According to the new computer programs, there is a "higher" probability of a larger magnitude earthquake in southern California. The study I read, and cannot seam to find now, mentioned the individual faults and the percent of chance for each fault having a large quake. The highest percent was somewhere around 20% for the san andreas fault that goes through Los Angeles.

It can and may happen, but there is no way to predict when something will fall or start to fail, it isn't like cloud formations or low pressure fronts. It probably just goes by seismic activity (underground vibrations) which come and go all the time everywhere in the world.
