  1.  @rebeccapierson5498  In the past I was invited to Ocean Shores and I begged off for that very reason. Just in case, you know? The place would be a death trap.

  3. We have to wonder. Most of her seismological information is completely wrong.

  4.  @brandonholt6717  Well, she is just the talker, I realize now. The real writer got all the seismological information wrong and I wrote a longer piece about that in another comment. Look for it. I'm not going to rewrite it.

  5.  @deborahlozano8198  Big quakes are rare here and inland you should be fine as long as your house is connected to your foundation and your breakables inside are secured. Inland you don't have to worry about tsunamis and you have distance between you and any big stuff.

  6. Bull! Where did your writers get their information? Trip Jennings, you need to find a new job! There's a 14% chance of it being a 9+ hitting within the next 200 years!!! This report is ridiculous!!! I guess this is what happens when a weather expert tries to act like a seismologist, for which she has no training. And what your little graph showed but what you didn't point out was that while the last 9 did take place in 1700 the last 9 BEFORE that took place 2400 years ago, or 400 years before Jesus was born. Now, what does that tell you, weather girl? The normal pattern is to have two 8+ quakes, separated by about 70 years, usually starting around southern Oregon and another one between Portland and Seattle. An 8 is 32 TIMES smaller than a 9. But you don't say any of that here, do you? You just what to scare us! Although, admittedly, why anybody would live close to the beach when tsunamis are always going to occur no matter how small the Megathrust is, is asking why anybody is also suicidal.

  7. Almost no damaging wind and localized when it does hit.

  8. Sorry to disappoint you, but no. However, maybe the Greenland Glaciers will melt and raise the ocean level by 20 feet. Is that almost as good?

  9.  @elizabethhenning778  I just heard a home inspector speak in your comment who knows for whom he actually works. Maybe not so much for you even if you were the one who paid him.
