Title: Big Quake Coming to NW US?
Post by: LongBlade on December 06, 2014, 07:27:33 PM
The subduction zone offshore of the US Northwest has become stuck.

QuoteToomey said a big unknown is how much strain has accumulated since the plate boundary seized up, and secondly, how much more strain can build up before the fault rips and unleashes a possible magnitude-9.0 megaquake and tsunami.

Toomey described himself as "very concerned" and said it is "imperative" people in the Northwest continue to prepare for a big earthquake.
