This is my own theory. I found the approach data, and then checked the long term earthquake data. It doesn't cause earthquakes every pass by earth, but it does on many. If the earths plates are stressed, Comet Honda can be the Trigger.
---------------------------------------------------
Other theory is that Honda could trigger a CME that would hit around New Years. It is now well documented by Suspicious0bservers that CMEs are present on EVERY large earthquake. Google it
Comet 45p-caused CME threat to nuke cooling next 10 days either side of 12-31 perihelion, and/or comet breakup, can be watched at https://theskylive.com/45p-info, and bpearthwatch.com. Nearest approach to earth 2-13-2017 also to be watched. CME when comet is between sun and earth would be earth-facing threat. Happy New Year.
Expect large earthquake (s) especially since there has been very unusual earthquake activity the last month. Even a 7.5 EQ could be a pre-shock, as opposed to a "stress relief".
Be Prepared, Not Scared
My original data had comet Honda in a super close approach Feb 2017, but newer data shows that brightest magnitude is right around Jan 1, 2017 and others were using this date for a fly by.
JPL shows Feb 17, 2017 for close approach, others show Feb 11, and Feb 14

Comet 'Honda'
Close approaches to planets: This comet made 11 close approaches
to Earth and 2 close approaches to Jupiter during the 20th century. It makes 1
close approach to Venus, 5 close approaches to Earth, and 1 close approach to
Jupiter during the first half of the 21st century. (From the orbital work of

An interesting "tablet" documents a 2193 BC prediction and subsequent documentation of a large comet impact, causing 300 years of cooling, and collapse of various civilizations.
Abstract
The K8538 is the world's first scientific
documentation on approach and terrestrial impact of a large comet on
Earth.
Observations were made on top of an astronomical tower, located 100 km
close to the impact site. The report is presented in form
of a sequence of eight pictures, explaining the comet's first
astronomical sighting, the appearance of comet tail and coma,
the growing comet size, the comet flight across the sky and finally, its
visible impact beyond the horizon, i.e. the impact
flash lighting of the sky and the subsequent elevation of ash plumes,
glowing beyond the horizon, spreading North and West.
The impact itself is not described as a blast pressure wave but rather
as an ash and dust tempest, rising out of mud sediments
from the Tigris and Euphrates river delta, where the hot comet found its
burial. The astronomical observer carried out
trigonometrical measurements to record the flight path in the sky,
flying distances and flying times.
The observer started
his measurements as soon as the comet showed its spectacular size, coma
and tail, which convinced the observer, that an
extraordinary celestial event was about to take place.
The K8538 is a
full comprehensive analysis of the comet event; its
eight-picture sequence is cohesive. The tablet is a masterly work,
explaining with as little text a maximum amount of impact
event features. The tablet is a late Babylonian copy of the early old
Sumerian original.
Written cuneiform signs of two zodiacal
constellations, Orion and Triangulum, are later Babylonian copy scribe
additions and were not part of the Sumerian original.
The K8538 tablet had high priority in Babylonian times, because it
provided the documented evidence that the comet emerged out
of the constellation Triangulum, Mul-Apin, onto which late Babylonian
astronomy and religion rested.
The tablet eyewitness
account shows Mul-Apin as celestial seat of Gods and celestial source of
destructive meteors on Earth. For this reason, the
K8538 was guarded, copied and refreshed over more than 1,500 years,
until the late Babylonian period, after the observed meteor
impact in 2,193 BC.
The tablet does not deal with any Babylonian
zodiacal astrology. The described cosmic impact on Earth is the
so-called 4.2 kyr event, shown in our other Holocene climate change
studies. The comet impact is responsible for a 300 year long
drop in global temperatures combined with lasting mega-droughts, which
led to the collapse of various ancient civilizations around the world.
