The only earthquake that has ever been successfully predicted by foreshocks occurred on October 4, 1981, in the city of Haicheng, China. Scientists observed a series of foreshocks leading up to the main earthquake, which registered a magnitude of 7.3. This prediction allowed for the evacuation of residents, significantly reducing casualties. The event remains a significant case in the study of earthquake prediction.
Short term predictions of earthquake behaviour or even earthquake predictions in general have not occured yet. Many even question if earthquakes will ever be able to be predicted. Even the earthquakes that have supposedly been predicted correctly have controversy behind the method
No. There is no way of predicting earthquakes and it is unlikely that a method to do so will be developed in the near future.
there have been a lot in Hawaii and in the summer well if an earthquake or landslide is in the Southern Hemisphere the winter
There have been a few earthquakes felt in Minnesota, but many people have lived in the state their whole lives and never experienced an earthquake. The first earthquake was recorded in 1860. The largest earthquake was a Magnitude of 4.6 on July 8, 1975. The most recent earthquake in Minnesota was recorded on February 9, 1994.

You never know it may be possible.

Foreshock activity has been detected for about 40 % of all moderate to large earthquakes, and up to 70% for magnitude events >7.0. In one model of earthquake rupture, the process forms as a cascade of foreshocks, starting with a very small event that triggers a larger one, continuing until the main shock rupture is triggered.

Currently, no successful predictions of earthquakes have been made. Earthquakes are highly unpredictable and complex phenomena, making it challenging to accurately forecast when and where they will occur. Most efforts focus on early warning systems rather than precise prediction.

It is most likely to have just been caused randomly by the three plates that board Japan or the rather small Chinese earthquake a day prior to the Japanese Earthquake and Tsunami.
There were no reports of any earthquakes yesterday in Yuma, AZ. Earthquakes are not common in that region and are usually of low magnitude when they do occur. If you felt something, it could have been from a distant earthquake or some other source.
The earthquake has already been.
Yes. Earthquakes are a common occurrence in California, and some of the faults have been known to produce major earthquakes. It is inevitable that more major earthquakes will strike California in the future, but there is no way of knowing when or where they will be centered.
