Washington Earthquake Prediction 2025. New research on the cascadia subduction zone shows it has a segmented fault structure, impacting earthquake predictions and preparedness strategies, potentially affecting building codes in vulnerable areas like. For every modern building that collapses in an earthquake, about 13 will be so heavily damaged they will be unsafe to enter, and more than 50 will be partially uninhabitable,.

Geological evidence shows that the fault has loosed a magnitude 9 earthquake at least 20 times over the last ten thousand years, along with another 20 or so magnitude 7 and 8 temblors. Noteworthy changes in the new model show the possibility of more damaging earthquakes along the central and northeastern atlantic coastal corridor, including in the cities.
