#CascadiaEQ Tweetchat Today - Earthquake Preparedness
















#10,933


The graphic above says it all.  Today at 10am (PST)  1pm EST there will be a tweetchat on the Cascadia Earthquake threat, and how to prepare.  Use hashtag #CascadiaEQ to follow along and participate.

Today is the 316th Anniversary of the Magnitude 9 mega thrust quake that struck the Pacific Northwest in 1700.   A quake that was only the latest in a long line of seismic events that tend to occur in that region every few hundred years. 


I've written a number of Cascadia quake related blogs over the years which you may wish to revisit.
