That piece is so so bad. There were several “wow that’s ridiculous” rebuttals after it was published. Some about how Seattle is really far away from the coast (and therefore would see far less shaking than implied), some about how tsunamis will dissipate in the Sound, some about how we’ve been building everything to survive this for decades.
My ex-partner’s a geologist. She hated that article.
Not sure how convincing I find assurances that an ex-girlfriend of yours and some other, unnamed people disagreed with it. Either way, it’s a seismically active area, there are volcanoes, there are landslides, and the PNW has not been untouched by wildfires.
