Hi OP, I live in No. cal, in Chico, I watch Cali. All the time. I had to go to Monterey Bay last weekend, and I just had BAD feelings about quakes there, could not wait to leave. I saw no fish in the ocean, and the pelicans and seals that usually hang around were in short supply, too. I think we are in for a big one soon. I have never had the ear ringing thing happen- in all the quakes I have been in. But, I have gotten dizzy before quakes. I will keep watch with you. Thanks!
