That's concerning.
Do earthquakes bother you where you live now, Scrap?
Only somewhat.
The Cascadia fault which is off the coast of Oregon and part of the ring of fire, produces fairly predictable earthquakes that are very powerful and destructive. The interval for these earthquakes is between 300 to 450 years. the last one happened in the year 1700. That means that there will be another big one (8.5 or bigger) in the near future, if not in our lifetimes, then the lifetimes of generation Z.
Luckily for me, since we are several hundred miles inland, the most power we will feel is a 5.5. The coast, on the other hand is totally fucked. They will not only get an 8.5 or bigger, they will also get the giant tsunami that follows it.
The entire Pacific Northwest Coast is one giant ticking time bomb.
