California had damage from this tsunami, especially along the north coast. Everyone can take actions to be prepared (& practice what to do if along the shore) by participating in California's Tsunami Preparedness Week (March 21-29)- visit tsunamizone.org/california to learn more.

Today marks the 32nd anniversary of the 1994 Northridge earthquake. The M6.7 quake beneath the San Fernando Valley became the costliest U.S. natural disaster until Hurricane Katrina (2005). Learn more: EarthquakeCountry.org/northridge/fac…
