San Andreas and San Jacinto faults reach extreme stress as California’s ‘earthquake gate’ hits a 1,000-year high point

Recent research indicates elevated stress levels at Cajon Pass, affecting interactions between the San Andreas and San Jacinto faults. The stress is reportedly at its highest point in the last 1,000 years of observations. While this research does not predict a specific earthquake, it sheds light on how future ruptures…
