Why The Earthquake Near San Francisco Is Just The Start Of The Shaking In California*
HaShem will roar from Zion!
The Heavens and earth with shake.
Yeshayahu 13:13
Therefore I will shake the heavens, and the earth shall remove out of her place, in the wrath of the LORD of hosts, and in the day of his fierce anger.

Early on Sunday, a 6.1 magnitude earthquake struck the heart of wine country. It was the largest earthquake to hit northern California in 25 years. More than 120 people were injured, scores of buildings were damaged and Governor Jerry Brown declared a state of emergency."
"It is being projected that the economic loss from this earthquake will exceed a billion dollars. Since the initial quake, there have been more than 60 aftershocks, and residents are very much hoping that the worst is over. The following is how the damage caused by the earthquake was described by CNN:"
"Everything and everyone in Napa was affected by the quake. My house, along with everybody else's, is a disaster. It looks like somebody broke in and ravaged the place, room by room."
. . ."Anything and everything that could fall, did,"
"… this was only a 6.1 magnitude earthquake … a 7.0 magnitude earthquake would be many times more powerful…"
"If a 9.0 earthquake were to strike along California’s sparsely populated North Coast, it would have a catastrophic ripple effect.
"A giant tsunami created by the quake would wash away coastal towns, destroy U.S. 101 and cause $70 billion in damage over a large swath of the Pacific coast. More than 100 bridges would be lost, power lines toppled and coastal towns isolated. Residents would have as few as 15 minutes notice to flee to higher ground, and as many as 10,000 would perish."
"Something is happening that scientists don't understand, and that is a little scary . . . earthquake activity seems to particularly be increasing in the United States. While the west has been relatively quiet, the number of earthquakes in the central and eastern portions of the nation has quintupled over the past 30 years…"
RESIDENTS ALONG AMERICA'S PACIFIC COAST WOULD HAVE AS FEW AS 15 MINUTES TO FLEE
ISRAELIS IN JERUSALEM HAVE 1.5 MINUTES TO GET TO SHELTER FROM HAMAS ROCKETS
MOTHERS AND CHILDREN LIVING IN THE SOUTH OF ISRAEL HAVE
MUCH LESS THAN ONE MINUTE
