What If A Mega Earthquake Hit California

California is located in a hot-zone of fault lines that can rupture without warning. One of these faults, the San Andreas, is overdue for a high magnitude earthquake commonly referred to as “The Big One.” Here’s what experts say could happen when it hits the West Coast.

The 2019 earthquake wasn't directly in Ridgecrest, it was in Trona about 20 miles away. Ridgecrest is just the nearest relatively populated area. Trona's roads were destroyed and a good majority of the buildings sustained major damage. Folks from surrounding towns drove water and supplies off-road into Trona to give to the residents. There's still damaged and destroyed buildings visible around town too, even three years later.

Because San andreas fault is mostly like on land

[@danthompson1575]

This one won’t. Problem is California is built close to Two major danger areas. The thing they didn’t talk about at all is the cascadia plate, which is SO much worse than the San Andreas fault. That’s the one right off the coast also expected to go off within the next 50 years and that one since it’s an actual subduction zone will be much worse. Subduction zones tend to create larger quakes, and some scientists suspect it could be up to a magnitude 9.0, and unlike the San Andreas fault, it WILL cause a massive tsunami. Some people theorize that the big one from the San Andreas fault could actually trigger the subduction zone to shift causing the cascadia earthquake to begin, albeit very unlikely. Regardless, people in California only tend to care about the San Andreas fault because they can see it, but never talk about the cascadia plate pushing in. California won’t have a Big One. It will have two.

Reading the “earthquake readiness checklist”. Forget the cellphone, if the towers don’t have power, they are worthless. Cellphones are nothing but radios, that need a tower to function. If said towers are overloaded or without power, cellphones are worthless. Everything else on that list is good. PS.., if you have a satellite phone, that is very different. Keep in mind though, emergency personal are going to need those satellite channels open, so please, be brief when making that call out in an emergency.

I witness 2 California Cities or area of an Earthquake. One in Bay area up North and one in San Diego that took notice. 1989 was North and felt and saw the Waves and Waves of quakes, (not after shock tremors). The waves lifted me 4 feet riding it up and down. Now, the one in San Diego or South was just minor of 5.2 but, there was a big difference from the North for this one felt it was dropping instead of sliding as I realized the difference of the 2 of how the region re acts of how it is moving. North likely shifting North, while South is being sunk in and not sliding.

[@Skyewastaken2]

I’ve lived in Taiwan my entire life and honestly as often as we get earthquakes I’m still terrified of them. We use to have earthquake drills at school but It’s really completely different how you think you’ll react and how you will actually react. Really the most important part that really does save lives is to duck cover and hold on, after an earthquake ends get out of the building you’re in and get to a clearing as far away from a building as you can get, and have an earthquake go bag with some water food and first aid kit with you and have a bigger one at your home and workplace. As ridiculous as you think it is to prepare, it’s better safe then sorry.

I’m more concerned with the Cascadia fault line, which can do far more damage then the San Andreas Fault. That, and I have a lot of family in Vancouver, and in Seattle, it would be a catastrophe of epic proportions, something never before seen by modern men, wiping out the entire upper west coast of North America. Sadly, most of the buildings in that region are not prepared for earthquake and tsunami if that magnitude. Most structures by the San Andreas fault, due to its infamy, I’m much better equipped and designed to handle heavy loads during an earthquake, causing much less damage. It’s not a question of if, but simply a question of win, and both are overdue. Thank God I live in Toronto!
