yeah. this place manufactures earthquakes all the time. back in 2010, there was a large earthquake that killed more than 550 people. and it s because of the nature of the subduction zone. it s just the way that nature works. the pacific plates are always moving. and where there s a junction between the pacific plate and land, eventually the pressure builds up and breaks. and so it s a recurring cycle. the same thing happens off of the washington-oregon coast. frank gonzales or noaa, thanks for joining us. now on the phone lucy jones of the u.s. geological survey. lucy, reuters is saying early reports of landslides partially blocking some roads. is that what we can expect from an 8.2 earthquake? they misspelled my name and didn t get the right i think we lost lucy.
