Re: Large earthquake hits off Vancouver (Mw>5.5) |
Hi Lowell, That is news. I think I would not be alone in thoughts of what this is leading up to, if anything. Its difficult to imagine so many quakes and them having not adding up to something. While historical records indicate Canada north of BC and a little inland seem to be tied to events in Olympia in the past, one never knows the patterns will repeat. If they were to do so, then one could possibly expect a large earthquake north and east of Vancouver Island. As the plate boundary involved is active from the Mendocino Triple Junction to Vancouver, I suppose there might be a possiblity that the quakes at present could shift pressures on the plate boundary and in turn could move area's north and south, so that something else unexpected turns up.
