# California Earthquake Activity Raises Alarm:
In the last 24 hours, California has recorded three minor earthquakes, raising concerns about a potential major quake along the San Andreas Fault, which is overdue for a significant event. The US Geological Survey (USGS) detected tremors ranging from magnitudes 2.5 to 2.9, with no reported injuries or damages. Experts warn that a major earthquake could result in substantial casualties and economic losses, estimating around 1,800 deaths and $200 billion in damages.
Historical data indicates that major quakes occur approximately every 150 years on this fault, with the last significant events occurring in 1857 and 1906. Additionally, scientists are monitoring the Cascadia Subduction Zone, which may also produce a powerful earthquake, with potentially devastating impacts on coastal regions.
