The west coast never stops shaking, but lately the shaking has gone to an entirely new level, and this has many people deeply concerned about what may be coming. Last summer, a series of alarming foreshocks immediately preceded the two historic quakes that shook the Ridgecrest area in southern California. But those quakes were nothing compared to “the Big One” that scientists assure us is way overdue. Someday an earthquake that is hundreds of times stronger will absolutely devastate the California coastline, and it may be arriving a lot sooner than many people think. Farther north, the Cascadia subduction zone is a ticking time bomb that could literally unleash an unprecedented disaster at any moment. What I am talking about is an event that will completely wipe out entire cities and that the region will never recover from. As I have detailed repeatedly, authorities have warned us that “everything west of Interstate 5 will be toast” when an absolutely massive seismic event along the Cascadia subduction zone sends a gigantic tsunami sweeping inland.
And without a doubt, that day is coming.
Because of the extreme damage that a major west coast seismic event would do to our economy and to our Internet infrastructure, all of our lives will dramatically change the moment it happens. So it is understandable why so many people are alarmed by the tremendous shaking that we have witnessed over the past few days. As Americans all over the country were celebrating Christmas, the state of California was shaken by 9 significant earthquakes, and farther north the city of Vancouver was rattled by a magnitude 6.3 quake…
A series of earthquakes on Christmas Eve and before dawn Christmas morning hit around California, and a much bigger 6.3 quake shook off Vancouver.
At least nine earthquakes in 24 hours reaching up to 3.2 magnitude shook California from the Los Angeles area north to Chico, the U.S. Geological Survey reports.
The other quakes in the swarm ranged from 2.5 to 3.0 magnitude and stretched the length of the state, according to the USGS.
The large earthquake that shook Vancouver was preceded by five other large earthquakes that hit the region on Monday…
There were no reports of damage or injuries after five earthquakes struck within seven hours off the northwest end of Vancouver Island on Monday.
The tremors began as minor quakes, but grew stronger as the morning turned to afternoon.
According to the CBC, those five large earthquakes ranged in size from magnitude 4.8 to magnitude 6.0…
- 5.1 (8:44 a.m. PT).
- 5.6 (11:13 a.m.).
- 5.8 (11:49 a.m.).
- 6.0 (12:56 p.m.).
- 4.8 (3:38 p.m.).
Hopefully this earthquake swarm off the coast of Vancouver will turn out to be nothing.
But scientists tell us that an enormous rupture of the Cascadia subduction zone has the potential to produce a giant tsunami hundreds of feet tall, and the death and destruction such a tsunami would cause in Vancouver, Seattle, Tacoma, Portland and other coastal communities in the Northwest would be absolutely off the charts.
Meanwhile, we have also witnessed more than 30 significant earthquakes over last 30 days in the vicinity of Mt. Rainier, and anyone that is familiar with my work knows how concerned I am about the potential for a major eruption of that volcano.
Because there is always at least a little bit of shaking going on along the west coast, many residents have been lulled into a false sense of security. Yes, a major disaster has not happened in a long time, and as a result many believe that there is nothing to be concerned about. But someday a major event will strike very suddenly, and the devastation will be unimaginable. Just consider what Steve Quayle recently told Greg Hunter…
“The amount of damage, and I am going to choose my words carefully, is going to be precedent setting. It’s going to be the combination of volcanos going off that are inland from the subduction zone where the plates meet, coupled with tsunamis. . . . When this happens, you will lose eight million to twenty million people. When it happens, you will lose all productivity in the electronic field, obviously Silicon Valley, and all food production in all of California, Oregon and Washington. When it happens, you will have a State of Emergency unlike any other. How about the refugees? There will be 3.5 million refugees to take care of. When this happens, what happens to the underground aquifers, and where does everybody go for fresh water? There will be years of drought, years of famine and years of water, water where did it all go? It is a very dire situation painted by computer models. This is not a sensational thing. It is a reality based, scientific study with the application of what happens.”
Hopefully such an event will be delayed for as long as possible.
But each day it gets a little closer.
Before I get back to California, there is one more little tidbit from the Northwest that I wanted to share with you. On Friday, the city of Seattle experienced “its darkest day in recorded history”…
Seattle, the city known for its rainy weather and overcast, saw its darkest day in recorded history Friday due to several factors, including shorter days and dense cloud coverage.
Pyranometers are devices installed in buildings on campus at the University of Washington that help scientists gauge just how dark the days actually get in the city, the Seattle Times reported. Scientists there monitor how much solar radiation reaches the ground during a 24-hour span.
Could that be some sort of a harbinger?
I don’t know, but certainly a lot of really weird things have been happening in the U.S. lately.
Overall, there have been more than 1,200 earthquakes in the United States over the past week, and the majority of those quakes have happened in the state of California.
Prior to the earthquake swarm that we witnessed on Christmas Eve and Christmas Day, a series of moderate quakes rattled the Ridgecrest area on Thursday and Friday…
Five months after the biggest earthquake in two decades, a swarm of smaller quakes rattled a secretive Navy base in the Mojave Desert Thursday afternoon and before dawn on Friday, according to the US Geological Survey.
Five quakes magnitudes over 2.5 struck Naval Air Weapons Station China Lake between 3 p.m. Thursday and 3.30 a.m. Friday in Ridgecrest, CA, according to the Fresno Bee.
That is the exact same area where two large earthquakes made headlines all over the globe last July.
Could it be possible that another major event is on the way?
As I repeatedly stress, we live at a time when our planet is becoming increasingly unstable.
Maybe it won’t happen this week, and maybe it won’t happen this month, but scientists assure us that major seismic disasters are coming to the west coast.
It is simply a matter of time, and time may be running out a whole lot more rapidly than most people would dare to imagine.

The governor of California has banned jumping up and down.
Hope the sucker ‘blows’ – as long as they don’t come to my state.
Worth repeat.
The governor has banned jumping up and down.
I am laughing.
“Hope the sucker ‘blows’ before they come to my state.” tiftfy
I hope pelosi is home…..
Wishing harm on anyone is not our thing – but you’d think that people would and should be aware of the risks. (Such as living near the coast in a hurricane zone). If “warning signs” are to be taken seriously – smart people would relocate somewhere with fewer risks?
We do, however, get miffed when people clamor for “assistance” when they knew full well that living in hazardous areas come with risks.
Why not an “at your own risk” type of requirement? That no assistance should be expected if you get rattled out, flooded out, or whatever.
It’s like living near an active volcano and crying when it erupts on your house.
It’ Snyder, Mr. Dorm Porn hisself. I am now afraid of everything. I hope he’s happy.
You should be afraid. You homewrecker.
About thirty years ago I had a HS friend tell me over a beer that he couldn’t tell me anything, look at his beer, and shake his head. I believe he was working in the military in some capacity that exposed him to a flow of messages. That was thirty years ago. Cucks here saying ye reap as ye sow. No clue.
OMG, I think I’ll chop my head off and run around like a chicken.
20,000,000 people are going to die? In what natural disaster has anything close to that number ever been killed? Yes, I realize there are a ton more people.
mostly beaners
Revelations 18:4. We could likely forestall this if as a nation we turned back to God instead of further into degeneracy. We’ve all seen the shit coming out of California, Oregon and Seattle. Can anyone really say they don’t deserve it?
I knew that interpretation was coming. What would Lex Luther do? He’d buy the future beach-front property. I smell opportunity.
We all deserve it. Thus Gods grace is as magnanimous as it is. Where sin abounded grace did that much more abound.
We can forestall nothing. What we can do is share the gospel and hope people listen, question and learn.
If we are lucky, California will fall into the ocean.
Will California fall into an economic and social abyss of their own making or will an earthquake or tsunami intervene first? In either case, someone will be looking after the refugees and cleaning up the mess.

A 5.5 would feel like a bowel movement after a night of tacos and beer at your buddies place. Wake me when it’s over 7.0
7.7 coming ur way!
https://www.smithsonianmag.com/science-nature/the-great-midwest-earthquake-of-1811-46342/
Earthquakes are measured on a different scale than most people expect. A 6.0 earthquake is 10 times bigger than a 5.0, and so forth. So, a 7.7 earthquake releases 7 times as much energy as a 7.0 quake.
Increased volcanic and seismic activity is predicted with the solar minimum.
…which can only be the finger of G-d.
The finger of entropy.
You’ll know when God begins to clean house… no mistaking that.
Any lifetime now. Your master is an absentee landlord.
Keep smiling Doug.
Mr Doug,
What you are proposing is known as “The ClockMaker Theory”-The Creator or Maker of this universe, whoever He, She, or It is, built a clock, wound it up, then walked away, allowing the main spring to wind down to the zero available energy state or 100% entropy. That theory says that He never intervenes or pays any attention as the mainspring (available energy in the universe) winds down.
A second theory, the one that experience has taught me to espouse, might be called the “watchmaker theory”. When the creator initially wound the watch and adjusted its mechanism, it kept perfect time and everything worked just as designed. Over the passage of thousands of years or ever millions of years, the watch started to accumulate dust & debris in the mechanism and quit working perfectly. So, occasionally, the watchmaker cleans and readjusts the watch. You could say that the creator reaches a finger in occasionally to move things one way or another or ever to squash some annoying creature, kinda like we squash an ant with a finger or thumb. I am quite sure that His reasons for squashing one of us is far better than our reasons for squashing an ant.
The third theory of which I am aware is the theory pushed by numerous preachers that The Creator is continually moving and shuffling things around, often in response to prayer. My experience leads me to believe that He gives us what we need, not what we want. The only information I have on prayer resulting in material change is when someone prayed for something they really, really needed, and the prayer was very specific. The information was in a book written by a Dutch Reformed minister who was held in Dachau concentration camp, along with numerous other Protestant ministers and Catholic priests. Most of them were on the verge of death from starvation and abuse sponsored by the psychopathic camp commander. They prayed that the food parcels from home would be delivered to them and that the camp commander be replaced. Their prayers were answered.
A volcano right in San Fransicko – it would take care of Sodomy City.
What about Bakersfield?
Bakersfield? Ocean front property…..buy now !!!!
There were a lot of quakes before The Big One in 1906 (it’s in the records) triggered a lot of faults (within minutes of the Big event) to released their pressure per se; pressure has since been rebuilding and the frequency of quakes has lately been going up; any fool can see that another Big One is building. Could be 20July 2020, 10Feb2021 or later. So many Prophets and Scientist have called this one that only Useful Idiots will be surprised.
whoever wrote this is an idiot. The “Vancouver quake” was over 300 miles away. 2.0 and 3.0 quakes happen every day in California. And “tsunamis hundreds of feet high”? LOL…..I’m not minimizing Cascadia…..but no, there will not be waves “hundreds of feet high”, any more than we saw in Indonesia or Japan…very limited places up to 100 feet….usually far less. Downtown Seattle, Portland, Tacoma WOULD be seriously flooded for sure.
I can hear the surf roar from my house and I am going to stay here. I fully expect to see total war, either with ourselves or with other countries, long before any tsunamai.
One for EC
If it doesn’t blow in “their” timeline then “they” will probably use a nuke to help it along.
Had Mikey The Doomsayer been around in the good old days …. when Jeebus walked the Earf …. they used to put to death False Prophets. Mikey The Doomsayer would have never seen his 30th birthday. Mikey is a maroon.
Edgar Cayce, the sleeping seer, was quoted as saying that the west half of California would sink below the surface of the Pacific Ocean in 1969. So many of his predictions came true that I was surprised when the big one did not happen in 1969. I did not want it to happen, but I was surprised. Edgar Cayce was known as the sleeping seer because he was able to make mostly accurate predictions and medical diagnoses when he would lie down and go into a sleep-like trance.
The East Coast is also in danger of a tsunami, or tidal wave. A big volcano in some islands off the coast of northern Africa has over the centuries built a large mass of solidified magma on its seaward side. Scientists have predicted that if the huge mass of solidified magma ever breaks loose, and falls into the Atlantic ocean, it will create a very large tsunami that will hit seacoasts around the edge of the Atlantic ocean, including the east coast of the US.
Other scientists have predicted a repeat of the great earthquake of 1812 (?) along the New Madrid Fault. That earthquake caused great devastation along the Mississippi River, but that area was not densely populated and few structures existed that were meant to last a long time. Now, that area is densely populated and cities like St Louis have grown much larger and contain tall building where nothing similar existed in 1812. Some psychics have predicted that the next big quake along the New Madrid Fault will turn the Mississippi River into an inland sea.
I will have beachfront property!
Mary C too maybe!
Sounds lezzy. I’ll take Big Red for 500, Alex.
For some reason thought of Foster Brooks, and this joke about a drunk walking during an earthquake.
Add to this disastrous possibility the Yellowstone Caldera going critical mass and we got us a biblical apocalypse snuffing 3/4 of America !

According to archeologists, modern man has existed in his present form, with his current brain capacity for about 300K years. And yet we are supposed to believe we have only developed civilization over the past 6 or 7 thousand years?
We also have fossil evidence that plants and animals have existed in places on the earth where their existence should be impossible. Tropical plants in Siberia, Norway, and even Antarctica. Scientists tell us this could have been the result of a warmer climate, but the truth is some of this vegetation requires much longer periods of sunlight than would be possible at the polar regions during the winters. The only thing that really explains this is crustal displacement. The theory of crustal displacement is that periodically the earths crust slips relative to its core and continents end up in different locations from where they were previously .
If such an event actually happened, it would cause such massive tsunamis, it would wipe out all life along the coasts of all continents. 2/3rds of the worlds population live within 100 miles of a coast line. Many if not most of the food grown in inland regions would not grow in their new climates. What few survivors there were, would have to revert to being hunter gatherers to survive. And the cycle would start all over…..
Is that anything like a polar shift?
