And what exactly catastrophic event has happened? 7.4 EQ? Catastrophic? Seriously? Japan EQ is catastropic. 7.4 is major and this shit strike us all the time. Unless it is in the middle of LA 10 km depth this is a minor event. I went through some >7.0 EQs 150 miles from here and could not even sense it. And those who where 100 miles from it did not feel anything. 9.0 is 40 times more powerful then 7.4. It releases 230 times energy of 7.4. Do you feel the difference now? So the prediction is failed.
