THE BIGGEST STRIKE-SLIP QUAKE EVER: HOW IT TRIGGERED QUAKES WORLDWIDE - Brian Hackney CBS5 Reports

  • Seismologists were stunned when a strike-slip fault triggered a M8.6..and just as surprised when it literally caused faults worldwide to fail. Seemingly dullish topic enlivened by the irreplaceable Ross Stein of (at the time) the US Geological Survey, and his exquisite ability to explain this unprecedented event. The cameo appearance of my dog (and very able seismic prop) Flossie no doubt tipped the balance in favor of this piece winning the Northern California Emmy for best same-day story. Incidentally, my co-anchor, Juliette Goodrich was nominated in the same category, and richly deserved a win. She has never liked me since.

    Thanks for bringing this to our attention. Seismic surveillance just gets better all the time and offers us better ways to connect the dots. I remember living in Aptos and taking my dogs on long hikes into Nisene Marks. The Loma Prieta trail was something I was very familiar with. I was on a walk in 1984 and heard like a muffled roar, the creak of trees as they swayed and dust from the side of the hill coming down. There are very deep canyons in that park and the trails can be narrow. (The sea shells found on the sides of the cliffs is an indicator of where these mountains come from.) No mention on the news...or maybe there was but I missed it (not much internet back then). Years later and I'd moved to Oregon when I heard about the '89. Hope you can see that park first hand. It's so popular, they probably don't allow dogs off leash anymore.

      Hi Leslie. Actually, the estimated magnitude for probably the largest quake in the U.S. is the Good Friday quake of 1964 (M9.2) in Alaska.
      The 1700 M8-9 Cascadia subduction zone quake off the Pacific Northwest is also in the range. The New Madrid quakes are estimated at M7.5-M8, which uncertainty is within the range of the 1906 SF quake (M7.9). And of course, this piece focuses on Northern California, because the station is in San Francisco and naturally caters to its local audience. Thanks kindly for the note.

    ive lived in california my whole life and never experienced but one quake, that was a 3. something, than i moved to hawaii, there i experienced a 4.5, that is what gave me my passionate interest in quakes. Now im back in calfornia and have only felt a very small one, im talking small because no one else felt it, it was just enough to cause my hanging wine glasses to clatter for a second. i guess it does have to depend on where it is im located but im 28 years old now and have only felt 2 very small quakes in cali. i think it may be over hyped.

      @TVBAYAREA  4 роки тому +13

      Hi Investor...in fact, all the faults in the Bay Area are known collectively as the San Andreas Fault system. The boundary between the large NAP and Pacific plates isn't a distinct single line, but in fact, is visualized better as a pack of cards with the overall slip of the system taking place over numberless and often nameless faults, of which the Hayward fault is one. Thanks for asking for the clarification, though, as the documentary could have done more to spell that out.

    It appears that we humans are responsible for this:
    260. Due to the nature of the geography of the planet, the land, the mountains, the forests, oceans and inland waters, the movements only happen gradually, however, unstoppably, for which the unstoppable and irrational and increasingly excessive overpopulation and its irresponsible destruction machinations and elimination machinations will be around 85% of the cause.
