Big one. Arthquake Damage Why A Major Earthquake is Highly Likely How to Respond to Earthquake Advisories Where to Get More Information Credits and Disclaimer This article first appeared as an insert in major Bay Area Newspapers in 1990. Many of us breathed a little easier after October 17, 1989. The Loma Prieta earthquake, 7.1 on the Richter scale, meant that the big one, talked about for decades, had finally happened. And, bad as it was, we had survived. There are two things wrong with that. First, Loma Prieta was not the big one. It was a moderately big one, certainly destructive to some parts of the Bay Area, but nowhere near the size of the great San Francisco earthquake of 1906. Second, having an earthquake like Loma Prieta has little to do with the likelihood of having another one on a different fault, somewhere else in the area. The inevitability of a damaging earthquake still confronts everybody in the Bay Area, and we still risk substantial damage. A new study, released in 2003 by the United States Geological Survey, says that there is a 62 percent chance of a M>=6.7 earthquake during the next 30 years and that the quake could strike at any time, including today. In other words, scientists think that a magnitude 6.7 or larger earthquake is nearly twice as likely to happen as not to happen. This is a substantial increase, since in 1988, scientists thought the chance for such an earthquake was 50 percent (just as likely to occur as not to occur) within 30 years. The new report also says that the next one will most likely strike farther north than Loma Prieta, somewhere be big one

big one Sibility for the flooding and looting in New Orleans. As criticism over the slow federal response rose like the area's floodwaters big one, the White House responded with leaked reports of local bumbling. That had Democratic Senator Mary Landrieu of Louisiana fuming on ABC-TV's This Week that "if one person criticizes our sheriffs or says one more thing -- including the President of the United States -- I might likely have to punch him. Literally." Yet big one, the political recriminations show that even as we approach the fourth anniversary of the September 11 terrorist attacks big one, the nation remains divided on what to do when terrible things happen. We still have difficulty grasping the notion that we are not safe from disaster in our own country. We couldn't imagine a foreign terrorist attack on our soil. It happened. We couldn't imagine an entire city disappearing under water big one, its population evacuated -- but too late. It happened. We must begin to imagine future disasters big one, perhaps multiple catastroph.
