Quake, rattle, and roll

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Apparently the recent earthquake was not a subduction zone type earthquake... .. a very good thing for Anchorage. I live in the southern edge of the Cascadia Subduction Zone. I grew up in Southern California, and the San Andreas Fault was always a threat. Apparently, San Andreas is nothing compared to Cascadia. Cascadia Subduction Zone was only discovered in the last 30 years or so. Cascadia has produced earthquakes greater than 9 in the past (last time was 1700) and is expected to do so again. When Cascadia goes off, the Pacific Northwest will be devastated. This author received a Pulitzer for this article.

My reality is that my house will be destroyed when the earthquake hits. If I survive the earthquake, I won't be able to go anywhere with all the bridges down. I can plan on not having electricity for 6 months or more. If I happen to be in town when the earthquake happens and survive it, I will have a few minutes to get to higher ground before the tsunami wipes out the town. FEMA plans for this earthquake include flying supplies to a little air strip 18 miles inland. I thought that was strange, since the city has an airport. Then I remembered that the tsunami will take out the airport.....

When Cascadia goes off, my house and my fish tank will most likely be destroyed. I will be very fortunate if I survive it.
Best get some bug out gear prepared

That’s horrifying to think Pacu mom.

i suppose it could, i had a resealed 135 years ago that did just that but i think it was my reseal job that was the true culprit and the shaker just pointed it out earlier than it would have otherwise. I dry docked it and when i was moving someone stole it, hope it burst on them
What kind of person steals a fish tank? Out of all the things to steal why a bloody fish tank? Plus it's not exactly a candy bar so there’s a high chance of being seen while you’re lumbering around trying to carry it away to your car or god forbid if you’re that stupid walking down the road with it.

I had it stored at my brothers "dog house " place, they probably backed their truck up and loaded it and the 60 that was inside it and drove away, 3/8 inch plate glass so they must have cased it and brought help. Local law enforcement was no help but they really had no leads either
