Mega-tsunami threat looms: 3 US states face high risk from Cascadia quake
A newly released scientific study has raised urgent concerns about the potential for a catastrophic mega-tsunami to strike parts of the United States within the next 50 years. The threat centers on the Cascadia Subduction Zone, a massive fault line extending approximately 600 miles from Northern California to the coastal regions of British Columbia. This fault system poses a serious danger due to its capacity to generate powerful earthquakes that could trigger massive tsunamis. Re
