Facts About Earthquake Damage
One of the scariest things about earthquakes is how unpredictable they can be. You never know when they will strike, how strong they will be, and how long they will last. This mystery is what makes them more unsettling than other natural disasters.
Some important earthquake damage facts to remember:
- You should expect smaller quakes to follow the initial jolt.
- Earthquakes are caused by the shifting and breaking of rocks under the earth’s surface. This shaking can knock down buildings and bridges, disrupt gas and electricity, and occasionally trigger floods, fires, and even avalanches.
- The majority of earthquake-related injuries are caused by falling objects, flying glass, or collapsing walls.
- California is home to the most frequent and destructive earthquakes, however, Alaska has experienced most of the larger earthquakes.
- Though earthquakes will most frequently strike west of the Rocky Mountains, violent earthquakes can also occur in the middle of the country.
