    It is a hoax and earthquake warnings are listed as percent probabilities, with estimated magnitude ranges, and usually over a much longer period of time.

    Nobody can exactly forecast an earthquake.

    PHIVOLCS CLARIFICATION ON ALLEGED 6.8 MAGNITUDE EARTHQUAKE

    14 MAY 2008

    2:00 P.M.

    The Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology would like to inform the general public that the text message currently circulating in the Philippines about a prediction by a certain “US Geological Society” of a “magnitude 6.8 earthquake to hit Philippine Plates tonight”, purportedly issued by the “Hawaii State Emergency Preparedness Office” IS A HOAX. This hoax started the day after the Magnitude 7.9 China earthquake of May 12, 2008.

    I heard many people in the mall rumoring about this magnitude 6.8 earthquake then I also receive this text on my cellphone and my friends even called me! Others of my friends even send e-mail messages to me in my YM! I think it's true. It's better to be prepared than to spread this rumor and say that it's not true.

    No one has ever successfully predicted an earthquake. I hope they continue to be wrong because that would be a powerful quake!
