I went to and E Prep event 3 years ago here in the PNW. The National Guardsmen were handing out information on how they were preparing for the “big one” that scientists say we are 100 years or so overdue. I have heard that when it hits, it will be 9+ and all of western Oregon and Washington, along with coastal BC will be a disaster area.
If/when it hits, the only thing that we, living in the areas affected, can do is hold on and hope and pray we are physically ok and have some preps stored. If not, well, it could be much more disastrous for some than others.
