The Meers fault in the southwestern part of the state is big enough to see for much of its 16-mile length; it was relatively dormant for a few millennia, but then exploded about 1600 years ago into a quake estimated at magnitude 7.0. The worst quake to hit the state in recent years, though, wasn't along the Meers, but along a fault line running from El Reno to Kingfisher; it struck El Reno in 1952.
Russian Scientists are reporting today that the chances of a cataclysmic earthquake event occurring in the Americas has increased over 100 fold following the earthquake this week in the United States Oklahoma Region and which has shown the probability of the Meers Fault Line in that region awakening.

A 7.0 east of the panhandle and west of the Ozarks would be BIG as the quake and aftershock would liquify the soil and the shockwaves would fan out far afield
