“And let’s hope it NEVER let’s go again!”
LOL - it WILL happen again. The best you can hope for is not in your lifetime. Although the periodic nature of earthquakes shows it has a pretty good chance of occuring in the next 50 years.
Here in Seattle we are past due for a 9+ out in the Pacific. That WILL put a huge hurt on us, Portland, Vancouver, etc. But it won’t be as bad as WHEN the New Madrid lets loose again.
The geology in the Midwest and East allows the seismic waves to travel farther and with greater intensity. As seen by reports of felt motion all up and down the coast from a <6 magnitude quake.
