I am just now finding this EQ:

MAP 4.4 2006/05/12 03:37:29 38.814N 122.814W 4.5 2 km ( 1 mi) NNW of The Geysers, CA

From years of observation, quakes at the Geysers seem to set off EQs in Southern California.

I finally made time to to calculate the future dates for the remaining PressuresI experienced years ago, but still believe them to be valid. As it turns out, the mother of all pressures, in its pain intensity, has been in critical for the last seven days and now two days remain in the window. With the weather manipulations over my area for the last four days, I'm thinking I'm not the only one wondering if this is the time. Meme is still inside and showly getting used to my critters. She has not shown overt signs that she wants to return to her outside life.

As if this wasn't enough to make one wonder about a quake, at 5:16 this afternoon, I heard a clear high frequency type tone in my right ear. Can't imagine this tone to be for the big one, but certainly a respectable EQ is possible.

Shoshana, it's been my experience that most people who sense EQs in advance pick up on their local area...unless the world quake to be is very large. It takes time and a log book to determine which is which. Nausea and headaches are common local signs.
