Universal Coordinated Time UTC – ZULU is a 24 hour clock . There are extremes in preparedness, of course. As a basis of my work I use the 2015 Profile of Earthquake Risk in the District of North Vancouver by Earthquake Canada, wherein they state that there is 30% chance of a M7.3 in the middle of the Salish Sea in the next 50 years, that will bring down 839 buildings, just in the District of North Vancouver.

If you are not mentally and physically in good shape, not frightened to do all of this on your own, not fully equipped and practiced in outdoor survival skills, then don't even try to do most any of this. If a really BIG earthquake hits expect to live by yourself, outside, for a long, long time.

Stan G Webb In Retirement Introduction

Stan G Webb In Retirement© Introduction
In my formative years (one year and seven months, to nearly seven), I lived in and grew up in Minto (Gold) Mining Country. Yes! There is still gold in those hills. Frenchie, a narly old prospector took me under his wing and taught me where to find gold. And, how to extract it. He was the first to put a bead of mercury in my the palm of my right hand and watch carefully as I played with it. I was three years old. Later that winter he put the pointy end of a shotgun under his chin, Although I am now mainly retired, I still maintain my BC Free Miner Certificate, I will always be licenced and I will always miss my friend, Frenchie.
My most memorable things from that time were on June 23, 1946, at 10:15 a.m. when a magnitude estimated at 7.0 Ms and 7.5 Mw earthquake struck. The main shock epicenter occurred in the Forbidden Plateau area northwest of Courtenay. It almost knocked me down. It shook my bones. I was 23 month old.
My second earthquake was Canada's biggest in recorded history.
Haida Gwaii (Queen Charlotte Islands) earthquake struck the sparsely populated Queen Charlotte Islands and the Pacific Northwest coast at 8:01 p.m. PDT on August 21, 1949. The shock had a surface wave magnitude of 8.1 and a maximum Mercalli Intensity of VIII (Severe). I had just turn five years old and that one shook my being, to the depth of my soul.

 There were bigger ones, of course. The Cascadia earthquake occurred along the Cascadia subduction zone on January 26, 1700 with an estimated moment magnitude of 8.7–9.2. The megathrust 'subduction zone' earthquakes involved the Juan de Fuca Plate from mid-Vancouver Island, south along the Pacific Northwest coast as far as northern California.

Most everyone knows that I think that the way everyone is looking at Cascadia is all upside down and backwards. Everybody.
