Alaska Hit by 45 Significant Earthquakes Within 24 Hours - Coming Soon? This Is What Would Happen if a 9.0 Earthquake Hit the Cascadia Subduction Zone…

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.


Within the last 24 hours, 45 earthquakes of magnitude 2.5 or greater have struck Alaska, and 25 of them were of magnitude 4.0 or greater. The worst one had a magnitude of 6.2, but none of the earthquakes did much damage because none of them hit heavily populated areas. But the reason why all of this shaking is causing so much concern is because the “Ring of Fire” runs right along the southern Alaska coastline, and all of the earthquakes except for one were along the southern coast.

The Great Alaskan Earthquake 1964 – Magnitude 9.2 – Tsunami Affects, Recovery, People

https://www.facebook.com/newsprepper/videos/1916515701922186/


For a long time scientists have acknowledged that a major Cascadia subduction zone earthquake is way overdue, and when one finally strikes the devastation that we could see in the Pacific northwest is likely to be off the charts. In fact, some scientists believe that the coming Cascadia subduction zone earthquake could potentially be as high as magnitude 9.0…

That 9.0-magnitude quake could trigger a 500 mph wave and put 70,000 people in the “inundation zone” in serious risk. Depending on their location within that zone, Kathryn Schulz writes in her article, people will have between 10 and 30 minutes to evacuate.

If a giant earthquake along the Cascadia subduction zone ever did cause a tsunami of that size, the death and destruction would be unimaginable. Just consider what physicist Michio Kaku told CBS News about such an event…

“In Japan, they practice this. Children know exactly what to do, and there’s an early warning system that we don’t have in Seattle that we do have in Japan,” Kaku said. “There are building codes that are not being enforced. Realize that many buildings are just going to be toppled when this gigantic earthquake, a 9.0, and a tsunami hits the Seattle, Tacoma and Portland area.”

According to the FEMA director responsible for Oregon, Washington, Idaho and Alaska, the operating assumption is that “everything west of Interstate 5 will be toast.”

Further south, scientists are expecting “the Big One” to hit California at literally any time. The experts that have studied these things are warning that the 800-mile-long San Andreas fault “could unzip all at once”, and one recent study claims that a big enough earthquake “could plunge large parts of California into the sea almost instantly”…


The Big One may be overdue to hit California, but scientists near LA have found a new risk for the area during a major earthquake.

They claim that if a major tremor hits the area, it could plunge large parts of California into the sea almost instantly.

The discovery was made after studying the Newport-Inglewood fault, which has long been believed to be one of Southern California’s danger zones.

Let us certainly hope that nothing like that happens any time soon.

But without a doubt the crust of our planet is becoming increasingly unstable, and we are living at a time when the number of earthquakes just continues to rise.

Frank Hoogerbeets has issued an online “major earthquake warning” amid fears a “big one” is on its way, claiming it could also cause a tsunami.

SEISMIC DATA FOR THE REGION

Seismotectonics of Alaska

The Aleutian arc extends approximately 3,000 km from the Gulf of Alaska in the east to the Kamchatka Peninsula in the west. It marks the region where the Pacific plate subducts into the mantle beneath the North America plate. This subduction is responsible for the generation of the Aleutian Islands and the deep offshore Aleutian Trench.

The curvature of the arc results in a westward transition of relative plate motion from trench-normal (i.e., compressional) in the east to trench-parallel (i.e., translational) in the west, accompanied by westward variations in seismic activity, volcanism, and overriding plate composition. The Aleutian arc is generally divided into three regions: the western, central, and eastern Aleutians. Relative to a fixed North America plate, the Pacific plate is moving northwest at a rate that increases from roughly 60 mm/yr at the arc’s eastern edge to 76 mm/yr near its western terminus.

The eastern Aleutian arc extends from the Alaskan Peninsula in the east to the Fox Islands in the west. Motion along this section of the arc is characterized by arc-perpendicular convergence and Pacific plate subduction beneath thick continental lithosphere. This region exhibits intense volcanic activity and has a history of megathrust earthquakes.

This Is What Would Happen If A 9.0 Earthquake Hit The Cascadia Subduction Zone…

If you live in the Pacific Northwest, you have probably already heard of the Cascadia Subduction Zone. It is where the Juan de Fuca plate meets the North American plate, and it stretches approximately 700 miles from northern Vancouver Island all the way down to northern California. This subduction zone is capable of producing far more powerful earthquakes than the much more famous San Andreas fault in southern California, and scientists tell us that it is only a matter of time before another continent-killing earthquake hits this area. And when it does hit, it will be far worse than any other natural disaster that the United States has ever seen up to this point.

According to CNN, “the largest earthquake in the continental United States” took place along the Cascadia Subduction Zone on January 26th, 1700, and one of the reasons why it is considered to be far more dangerous than other west coast faults is because it is also capable of producing massive tsunamis…

The Cascadia can deliver a quake that’s many times stronger — plus a tsunami.

“Cascadia can make an earthquake almost 30 times more energetic than the San Andreas to start with, and then it generates a tsunami at the same time, which the side-by-side motion of the San Andreas can’t do,” said Chris Goldfinger, a professor of geophysics at Oregon State University.

The Cascadia is capable of delivering a 9.0-magnitude quake — an awesome show of force by Mother Nature.

What would a 9.0-magnitude quake that also produced a huge tsunami do to the highly populated northwest coast?

According to an article in the New Yorker, the head of the FEMA division that oversees Oregon, Washington, Idaho and Alaska says that “everything west of Interstate 5 will be toast”…

If the entire zone gives way at once, an event that seismologists call a full-margin rupture, the magnitude will be somewhere between 8.7 and 9.2. That’s the very big one.

…By the time the shaking has ceased and the tsunami has receded, the region will be unrecognizable. Kenneth Murphy, who directs FEMA’s Region X, the division responsible for Oregon, Washington, Idaho, and Alaska, says, “Our operating assumption is that everything west of Interstate 5 will be toast.”

In the Pacific Northwest, everything west of Interstate 5 covers some hundred and forty thousand square miles, including Seattle, Tacoma, Portland, Eugene, Salem (the capital city of Oregon), Olympia (the capital of Washington), and some seven million people.

Like I said earlier, it would be far worse than any natural disaster that we have ever experienced in the history of the United States up until now.

And it could happen at literally any moment. In fact, many scientists believe that we are way overdue for a continent-altering earthquake along the Cascadia Subduction Zone. Tension has been building up there for a very long time, and at some point that tension will be released.

A recent piece by Adam Rothstein gives us an idea of what the first few moments of such a quake might look like in the city of Portland, Oregon…

Cacophony swells from the city as if it is howling in response to the earth’s call: car alarms, shattering glass, the thudding of bricks popping out of building facades, humans screaming in fright, and far off, echoes of what sound like dumpsters clattering to the ground from the jaws of garbage trucks. It is the sound of shifting foundations and collapsing masonry, continuously, a roar increasing from every direction. It is the sound of the living surfaces that a city takes for granted becoming undone.

Since we have not experienced such an earthquake in any of our lifetimes, it is easy to assume that one will never happen.

But that is not what the scientists are telling us.

In fact, they insist that the odds of “a continent-rending earthquake” in the near future are actually quite good…

The Pacific Northwest is due for a continent-rending earthquake. Experts believe the odds of a Big One happening in the next half century are about one in three, the odds of a Very Big One roughly one in ten, and that, in either case, we are disastrously unprepared.

And let us not forget that the Cascadia Subduction Zone sits directly along the Ring of Fire, and the Ring of Fire has started to become much more active in recent years.

In addition, if the region starts to become more seismically active there is also a very real possibility that we could see a full-blown eruption of Mt. Rainier, which has been described as“the most dangerous mountain in America“.

Let us hope that we have as much time as possible before our nation has to deal with such calamities, but the cold, hard truth is that we are certainly not helping matters by acting so wickedly.

If we continue to do the same things that we have been doing, it is only a matter of time before the judgment of God comes to our land in a major way. We are killing millions of babies, harvesting their body parts and auctioning those body parts off to the highest bidder. To many Americans that may seem like “old news”, but I assure you that this is not “old news” to God.

I don’t think that it was any accident that the series of undercover Planned Parenthood videos that were released last year came out when they did. We were being shown our guilt and we were being given one last chance to repent.

There was a congressional hearing about this last Wednesday. The following comes from CNSNews.com…

“Have we reached a point in our society where there effectively is an Amazon.com for human parts, entire babies?”Rep. Diane Black (R-Tenn.) asked the witnesses at a special hearing on bioethics and fetal tissue on Wednesday.

Dr. Gerard Kevin Donovan, a pediatrician and bioethicist at Georgetown University, responded that the practice of using tissue from aborted babies for government-funded research “shocks my conscience and it should shock the conscience of the nation.”

Unfortunately, the buying and selling of harvested baby parts does not shock the conscience of our nation. In fact, most surveys show that an overwhelming percentage of the American people want to continue giving hundreds of millions of tax dollars to Planned Parenthood each year even though they have been doing this.

Since we have not responded to God’s calls to repent, all that is left is for Him to shake us.

And without a doubt, the shaking is coming soon…

      -Seen to be receiving the word, as a word, Dutchsinse, 02/27/2017, (see his youtube channel as he give fore-warnings about both earthquake and volcano dangers, beware, Apb, http://www.thephoenix1012.blogspot.com
      -And I Heard In My Hearing: “Yours Is A Nuclear Fate,” the end of all things men, beginning Us soil is come, so said the Angel Gabriel, 05/15/2004, meaning it’s thirteenth anniversary is nearing, beware, Apb,

      -Fleeing to any part of America, coming from the Apostle who forewarn, 2016 elections should be pound into repentant alters, that Trump’s a Truexit, escape. As I was saying, any manner of escape that includes any part of America, or western soil, is like the frog leaping from the boiling pot into the frying pan. I have a question, where do you want to be when you realize all forewarning these are the last days of America, (the dispensation of grace, the Church Age), of Western Soil period, were totally right? Be With Christ, hear Him, The Trump Of God, The Archangel when He, They call, repent to Jesus. see here, http://www.2016onewayprayer.blogspot.com

      -Sure enough, am I, Apostle Bradford, telling you how to die? While don’t be offended, by those Jesus deem thieves and robbers, even murders from the beginning all your life you been told how to die, only not righteously. Actually how to forfeit this present curse to either by Christ’s Cross unto eternal life, as God’s servant or by rejecting the Cross unto immortal damnation, having honored Satan’s Seat. Despite what you have by the American Dream been made to believe, this has always been the world, a curse of death, hence Jesus’ warning, he that believeth not is condemned already, actually from the womb, ye must be born again
      -It’s why holy scripture laments the last enemy of man that shall be destroyed is death, all former condemnations past away. Actually an indescribable glory accomplished by Christ’s Cross but won’t experience it’s fruition until the Great White Throne Judgment. The Great White throne judgment, Rev. 20,.is when all the ungodly dead, those names, even here lately not found written in the Lamb’s Book of Life, so like Satan, like the Antichrist they’re all cast into lakes burning with fire. This mean God’s Kingdom, to the Kingdom, New Age is Come, and the present earth and heaven has been phenomenally by exploding atoms newly remodeled, accordingly, beware.
      -Though God, God so loves the world of mankind, that while they’re yet sinners, the Brides’ fore-warnings are yet put forth this telling of pending dangers only seconds and counting from the great gathering Herself. Beware, nothing but your unrepentance, (Ps. 66:18), separates you from God’s astronomical plan to redeem what He fashioned from the foundation of this world, as is usually forewarn, repent or perish, Gabriel readies God’s Trump, The Archangel Michael His Voice, and, The Christ Himself, His Call, and with the speed of one blinking an eye out, up goes the Bride, beware, Apb,
      see http://www.2016onewayprayer.blogspot.com

      P. S. remember, not only did I hear lately, “an aquatic age,” 2017, there is yet the mystery, how doing a demonstration of rapture, 2010, those severely distracted into being left behind, were left severely stranded, this white man unrepentant, tossed into it’s bed, atop high rise buildings.. even Trump Towers, Apb, see http://www.theissueoftherest2016.blogspot.com

        hmm –so the magic man speaks eh pee tann you fool–the most delusional people on this planet is anybody involved in religion–even jesus warned about it–he lectured at length about the evils of religion and it got him killed–bible thumpers,christians..bible in one hand and fistful of nails in the other..insane lunitics “inspired by god”..yeah right..inspired by insanity…god does not read the bible–never has–never will–was not written by god either–some deranged dudes in cave wrote it–humans do not understand god–humans are too petty,immature,hateful,judgemental to understand god so they take their own human delusions and put it on god as if that is possible-god is above the human experience–god has no wrath or judgement–god knows who we are–little two yo babes in the realm of spiritual world–when a father turn on his two yo for acting like a two yo–yeah,if your a sick sob religious jerk-but to god there is nothing that is new–humans keep doing the same shit over and over again–so religion will keep parroting the same bullshit over and over cause it gives them power and money-god sent jesus to try to straight some shit out and of course the self righteous ones killed him and then another bunch of idiots stole the story and gave themselves authority like it was handed to them by god(it wasn’t) -but fret not you unholy bible thumpers,christians–salvation is for all or hell would already be full,with bible thumpers,christians because of their evil judgemental ways

      were I living there I would be much happier with a lot of small ones..means it letting the pressure off gradually
      Having come from the shaky isles I have had lots of quake shocks
      its when the things stop that the trouble starts

      I don’t think this is natural. It’s likely that it is Russia is testing a geophysical weapon, Russia’s HAARP, in Alaska.

      “A Russian geophysical weapon equivalent to the American HAARP installed in Alaska could cause earthquakes from anywhere in the world. The SURA, located near the small town of Vasilsursk about 100 km east of Nizhniy Novgorod, Russia, would have the same capacity for the HAARP, and can cause seismic movements in non-seismic areas like the East coast of the USA, where the majority of nuclear power plants in the country accumulates.”
