There is always a chance for quakes in areas with active faults, but specific forecasts perform no better than random when tested. https://www.usgs.gov/faqs/can-you-predict-earthquakes https://pnsn.org/outreach/faq/earthquake-prediction https://scienceexchange.caltech.edu/topics/earthquakes/earthquakes-probabilities https://www.usgs.gov/faqs/do-solar-flares-or-magnetic-storms-space-weather-cause-earthquakes https://www.usgs.gov/faqs/there-earthquake-weather https://www.usgs.gov/faqs/are-earthquakes-associated-variations-geomagnetic-field https://www.npr.org/2023/02/07/1154893886/earthquake-prediction-turkey-usgs
