Summary
Scientists reveal California’s fault lines—San Andreas and San Jacinto—are under unprecedented tectonic stress, nearing a “critically loaded state” after a century of buildup. Computer models show stress levels at historic highs, with Cajon Pass acting as a potential “earthquake gate” that could either contain or unleash a massive rupture across both faults. While no exact date is given, the findings underscore urgent preparedness, especially after the devastating 1994 Northridge quake.
