Heavy winter storms sweep through Seattle which can cause bad traffic accidents sometimes resulting in death. Also it is not uncommon for residents to occasionally get snowed in. A 2001 Nisqually Earthquake caused millions in damages. In 1700 the Cascadia earthquake which tallied at 7.1, had Seattle(not formed yet) in its grid. It caused a tsunami that hit Japan(not the current one). Seattle lays in proclaimed, "earth quake country"
