I wouldn’t read to much into it. The quakes are an unpredictable thing and anything happening right now is just recency bias and media.

In San Francisco at the Cal Academy of Sciences(some of the research there is mainly quake related because of the founders), check out the planetarium.

They show a worldview of all quakes in real time and then do some filtering where they show 5+ and 7+ on the day and then do some expanding where it’s on the whole year.

These things happen. All. The. Time. You’re only hearing about the ones near people.

(They also have a fake house built on a shake table that simulates the 1906 and 1989 quakes and it’s insane. They only do 30 seconds of the 1906 one because it’s really terrifying.)
