The Cascadia fault line is 50 miles off the US coast and runs from Vancouver island down to northern California.

Skyscrapers built in Seattle before 1994 — prior to more stringent building regulations — would be liable to collapse and countless small coastal communities could be swept away due to flooding. Some 1,000 schools in Oregon are reportedly judged to have poor resistance to eruptions, but the refurbishment is not set to be completed until 2032.

A 7.7 magnitude earthquake hit Canada's Pacific coastal province of British Columbia late Saturday, setting off a small tsunami ahead hit the province. It was centered 123 miles south-southwest of Prince Rupert at a depth of 6.2 miles.

Things are happening now in the area. I'll pray for all those who are worried.
