An 8.0-magnitude-plus earthquake hasn’t rumbled beneath the Pacific Northwest since the 1700s. Now, the region is due for the next “big one” and a subsequent tsunami. Coastal Indigenous communities could be severely affected. (Already, the Shoalwater Bay Tribe is constructing a tsunami tower to give their residents a better shot at survival in the face of this kind of natural disaster.)
Clues from the past—paired with modern-day science—can help us better understand why this area is at risk and how to best mitigate an earthquake and tsunami’s effects.

And now the Philippines is experiencing it tremendously.
WE JUST HAD A 7.2 EARTHQUAKE YESTERDAY. IF ITS STILL NOT A BIG ONE, WHAT MORE?? 7.2 MADE A BIG DESTRUCTION IN THE NORTHERN EREA OF THE PHILIPPINES! T_T
HAHAHA – ARE YOU GUYS DRUNK OR JUST PAID BY "gg"? HOW MUCH DID they PAY YOU FOR THIS BS ? 😉
SIGNS are INCREASING !
CALLING ALL THE PEOPLE ON EARTH, STOP UNDERESTIMATING GOD'S POWER AND REPENT, REPENT AND REPENT ! THE END OF TIMES IS HERE !
the amount of misinformation in this comment section is anoyying
Gotta love these white dudes that are 3% native that claim a tribe lmao
the very last of the Major Signs that will occur before the Day of Judgment. These signs include three landslides, the appearance of a smoke, the rising of the sun from the West, the appearance of a beast from the earth and finally a fire that will drive all people to a given location…
Soon
The only way a earthquake can happen in the northwest is if all the volcanos decided to explode. An that won't happen any time soon.
Hopefully, an earthquake and tsunamis will destroy mexico, that would be better.
DATE MISSING , NO DATE NO SENCE NOT WORTH WATCHING /
Yeah but all the fraking they are doing is stepping up the time table.
Who narrated this. The voice sounds so familiar.
When you went to Devil Worship and Took the Laws down. You lost all of your Protection. Why should God feed you? Protection for you? You started this . By calling on Flames and darkness the Devils colors. You got what you want.
Unfortunately, lots of children will die if it happens during the school day. The schools are not up to code. I wish more people cared…
That would be awesome. Armageddon!
I look forward to the earthquake and tsunami ridding us of the most destructive and voracious invasive species ever to walk the earth…the californian.
Washington DC is due too ! Since the Bidens took over ! There might not be a big earthquake for hundreds or thousands of years !
This is all about awareness. Not to be panic or what,, but atleast to be prepared at all times,, abd being aware of what to do if it happens any time.
Im confuse… why are they not mentioning the japan earthquake when they mention the big one they only mention the 1700 earthquake.
Then the angel took the censer, filled it with fire from the altar, and threw it to the earth. And (G)there were noises, thunderings, (H)lightnings, (I)and an earthquake.
But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death.
I don’t understand why this group of indigenous people are not recognized y the government. If they are natives of Canada, they also need their rights !
Who says that the east is due for an earth quake? Why say that? I wish earth cracks open like an egg so humanity is challenged.
The Bible say Rev 11:13
LOL, God is coming soon. There will be a HUGE earthquake such as the world has never seen. Wait for it…..
I'm 66 and I have to say that all my life the Big one has been coming!
They are right it's going to happen sooner or later and I hope to be dead and gone before it happens!
The devastation will be like nothing in our Nations history with the loss of life and the buildings the roads and airports everything gone
The lumbee's of south eastern NC are not recognized either
And thats why i don't live on the coast.
Wow, we don’t recognize the Chinook, but named one of our largest helicopters after them.
How about California?
In my honest opinion the earthquakes are caused because the Earth is shifting
There's no such thing as being "due" for an earthquake. The probability of one is the same today as it was 100 years ago. Stop spreading misconceptions.
Remember the one we had, which was a 6.8,they can happen at any time and to see the streets move like waves on the ocean that was scary
Just preparing the Great tribulation is soon coming. Matthew 24:21
u predict this.
Is the big one called the San Andreas earthquake
