The shaking is getting worse as hundreds of earthquakes cause alarm!

SALTON CITY, Kalifornia (PNN) - June 7, 2021 - Are we getting close to a major seismic event on the West Coast? Within the past several days we have seen hundreds of earthquakes happen in southern Kalifornia, there have been large earthquakes offshore near the Cascadia Subduction Zone, and there has been a very alarming swarm of earthquakes at Mt. Hood. We haven’t seen this much seismic activity along the West Coast in quite a long time, and many are concerned that this could be leading up to something really big.

Scientists are carefully monitoring the area around the Salton Sea. According to the United States Geological Survey, in one 24-hour period over the weekend more than 600 earthquakes of at least magnitude 1.0 shook that area of southern Kalifornia.

In fact, it was reported that it was even felt at an apartment building that was 95 miles away from the epicenter of the earthquake.

Also, there has been an alarming rise of earthquake activity on the West Coast a week ago; just over 1,000 earthquakes had occurred in Kalifornia and Nevada over the previous seven days.

Now that number is up to 1,757, and it seems to be going up with each passing hour.

Elsewhere, a pair of magnitude 5.9 earthquakes were reported off the coast of Oregon on Friday.
