California’s Magnitude 7+ Earthquake Drill — Preparing Millions for “Inevitable” Disaster

October 18, 2018 Cap Allon

The Golden State will hold large-scale emergency drills today, with the hope of preparing millions of people for a M7 or greater earthquake.

Seismologists believe California is decades overdue a “Big One” and as the Grand Solar Minimum intensifies the threat is ever increasing.

The San Andreas Fault – a 750-mile fissure that runs the length of California – has been building energy for more than 100 years and is thought to be the biggest risk.

The state’s last colossal rupture was in 1906, when the San Andreas Fault laid waste to San Francisco.

That massive M7.8 earthquake reduced buildings to rubble in less than a minute, killing around 7,500 people and destroying 80% of the city.

*1906 — San Francisco’s M7.8 quake reduced buildings to rubble*

*The death-toll amounted to 7,500 people in the end, with 80% of the city destroyed*

To prepare residents for the worst, millions across the state will practice how to “drop, cover, and hold on” on Oct 18.

John Vidale, director of the Southern California Earthquake Center, said: “When we look at the history of the fault, we can see these big earthquakes have happened many times over the last few thousand years, so yeah, it’s an inevitability.

“We just don’t know if it’s going to be now or two hundred years from now.”

Recent research, however, would suggest the “big one” is likely to pop off sooner rather than later.

Seismic and volcanic activity has been correlated to changes in our sun.

The global uptick in earthquakes and volcanoes we’ve witnessed lately is likely attributed to the drop-off in solar activity, coronal holes, and the increase in Galactic Cosmic Rays penetrating silica-rich magma.
