughout the 1990’s I worked as a Background Actor in Chicago Film Production working my way up to Feature Roles and Bit Parts and joining the American Federation of Television and Radio Artists or AFTRA, as well as going on to begin an Apprenticeship with the United Brotherhood of Carpenters in 1996 and heading to Los Angeles in 1999 when work ran out in Wisconsin. There I moved my AFTRA card and worked for Central Casting at the studios out there as well as moved my apprenticeship to work with the Southern California Millwrights local #1607 on a number of jobs out there having also worked on a lot of movies and television productions during this time as well. My California Apprenticeship was actually an Indenturement approved through Sacramento and affiliated with Santa Ana College in Santa Ana, California where I still have transcripts on file, there. In January of 2003 I moved my carpenters union card back to Milwaukee by taking and passing their Journeymans Test and thereby completing my apprenticeship, albeit without going the graduation route.
Never married I currently reside at Moms house on Lake Koshkonong in Wisconsin where I watch Hurricanes, Typhoons, windstorms in general and earthquakes very closely on a daily basis and I write my EQ Blog, EQ Twitter, and EQ Guy Facebook among other earthquake writings and some Hollywood stuff, too! In August 2008 I was hired by Per-Mar Security in Madison, Wisconsin as an Event Security person for Wisconsin Badgers Football, Basketball, Hockey, Track Meets, and etc. and while Per-Mar does not have the Badgers contract this year I continue to be employed with them and go out on many other great assignments that I continue to enjoy!
There has also been a streak of Film Production in Chicago and so I have been doing a lot of acting in movies and TV Shows shooting in Chicago this year! Chicago Fire is one of my favorites where I worked right at the actual Chicago Fire Department station that is seen on TV and was also seen in a Close-Up with the 2 Paramedics at the Nursing Station recently, too. That Great TV Series on NBC was just recently renewed until next year, so it will be keeping me busy into the future, now. Perhaps the biggest part of my recent acting life was as a Mafioso on FOX-TV’s “Mob Doctor” where I played a Mobster at the funeral of the father of Grace the star of that show, although I did not seem to see that part air, and the show has been canceled. I just finished work on two other pilots and one titled "Betrayal" was recently green lighted by ABC-TV and hopefully will stay in Chicago!
Additionally, I recently received my Screen Actors Guild Card in the mail and now hope that will lead to me getting to do some real acting and parts that will lead to lots more work in TV and Motion Pictures! Then possibly out to Hollywood again in the future to do some more work in the Movie Business and more work with Earthquakes!!! Thank-You!!! LES
