At Landers, five separately mapped faults gave way at once in a single rupture. On the larger scale, both the giant 2004 Sumatra and 2011 Tohoku quakes ruptured fault segments that no one expected to fail. As for our own San Andreas fault system, we've always taken it as a given that the so-called creeping section, which runs between San Juan Bautista and Parkfield, separates northern and southern California. We don't expect a rupture on either the north or south end of the fault to rip through the creeping section, because its degree of creepsteady motion without earthquakeswould seem to preclude the more wrenching motion of a proper earthquake.

In fact, that supposedly low-strain creeping section could release quite a lot of energy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The authors suggested that creeping might be a temporary state between the relaxed state right after a quake (no energy) and the \"stuck\" state that most earthquake faults are in (lots of energy). \"Temporary\" in this case means centuries.

We know about it from personal experience and, farther back, from history. The government works against this threat in the sensible ways: building codes, zoning ordinances, scientific research, insurance mandates.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The rest of us have folkways organized around our local hazard. \"Drop, cover and hold on\" is a good one that we teach all of our kids. \"Stand in a doorway\" has been officially phased outthat works only in a traditional adobe buildingbut it's nearly as stubborn as the old adobes themselves.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The folk notion of \"earthquake weather\" centers around a belief that hot, still weather foreshadows an earthquake. It seems to be rooted in our culture as deeply as the ancient Greeks. Science established long ago that earthquakes have no statistical relation to the weather. Yet just last week one of the smartest, most competent people I know said in an online exchange, \"I've been worrying about earthquakes since the period of extreme stillness started yesterday.\" \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I look around and wonder, too, when the weather gets weird. Something deeper is going on, something that I think we can't help doing. To talk about it I must turn to mythic, not scientific language. When the wind dies, the world is obviously holding its breath. What does the world await? The sky above is clear; there are no surface hazards nearby; it must be something below about to happen.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Scientists consider \"earthquake weather\" one of many misconceptions to be ruthlessly stamped out.
