∙ 11y agoYou can predict when an earthquake can happen by listening to the news. It might be boring but tune in once a while and check the weather. if you know its happening you should fled or evaluate with friends and family. Staying there might be the worst thing you can do............................................thats like killing yourself!
Hope this helped answer your question.

Can geologists predict exactly where an earthquake will occur?
No.
Why is it easier to predict where an earthquake epicenter will occur than it is to predict when it will occur?
I think you mean when. Earthquakes are made by two plates in the ground moving against each other. Its it to predict where because if you are near a plate boundaries (where two plates meet) then it is more likely for an earthquake to occur.
Why do not any of you know the answer for what time eartquakes occur?
About 300 or so measurable earthquakes occur around the world each day. So far, it is not possible to predict the time when an earthquake will occur. The best scientists can do is predict the frequency (once in how many years) an earthquake of a specific intensity will occur on a given fault line.
When could the next large earthquake occur on the san Andreas fault?
Around 30 years is what scientists predict
Can scientist predict earthquakes?
Earthquake prediction is currently not possible, as such, seismologists will attempt to quantify the risk posed by a particular fault zone rather than state exactly when an earthquake will occur. For more information, please see the related question.
When is the next England earthquake?
It is impossible to predict when an earthquake will occur.
Can geologists predict exactly where an earthquake will occur?
No.
What is a person who tries to predict when and where an earthquake will occur?
A volcanologist
What can help predict when a volcano or earthquake will occur?
one way to predict when a volcano will occur is with the technology scientist use to determine when and where an eruption will occur.
Can you compare the strength and frequency method for predicting earthquakes?
The Strength and Frequency Method only predicts how often an earthquake of a particular magnitude will occur. The Gap Hypothesis only predicts where another earthquake is most likely to occur along a fault line. Neither method will predict where the next earthquake will occur in the world, or predict an earthquake happening in a random spot, or predict both the location and strength of an earthquake.
Why can scientists accurately predict where an earthquake will occur?
Because the fault line will act up and that is a warning sign of a earthquake.

Why can scientists not accurately predict where an earthquake will occur?
They cannot determine which point along a fault has the most pressure.
