Important Takeaways:
- The Tsunami Could Kill Thousands. Can They Build An Escape?
- The Cascadia fault off the Pacific Northwest coast is poised for a massive, 9.0-magnitude earthquake at some point, scientists say, a rupture that would propel a wall of water across much of the Northwest coast within minutes.
- A quake from the fault, located roughly 70 miles offshore, could cause land along the shore to immediately drop by several feet.
- A Cascadia wave would arrive at shorelines within 15 minutes.
- Depending on the season and the time of day, Oregon estimates that 5,000 to 20,000 could die along the coast in a similar event, largely because of a lack of escape options
- To improve the chances of survival, officials in Washington State have proposed a network of 58 vertical evacuation structures along the outer coast and advised considering dozens of others. They could provide 22,000 people with an option for escape, although thousands of others would remain out of range.
- Vertical evacuation structures have been embraced in Japan for years, in the form of platforms, towers and artificial berms
