We been getting some earthquakes for the past couple of days, early this morning we were awoken just past midnight with a 4.2, during the day yesterday we had a couple of trimmers, possibly related to the volcanoes here. North of us near Yakima Washington a large crack was discovered on the side of Rattlesnake Ridge near Union Gap Washington (not related to the EQ swarms we are having here) threatening small communities and interstate 82 potentially blocking the Yakima River a tributary of the Columbia River. Geologist are on site monitoring.

Do they know how much bigger this would have to get before it would be a real problem?
