Lane County faces billions in damage from a Cascadia earthquake

Being earthquake-ready goes beyond having a few bottles of water and a battery-powered flashlight on hand. Local seismologists say there is a one-in-three chance a magnitude 8.0 or higher Cascadia earthquake will occur in the next 50 years. There is a one-in-10 chance of a magnitude 9.0 or higher earthquake. The Eugene Water & Electric Board , in collaboration with the Eugene Family YMCA and University of Oregon , are promoting emergency readiness, giving presentations and answering questions about what Eugene residents need to know and what they can do now to prepare for an earthquake that could heavily impact the Pacific Northwest's infrastructure. Valerie Sahakian , UO associate professor of earth sciences and lead investigator for Cascadia Region Earthquake Science Center (CRESCENT) , said planning now is essential . "When things are really big and scary, reinforcing what you can do helps," Sahakian said. What is the Cascadia subduction zone and how do we know it's active? The Cascadia subduction zone , spanning about 600 miles between Northern California and British Columbia, lies about 100 miles west of the Oregon coast. Here, two offshore tectonic plates meet, one sliding underneath the other and building up pressure over time. Scientists

Near record warmth midweek

Well... that’s not what we forecast. It ended up being a soaking wet morning with PDX picking up about 0.60″ of rain. Troutdale has picked up more than inch!. So, what happened? Models last night were indicating the bulk of the atmospheric river would be pointed farther north, with Portland maybe just getting clipped with a shower or two. If you notice the rain totals in Salem- that’s closer to what we were expecting in Portland. Instead, the entire atmospheric river shifted south and blasted the Rose City with steady rain.
