Is this yet another sign that we are entering a time of increased geological instability for the state of California?
For years, I have warned that it is just a matter of time before “the Big One” arrives, and the clock is ticking.
Meanwhile, hundreds of thousands of fish have been dying and washing up on shore in northern California…

From the article:
“For years, I have warned that it is just a matter of time before “the Big One” arrives, and the clock is ticking.”
Uhh. Me, too. Observing that coastal CA bluffs are unstable is about as profound as observing that it’s rainy in Seattle. Suggesting that this incident presages a period of coastal instability is silly. There’s no evidence of that. What, unfortunately, it may mean is that in the normal course of geologic history, the time has come for these bluffs to fail. And juxtaposing this with fish die offs, a meteor, and a hurricane is just silly. Just because the author inserts “meanwhile” in the text doesn’t mean that there is any connection at all between the events
NOTHING NEW. Decades ago, when I lived in Southern California (before moving into the Krembalin, according to the Zeepers here), Portuguese Bend was one of my ‘tourist spots’ when people visited me. Basically it was a land-glacier, where the state had to keep rebuilding the highway, due to it slipping down and breaking apart. In fact the state would be building a new, ‘upstream’ parallel highway path while people still drove the existing highway, as they knew that the existing highway’s days were numbered. Whether it was smart to spend money in that ‘sinkhole’ can be debated, but it was ALWAYS a huge problem.
Plus there is the horror of glaciers!! Moving at a little over three inches per century, there is NOTHING that can stop them, and they are certain to destroy EVERYTHING IN THEIR PATH.
If you read the geological studies, the way the caldera is formed now means that a worse case scenario is not an explosion but lava rivers being “squeezed” out of the ground, think of those meat grinders that make hamburger, it will still suck for the yellowstone park because these rivers of lava can cross across roads and right into buildings in the park
smh
This kind of movement signifies that the ‘big one’ is NOT looming.
Holy cow.
Yeah, thanks, my reply fit your asinine comment perfectly.
I did. And history.
It means that Yellowstone is a super volcano that's long overdue to explode and will take out two-thirds of the continent immediately while another 1 billion die worldwide from starvation and disease because of the abrupt change in global temperatures.
What is moving “a foot per week”?
That’d be 50 feet a year.
The length of a football field in six years.
What is this talking about?
The thing that I learned in geology courses was that things moved very slowly. Then once in a great while, they move fast. Everything eventually gets ground down to sand. Everything.
In geologic terms…100,000 years is a blink of the eye.
California is not the end of America’s dreams.
It’s been a nightmare for decades. A good ocean cleansing would help some.
Yellowstone is going to blow. I saw the movie.

Nice.
Too many illegals.
Its falling off and going to tip upside down. Hank told me so.
What is moving “a foot per week”?
Biden last I knew 🤣🤣🤣
That sounds sort of negative.
The homes along the north side of the drive are quite a ways back from the coast itself, as the higher land descends into a wide, lesser slope area between the homes and the actual coastline. Marineland of the Pacific used to be in that area before it closed decades ago. I would think Google Earth's 3D navigation function would make this clearer than I can describe it.
Wow, I used to live near there.
that rock has been shifting forever, see Portugese Bend by Trump golf course.

You should know that when posting a headline like this from a never-heard-of-before source, it is a good idea to ask yourself: “Have I read anything like this from a well known source?”
Just sayin
