Earthquake Forecast: 4 California Faults Are Ready to Rupture

Quote
With several faults slicing through the San Francisco Bay Area, forecasting the next deadly earthquake becomes a question of when and where, not if.

Now researchers propose that four faults have built up enough seismic strain (stored energy) to unleash destructive earthquakes, according to a study published today (Oct. 13) in the Bulletin of the Seismological Society of America.

In a major leftist area.

Calif. is full of major and minor faults.  It's been a long time since there has been anything major.
