How can you predict hurricanes and not earthquakes?

Hurricanes take days to develop and travel to a given location. The precursors to hurricanes can be easily spotted by satellites The conditions that lead up to and influence hurricanes, such as humidity and sea surface temperatures. By contrast an earthquake usually strikes in a matter of seconds. They usually occur several miles beneath the surface, where many factors cannot be measured, and finally there are no known precursors to earthquakes that can be used in accurate predictions.
