The middle of Northwest missouri (kc) would be on the smaller end of it right? The biggest impact, from what I understand would be southeast, south, and east?

The New Madrid Fault appears to be extremely old from the studies I’ve seen. Not saying there won’t be another quake but the area doesn’t seem active like the various zones in California.

Probably.
With KC being on a granite bedrock massive KC might not be hit too bad.
But remember, even a small one in KC could do major damage as nothing in KC is built to withstand an earthquake.

I live in S.E. Missouri, sixty miles from New Madrid. Not a good place to be in a major quake.)

How are you Kim?
