Extras

There have been several requests for additional info regarding the likelihood of a Cascadia megathrust earthquake event hitting the PNW. Here is an additional set of PowerPoint slides, as well as a video presentation of the slides. I know the video is a bit long, but learning this information may just alter your risk perception completely. Let me know if you have questions!!

Becoming CSZ-ready is a great “all-hazards-readiness-plan”! I’m happy to discuss this topic at any time. If you have questions, please don’t hesitate to reach out!
