We had a 3.2 magnitude earthquake in my area today, 13 miles down below the surface. The epicenter was basically under my farm. Third such in last 10 years. This area saw a 5.8 a century ago. Even the 3 felt like a tree falling on the building today, so thats enough for me.
While the western San Andreas fault gets all the notoriety, actually there are several faults in the midwest and east that are considered by some to be more dangerous because of their positions and lack of activity, i.e., due for a slip.
Haven't been to the farm yet but after last years drought destroying my brassica plots, if I go down there and all my brassica have been sucked into some abyss created by said earthquake, I'm gonna be pissed. But on the bright side, if the east slides into the ocean, I will have less drive time for beach front property.
