(BBC News) March 28, 2025: A huge 7.7 magnitude earthquake has hit central Burma (Myanmar) with aftershocks, tremors, and damage felt in Thailand and south-west China. The epicenter was located 10 miles (16 km) north-west of the city of Sagaing, Burma, at a depth of 10 km, the United States Geological Survey (USGS) says. Videos show cracks in roads in Burma's new capital Naypyidaw (moved by the totalitarian government from Rangoon/Yangon) and people evacuating into the street in Thailand’s capital Bangkok.

What is to happen to California?
What does this seismic activity portend for San Andreas Fault California becoming an island?
.
What has happened today suggests what California is facing because of its massive San Andreas Fault. Experts warn that the most populated state in the USA is facing similar danger to today's catastrophe. Caltech Lucy is bound to be interviewed. California, most of which is still in Mexico (Baja and Sur), used to be an island (presumably not only because of a myth and misestimation but because of higher sea levels in the past).

The Island of California? History of Lake Cocoran ruined by climate change and agriculture
Then in 2023, with less drought, Lake Tulare returned

Water went up from the Gulf of California (near San Felipe, Mexico) and around to the Salton Sea, to surround part of Alta California, annexed by the USA for its empire, and link up with the ancient Lake Corcoran (to say nothing of Tulare Lake and Lake Manly) that once occupied most of the state until it was drained.
