Note the NOAA graphic below. If there’s an earthquake north of Puerto Rico, in the Puerto Rico Trench, which is the deepest depression in the Atlantic Ocean at almost 29,000+ feet below sea level, the massive undersea mountain range (purple color) will slide down and cause a massive tsunami in Puerto Rico and the Caribbean islands. On the southern part of Puerto Rico is the Muertos Trough, which is part of the Caribbean Sea tectonic plate, and this plate would also shift, as the North American Plate rubs with the Caribbean Plate.

Puerto Rico will suffer catastrophic loss of human lives and land area. Unbelievable...

Thanks, I didn’t know that about PR. That’s a deep trench.
