United States faces a risk of a 9.0 earthquake and a large tsunami!
The U.S. coastal areas may face a strong 9.0 earthquake, which could trigger a large tsunami up to 30 meters high. Seismologists have found signs of increased tectonic activity along the Cascadia Subduction Zone, stretching nearly 970 kilometers from Canada to California.
Scientists have discovered four major faults in the area, and the tectonic plates are already in a high-stress state. According to seismic predictions, an earthquake of magnitude 9.0 is possible, and the resulting tsunami could generate waves over 30 meters high, leading to more than 10,000 deaths in Oregon and Washington states.
