Earthquakes happen, big ones are rare. 10-15% chance of a Cascadia full rupture event in the next 50 years (based on activity over the past 10,000 years)

324 years ago tonight (9 p.m. Jan. 26, 1700) a M~9 #Cascadia subduction earthquake rocked the west coast from #VancouverIsland to northern #California. The Juan de Fuca Plate slipped as much as 20 m, causing a large tsunami, strong shaking and landslides https://t.co/l7nbpB7Q0G

@SaanichEP @ShakeOutBC @sd61schools That’s the school my kiddos go to! Thanks for helping educate, motivate, and prepare! I’ll be securing my kitchen cupboards with earthquake locks as my ShakeOut ‘homework’

[EEWSTeron @teron3moore]

@dr_earthquake @USGS_ShakeAlert I’d confidently follow your lead!

[John Cassidy @earthquakeguy]

The August 21, 1949 M8.1 earthquake off #HaidaGwaii ruptured a nearly 500-km-long segment of the Queen Charlotte Fault ("Canada's San Andreas Fault"). The average slip along the fault was about 5 m. This earthquake was followed by hundreds of aftershocks.

@alferraby @earthquakeguy Models are never correct, sometimes they are helpful. Most tsunamis that make impact on the coast of BC will be over-estimated by media, people that watch disaster movies and ‘worst-case’ tsunami models

[EEWSTeron @teron3moore]

@earthquakeguy I didn’t recognize him… but of course! Amazing scientist and overall great guy

Earthquake safety, innovation and demonstrated technology leadership! City of Seattle, you rock!

[Early Warning Labs @EarlyWarningLab]

Congratulations to the City of Seattle for becoming the first @USGS_ShakeAlert user in Seattle this week! Using Early Warning Labs tech they successfully recalled elevators and played audible alerts in their facilities during a live test.

[EEWSTeron @teron3moore]

@earthquakeguy Saving future lives is hard work! Thanks for being a big part of the push John!

[EEWSTeron @teron3moore]

Seismic session, earthquake education, tsunami talk… whatever you want to call it, I’m really looking forward to gathering in-person over the subjects of risk, resilience and readiness!

@TamsinLyle @earthquakeguy @alisonlbird Great catch, @TamsinLyle! Think of the effect on Recovery post event(s) after a big one on the CSZ! @ICLRCanada For me… I put my annual EQ insurance $ into a retrofit of my home. I started with the tenant’s suite where the gas line comes in, charge more rent and sleep soundly!

[EEWSTeron @teron3moore]

@alisonlbird @BCFerries @PatrickBWeiler @JenniferRice6 Love the Big Red Button effect!

[EEWSTeron @teron3moore]

Alright folks, it’s not long now!

[PreparedBC @PreparedBC]

BC’s Parliamentary Secretary for Emergency Preparedness @JenniferRice6 joined other dignitaries to announce that @NRCan has installed the first of 100s of sensors planned for the national Earthquake Early Warning (EEW) system https://t.co/UNAmqhljk0
