You can't actually SEE an earthquake. You can feel it. The feeling of it and the destruction all depends on the magnitude (power) of the earthquake. Seismologists (people who study earthquakes) rate it on a scale from 1-10. 1 is the weakest; you can barely feel anything. 10 can cause buildings to crumble in the blink of an eye. 10 can kill many people and cause many issues for the area that gets hit with this.
Take the Japan incident for example. The latest results say that it was an 8.9 magnitude. It caused one of the worst tsunamis in history and destroyed most of Japan.

What is the predicted?
The earthquake predictions depend on everyday life because the tectonic plates move a few micrometres each day. where two tectonic plates meet is called a convergent boundary and this causes an earthquake but look online and if you live in New Zealand by any chance the likelyhood of an earthquake is reasonably high.

How do they use seismometers to locate the origin of the earthquake?
You can think of this in the same way that satellites work to find your location for the GPS in your car. An earthquake happens and it is picked up on 3+ seismometers. These seismometers measure the waves that the earthquake produced and the velocity at which they are traveling and you look at where all the seismometer calculations run together. You have the epicenter of your earthquake.
