Have to admit I never heard that one before. Googled it and there'
squite a list of descriptions of "Earthquake Weather"!

"Folklore reserves the term "earthquake weather" for the sultry,
ominously uneasy period said to precede large earthquakes."

Neato!!

Umm  that'd be the New Madrid quake, I guess. Unfortunately,
geologists and meteorologists agree that any connection between what
happens in the atmosphere and what happens in the earth's crust, it is
an absolute unknown.
