"MEGA-EARTHQUAKE: CALIFORNIA At Risk Of SINKING In Devastating Megaquake[VIDEOS]"





Federal, state and military officials have been working together to draft plans to be followed when the 'Big One' happens.

These contingency plans reflect deep anxiety about the potential gravity of the looming disaster: upward of 14,000 people dead in the worst-case scenarios, 30,000 injured, thousands left homeless and the region's economy setback for years, if not decades.

As a response, what planners envision is a deployment of civilian and military personnel and equipment that would eclipse the response to any natural disaster that has occurred so far in the US.

The Big One may be overdue to hit California, but scientists near Los Angeles have found a new risk for the area during
a major earthquake.

They claim that if a major tremor hits the area, it could plunge LARGE PARTS of California into the sea ALMOST INSTANTLY!

The discovery was made after studying the Newport-Inglewood fault, which has long been believed to be one of Southern California’s danger zones.

The fault runs under densely populated areas, from the Westside of Los Angeles to the Orange County coast.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZxPTLmg0ZCw






Major earthquakes on the fault centuries ago caused a parts of Seal Beach near the Orange County coast to sink 3ft in just seconds.

In total three quakes over the last 2,000 years on nearby faults made ground just outside Los Angeles city limits sink as much as 3ft.

Today that could result in the area ending up at or below sea level, said Cal State Fullerton professor Matt Kirby, who worked with the paper´s lead author, graduate student Robert Leeper.

The study showed that land within major Californian seismic faults could sink by 1.5 and three feet instantly.

The last known major quake occurred on the San Andreas fault in 1857.


Seismologists estimate the 800 mile-long San Andreas, which runs most of the length of the state, should see a large quake
roughly every 150 years.

'It´s something that would happen relatively instantaneously,' Kirby said.

'Probably today if it happened, you would see seawater rushing in.'

The study was limited to a roughly two-square-mile area inside the Seal Beach National Wildlife Refuge, near the Newport-Inglewood and Rose Canyon faults.

Kirby acknowledged that the exact frequency of events on the faults is unclear, as is the risk that another quake will occur in the near future.



"CALIFORNIA AT RISK OF DEVASTATING MEGAQUAKE"

A report from the U.S. Geological Survey has warned the risk of 'the big one' hitting California has increased dramatically.

Researchers analysed the latest data from the state's complex system of active geological faults, as well as new methods for translating these data into earthquake likelihoods.

The estimate for the likelihood that California will experience a magnitude 8 or larger earthquake in the next 30 years has increased from about 4.7% to about 7.0%, they say.

PLANS FOR 'THE BIG ONE'

Federal, state and military officials have been working together to draft plans to be followed when the 'Big One' happens.

These contingency plans reflect deep anxiety about the potential gravity of the looming disaster: upward of 14,000 people dead in the worst-case scenarios, 30,000 injured, thousands left homeless and the region's economy setback for years, if not decades.

As a response, what planners envision is a deployment of civilian and military personnel and equipment that would eclipse the response to any natural disaster that has occurred so far in the US.



There would be waves of cargo planes, helicopters and ships, as well as tens of thousands of soldiers, emergency officials, mortuary teams, police officers, firefighters, engineers, medical personnel and other specialists.

'The response will be orders of magnitude larger than Hurricane Katrina or Super Storm Sandy,' said Lt. Col. Clayton Braun of the Washington State Army National Guard.

It's been predicted for long that major parts of "California State will sink"
into the Pacific Ocean because the Pacific coast of the U.S. is experiencing
"subduction" or "SINKING" as a result of earthquake and volcanic activity!



[I got to know about this as far back as the early
1990s and decided to create a thread for
business and leisure travellers to be aware
this].


It is best to just "ZOOM in and out" of that California axis and not stay permanently!
California... and the major cities in it are
beautiful though.

This is really the BIG ONE

Evacuation process should commence ASAP

I have even known about this since the early 1990s.

I just decided that start a thread on this for NL users to be aware.
Even Nigeria has to be at alert because there is a FAULT LINE that
runs through the Atlantic ocean right through Lagos, Ogun, Oyo, Niger
States. 2 years ago, there were tremors in Saki, Kaduna[Nok axis],
and Bayelsa States. More seismic stations are needed.

But the CALIFORNIA MEGAQUAKE has the potentials to be bigger in scope
and would affect tourism and investments!

Looks like a repeat of the movie "San Andres" . It could strike anytime once it's due.

Are there even seismic stations in Nigeria ? I don't think there has been much movements on our tectonic plate though.. But these recent tremors... Are Warning signs

There is an earthquake FAULT LINE that runs from the Atlantic ocean right through Lagos, Ogun,
Oyo, and Niger States. 2 years ago, there were tremors in Saki, Kaduna[Nok axis],
and Bayelsa States. There are some shambolic seismic stations in Nigeria that could NOT
DETECT the Saki earthquake-like event of last year. Saki is in Oyo State and the
Seismic station in Ife could not register it.

Professor Idowu Odeyemi, a Senior Nigerian Geologist with a Nigerian university in the
accurately predicted that in 1984 a major earth tremor would occur in the Western
part of Nigeria and it did!

There is even a volcano in Zamfara State that I read erupted in the late 1990s.

"Shambolic seismic stations".... That about sums it up .True I read about the tremor in Oyo state.. But most people didn't read meaning to it.

If a fault line actually runs through Lagos,.Ogun.. then that's impending disaster. Most especially LAGOS. Imagine the huge waves from the Atlantic! . Hope the government takes this serious

This is the reason why former Governor Fasola was telling people NOT to dig boreholes in Lagos state
because in the event of a major tremor, because of the spaces created in sinking those boreholes,
the vibrations will have a higher impact on buildings.

Fortunately there is an earthquake-resistant technology called Stabilized Hydraform Technology.
But you know Nigerians are so used to the other cement blocks or sandcrete blocks that have SPACES/HOLES IN THEM
and they mistakenly think it is the best but it isn't the best for building because armed robbers even break
walls with hammers and power drills now to enter houses.


That one is still BETTER than that of California that has the potentials of SINKING into the Pacific ocean
as a result of a major... mega-earthquake!

Mega-thrust earthquake..? Then there's a possibility of a MEGA DESTRUCTION TSUNAMI.

Good thing they got the warning earlier. Possibility of a city sinking - Imagine the amount of energy it packs

Yeah...the Tsunami could occur if the earthquake occurs under the ocean close to the shore
like the devastating Asian Tsunami of the early 2000s.


The 2004 Indian Ocean earthquake occurred on the 26th of December with the epicentre off
the West Coast of Sumatra, Indonesia. The shock had a moment magnitude of 9.1–9.3!

The Tsunami hit the coasts of several countries of South and Southeast Asia in on
December 26, 2004 after an undersea earthquake...

The tsunami and its aftermath were responsible for immense destruction and loss of lives on
the rim of the Indian Ocean.

What is more important is the awareness so that people can start relocating before being caught up in the earthquake mess.This is what's lacking in developing nations. I sincerely hope Nigeria will learn quickly and be well abreast with earthquake challenges

@Olu317

I agree with you there!

For a place l like California that has the likelihood
of SINKING as a result of a MAJOR earthquake
into the Pacific ocean, it is so easy for people
to get carried away by the "sexy" buildings
and skylines... and even pretty women in Cali, but
as far back as the 1980s, I can remember reading that some smart organisations and
people with foresight had started relocating
to other parts of the U.S.


So it is good for business and leisure travellers to be aware of the
high risk earthquake zones and be prepared
for any eventualities.


The Western part of Nigeria is within a seismic
faultline and this is responsible for some
earth tremors which have occurred in Abeokuta,
Saki, Ibadan, Ijebu-Ode, etc. Saki town in Oyo
State, Kaduna and Bayelsa States experienced
earth tremors last year on a higher, never-before-seen intensity.


Accra in Ghana too has experienced several earth tremors in the past because it is located
along a faultline..


Fortunately Nigeria does NOT have earthquakes
yet, but it could occur because of increased
global seismic activities.


Cheers!

The GREAT LISBON earthquake of November
1st, 1755 was a major quake which originated
from an ABRUPT subsidence [SINKING] of
the Atlantic ocean floor, west of Lisbon in
Portugal.


Tidal waves as high as 11 metres or 35 feet
were set up... which swept across coastal
districts of Lisbon drowning thousands... and
most of the buildings collapsed completely.


The EFFECTS of the major earthquake were
within 640 kilometres or 400 miles radius of
Lisbon, in North Africa and Europe.


California is within the "Pacific Ring of Fire"
where over 70% of all major earthquakes
occur.

.

MODALSOUL1:
There's no logic in california sinking into the ocean. California will never sink into the ocean . that was a ploy to reduce California's population and discourage people from moving there.

When last did you hear of an earthquake in California? You know how many devastating earthquakes Japan alone has had since Northridge earthquake? You know how many earthquakes Mexico has had? what about the devastating one in Chile last month and the one in Syria and Iran. Did those sink in the ocean too?
As we speak there's a 7.5 magnitude earthquake in Papua New Guinea right now

^^^^^
^^^^^
@ModalSoul1

You're absolutely right about the
frequency of the earthquakes in the
different locations that you talked about.
One took place about 2 weeks ago in Taiwan
as well that led to the lose of lives.

California presents a different picture though
because it is located along the "Pacific Ring of Fire"
otherwise known as "Circum-Pacific Belt"
where you have a combination of intense
VOLCANIC and MASSIVE EARTHQUAKE activities
around the countries that are located along the
shores of the Pacific Ocean. I've done a lot of
studies since the early 1990s on the San
Andreas Fault line which is visible to the
eyes unlike other Fault lines that are NOT
visible but located beneath the earth.


I thought of the conspiracy theory too just
like you... I felt they just wanted to depopulate
California and the beautiful cities located
in California like San Francisco, San Diego,
etc. There is more evidence if you watch
the videos that I attached to my first post
on this thread that a major subduction
will take place within the next 30 years
that could lead to the SINKING of parts
of California. It is what it is... but my main
purpose of setting up this thread is to just
let residents and travelers to be more
aware of these facts when going to high
earthquake-prone areas, and to take
precautions in case of any eventuality.

The U.S. State Department regularly issues
travel advisories/warnings to all U.S. citizens around
the world on country-specific political tensions,
terrorist activities, etc. So putting this out
in the public domain is in order!


Cheers!

Hi Konquest,
This is Ngozi (MsNgo40)
I'm sorry for de-railing your thread....but I am compelled to do this.
Yes, unfortunately I had to get an alternate account.....which I will only use if I am "banned".

I'm a little puzzled as to why I have again been banned for 3 days! I was banned for 3 days a day or two ago in the Food Section. I posted a picture of a "Vegetable Minestrone Soup"...which has no poison or hazardous chemicals in it. I used no "foul or obscene language"...nor did I insult, abuse or malign" any other poster. I certainly didn't post any "nude " pics with my soup. I was only sharing a recipe I had made.
I'm coming to you since you had so graciously offered me help back in December 2017...if I had any problems. I have searched the site looking for ways to "mail" the Supermods.
I have tried to email the lovely ladies in the Food section...because interestingly enough, I've been banned before.....
But no response....
For some reason I keep getting "banned" in that section?
I have been banned only 1 time since I joined this site back in December 2016....and it was in the family section. I quickly emailed the moderator...and he unbanned me...which I thoroughly appreciated. That also was an "Anti-spam bot".
I don't know if I have offended someone...but I would like to have an answer for "why" a ban occurs...
If you could provide me with some information on how to contact the "Supermods" about this issue, I would love and thoroughly appreciate it.
Thanks a million.
I really like this website...regardless of some challenges I have experienced with my "people", however I don't want to be "turned off" because of unwarranted "bans". If I'm guilty, that's one thing....but when I'm innocent, I think it's appropriate to say so...regardless of the consequence.

Hi... Ngozi!


OK anytime YOU encounter the "anti-spam bot"
banning issue again... just go to the Web link below:

Type and tell the Supermods that YOU
want your hidden posts to be UNBANNED
and UNTAGGED.

The Supermods are very efficient.
Within 10 minutes, you will be able to
post messages again in the food section
or any section on Nairaland.

I also got unusually banned by the
"anti-spam bot” today and I did not
violate any of the rules. The "anti-spam
bot" is set too high.

Oh no problem brother. I totally get your frustration.
I wasn't necessarily complaining, I was more so voicing my concern...and honestly wanting some action taken.
I, however, just don't want to bash the site for some of its challenges...cause I actually like it. I have tried to deactivate (based on certain situations) about 4 times or so...but I kept coming back. This is my "window" into Nigerian culture until I actually arrive there. I am learning so much and I want to continue doing so.
I mailed the Supermod...and thank whomever he/she was who released the ban....
I am gonna now return back to my usual moniker...and put this one to 'rest". I hope I will never have to use it again.

Alright then...you're welcome Ngo.

Send me some of that "Minestrone Soup"
in your kitchen... saw your soup pic on the foodie
thread has been restored as well.

I think the anti-spam bot problems we all had
while posting pictures and YouTube video
links within the last 4 days was as a result
of a technical glitch... but thank goodness
for the Supermods who always resolve
the banning issues quickly within 5
minutes.

So, keep in touch... and be good
to yourself.

Take care.

Konquest,
All I know is (when I logged in earlier this morning...u guys' time), I was able to post (under this moniker) before my ban expired around 2:17 a.m. (you guys' time) this morning....which I am grateful.
Yes....i saw the soup...
I'm happy! I just love the colors....it was healthy and tasty. My dad really liked it ( cause I made it for him)....and he's picky about food.
If I could package it, I surely would send it.
Look at me....i took a thread about a California earthquake...to a thread about vegetable soup and being banned...lol
I'm sorry for that sir....
U take care

It's alright...
But I would feel much
better when I get that
"sexy-looking Minestrone"
via DHL express delivery
service.

I hope you really enjoyed
reading my thread and videos
on the California earthquake
situation? I believe your
relatives in California are safe
for now... but then the
projections by Seismologists
is that within the next
30 years, the mega-quake
leading to parts of California
"sinking" as a result of "subduction"
could occur. The "Great Lisbon
Earthquake" that occurred on
the ocean floor of the Atlantic Ocean
on the 1st of November, 1755
is a perfect example of a
"subduction" which caused
massive destruction to Lisbon,
Lagos, Faro, and other cities in
the Kingdom of Portugal, with
accompanying tsunami waves
of over 20 feet high, 40 minutes
after the first earthquake!

Check the attached images to
this post below to see the "subduction
zones" and the epicenter of the quake
in the Atlantic Ocean close to Europe
in 1755!

I had earlier typed the main post...
so as to simply enlighten travelers
to earthquake-prone areas to
take preventive measures
and/or learn about emergency
situations in earthquake
scenarios as well since
over 50,000 earthquakes
occur annually especially
within the "Pacific Ring
of Fire" where California
and other countries are
located!


Just basically looking at
the big picture.

Au revoir!


P.S. Just a quick one... Lagos in
Western Nigeria was named after
Lagos in Southern Portugal by
Portuguese explorers who sailed
to West Africa about 500 years
ago.

"Sexy-looking" soup...lol. I don't think I will ever be able to reconcile "sexy" with food...
But the soup was pretty though
I may be fighting a losing battle with Nigerians...knowing there wasn't any goat, fish, turkey or or ox tails in it..lol.
But I can assure them it was good...my dad liked it.
I appreciate your courage to want to try it.
Anyhow, yes...your thread was enlightening....but it just made me a little more nervous that my relatives moved over there, cause I'm learning to say "never say never".
Interesting tidbit about Lagos...
I really love the name...
Lagos had been featured on CNN on a show called, "Parts Unknown" with Anthony Bourdain..
I have yet to see the episode which aired back in October I think, but my dad watched it and said it was pretty good.
I know he's been to South Africa and the Congo...(perhaps Egypt)....
Anyhow, thanks for the info...as I continue my learning.

P.S. I see you know some French...

Ngo... It's interesting that you watch
@Bourdain on CNN too. You seem
to love adventure as well!


#PartsUnknown
@anthonybourdain

Aha!... Anthony Bourdain's "Parts Unknown"
is a fantastic and stimulating program on
CNN which airs every Sunday. His pictures
are attached below on his visit to Lagos,
Nigeria which was aired as Season 10
Episode 3 on the 15th of October 2017!


I saw scenes of his visit to Lagos in Season
10 Episode 3 when he came for his
foodie/travel adventure. He also visited the
3 children of the world famous Afro-beat
music legend, Fela Anikulapo-Kuti at the
New Afrika Shrine. Yeni, Femi, and Seun
Kuti are music entrepreneurs as well which
was great! The Episode 3 was nicely made.


Just to add... the original Yoruba name
of Lagos is Eko. The European explorers knew
the "Island of Eko" as "Lagos Island" on their
maritime maps... and when British colonialism
began in the 1860s, the British simply retained
the name Lagos Island. So Lagos and Eko are
officially used interchangeably as of today.


Yes, I speak up to 3 languages fluently...
and because I'm adventurous, and love
to travel for business and leisure, French
has to be in the mix. I use a portable voice
"language translation device" for communicating
in French-speaking countries when I don't
have enough vocabularies to use in specific
situations!

Last but not least, don't get bothered or
nervous about the potential mega-earthquake
situation... I think your relatives are fine as of now
and they can use this information to create
"Plans B or C" in the short-term to medium-term
and NOT depend on staying in CA permanently!
They can make up their minds based on
what they see or read on this thread.


Take care... Je t'aime!


P.S. I love the colourful look of your
minestrone dish without meat. People have
to get used to eating less red meat or no meat at all
because excess red meat causes cancer... especially colon cancer. Plant-based protein substitutes and fresh fish containing Omega-3 and Omega-6 oils are
the real health food nirvana.
