Mine are all out now, except for some in Napa. So I’m good.
So should we be buying up potential ocean front property in Utah?
Interesting research to uncover the “ghost forests” and tie that to “orphan tsunami” records in Japan. That’s some good thinking.
I noted the statement “Sea levels can’t rise six or more feet in a year.” The author is obviously a “Denier” who hasn’t gotten with the program.
We can prevent this by government confiscation of wealth, labor, and property, the burning of Bibles, abolition of meat, and pumping water slowly out of the ground.
No worries. Higher taxes should take care of that problem. That and complete iron fisted control of people.
Dang. Just when CA residents moved there to escape “The Big One.”
Those precautions should be worth a lot when an earthquake a THOUSAND times larger hits. :)
Just prepare to be..wait for it...
DEAD!

Paging Irwin Allen...
Here’s the executive summary. On a date and time unknown, but at some point in the future, everything west of the I-5 corridor is going to be obliterated. At which point, California, Oregon and Washington will become Republican states.
Note: FR is in California.
“...personal firearms and ammunition for keeping the numerous surviving ferals...”
There will be a lot of bodies from natural and unnatural causes. Shoveling won’t be enough. We’ll need a better way.
“Washington has had more earthquakes recently, so they’re better prepared.”, from the article.
The last “major quake” we had was centered near Olympia, WA about 40 miles away from us on February 28, 2001. It was a 6.8 and shook the house for quite a while. It did cause some damage to some structures in the area. It is a little hard to believe that even “earthquake proof” structures more than a story or two high would still be standing after a quake more than a thousand times more intense.
Downtown Seattle and many other low lying highly populated areas are built on top of soil that is prone to liquefaction when shaken violently, so they likely would be completely devastated. Yet our local politicians are playing this slight of hand trick with the global warming scam.
Of note:
A big tsunami will back up the Columbia, flooding all of Portland, out to the coast. And Seattle, especially West Seattle would flood due to the surge up the strait of Juan de Fuca.
Much of the Oregon and Washington coast is low, a dozen or so feet above sea level.
There’d be some real hell up there, no doubt.
Dreaded? Nah, try anticipated.
I still have a few friends living at La Quinta but maybe they will be out of Kalifornicator when the big one hits.
If not, collateral damage for the greater good.S/Off/On/Off/On.
“Oregon had recorded no earthquakes since American pioneers colonized the territory in the nineteenth century, and the native population had no written records, but the earth itself keeps copious records of geologic events, once one knows where to look”
I graduated in 2002 from the Oregon Institute of Technology in Klamath Falls and I find this statement hard to believe. The rocky cliffs along Agency Lake north of Kfalls provide plenty of evidence of up thrusting. We studied these in my Geology class.
Also while I was there we had a 5.7 quake come rolling through one afternoon. Before that I had experienced a couple 4.0 + while living in Seattle in the late 90’s
karma...for all the horrid Oregon commie politics
We’ve got a few ghost trees at a local beach. Them, and the warped strata from events of 44 million years ago, and the deposits on top of them let you know that this too, shall pass.
