Incredible pictures...yes. And definitely a warning for the west coast of the USA.

It has been predicted that the earthquake along the subduction zone off of the Oregon Coast will result in a 9.0+ magnitude earthquake (the zone extends all along the Pacific Coast from southern Alaska to San Franciso / Northern California). The resulting subsidence along the coast may be as much as 100 feet after the pressure ceases uplifting the Coastal Ranges. The resulting tsunami may be as much as 100 feet.

Here’s an article about the last time that fault generated a quake ... roughly 9 PM, 26 Jan 1700.
