The Big One May Be Delayed

Don't be fooled by appearances. In Hawaii, some of the most powerful people look like bums and stuntmen.

Re: The Big One May Be Delayed
On the USGS site, they say there's a chance, I think 66%, of a major quake between now and 2032. But it's more likely to hit Northern California than Southern. This guy says because of the water in Salton Sea is pressing on the Imperial Fault, it could trigger a big one here in SoCal. Well, if you go to the USGS site, it shows lots of activity along the Imperial Fault, from the Mexican border to Riverside County.

There are links for other maps on the left as well as the bottom of the page.
