I predict several aftershocks.
Is that what you wanted to hear?

That's easy, based on observation of many previous events.
Major earthquakes always have aftershocks, sometimes large.
And the aftershocks always fade away. But for those affected
directly by the earthquake, it's a scary experience.

It's scarey because you can never be quite sure the big one you
just had wasn't actually a foreshock for a BIG ONE.
