If it starts shaking here the first thing I'm going to do before running is check the time. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 64178119 If it keeps shaking for 4 or 5 minutes I'll know that it was the Big One, a magnitude 9+. About ten years ago we had a community meeting which included geologists and first responders. We were told we could expect to be without public utilities for anywhere from 3 months to 3 years. I checked a shake map, and with a 9.0 Cascadia earthquake, it would be a 7.0 to 7.5 shake at my place. Thankfully they updated all the bridges in my area around 7 years ago, and I'm above the flood area when the dam breaks. With a 22 trillion dollar national debt, the US will be financially destroyed when the West Coast goes down. It won't be mostly from rebuilding cost, it will be from lost revenue. Also the aftershocks will last for months, and everybody will be scrambling to leave. We might also see some volcanoes pop-off. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 75708546 United States 12/06/2019 12:51 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Yellowstone's Supervolcano Gets a Lid In other words, the team needs to find an additional heat source. Leonard thinks this could come from the Juan de Fuca Ridge—a jagged volcanic seam where magma oozes up between spreading plates to create a new seafloor—in the Pacific Ocean. Although that’s almost 1,600 kilometers away from Yellowstone’s hotspot today, the ridge can easily affect the middle of the North American Plate. Because it lies just slightly west of the Cascadia subduction zone, the young seafloor is easily shoveled east beneath the North American Plate. So it is likely that some event, millions of years ago, spurred a lot of heat within the Juan de Fuca Plate, which was then shoveled underneath the North American Plate and swept along with that string of volcanic eruptions until it eventually helped form Yellowstone’s gaping caldera in the Rocky Mountains. Although scientists will continue to argue over Yellowstone’s murky origin, the model makes it clear that slabs are much more important than previously thought. “It's like smoke from a chimney that's getting swept up in some sort of windstorm,” Humphreys says. “But it's not this vigorous plume that just blasts through everything.” [link to www.scientificamerican.com (secure)] |

The crater, dubbed "The Sacajawea Impact Crater" is greater than 600 miles across, with the Western Rim being the ring of Volcanoes from Mt Rainier, Adams. and St. Helens in Washington state to Mt.
