The Internet has been buzzing with an article from The New Yorker that got picked up and reported by Fox News on an imminent, massive earthquake that threatens to take down the Pacific Northwest.
It seems that this mega-quake is about 75 years overdue – it has been striking the area for the last 10,000 years around every 240 years.
So it’s not a question of ‘if’, but ‘when’.
When it does strike it will take down everything west of Interstate 5, including Seattle, Tacoma, Portland, Eugene, Salem, Olympia – home to around seven million people.
The coming quake will register somewhere between 8.7- 9.2 and will create a gigantic, 100ft high tsunami that will also cause considerable destruction.

I know but the bigger catastrophic event is the supervolcaino under Yellowstone that I’d over due to blastoff
Leave it to the fb crowd to bring politics into a deadly serious situation
The Cascadia Subduction Zone directly feeds the Cascade volcanoes and an earthquake will likely trigger the eruption overdue on Rainier for hundreds of years.
And all the liberal comments .. hey I’m no liberal .. there are a lot of non liberals here belive it or not .. you shouldn’t wish for something like that just because of political c**p .. there are kids that live here .. let’s act like adults when commenting. .
They had a scientist on the Butte news the other day. He said within the next 50 years. Not going to worry about it.lol

That’s true! They don’t need an earthquake, Liberals destroyed all that already. Hurry up Eartquake! Wipe them out.
