Could 2020 have another big disaster in store?


Saw this in the Daily Mail:

California's chances of experiencing the Big One on the San Andreas fault in the next 12 months have TRIPLED after recent spate of micro-quakes

Well, to be honest, the chances are now 1.15%.  Still, that's not 0.35% chance, is it?

Learn more from the Los Angeles Times:

Chance of big San Andreas earthquake increased by Ridgecrest temblors, study suggests
"The study is the latest suggestion of a plausible scenario in which last summer’s earthquakes in a remote part of California might have started a chain of events that could result in a devastating earthquake on the San Andreas fault that has not been seen in Southern California in 163 years."
And to think, airfares to Los Angeles are really low right now.  What a deal!
