Original Note:
M6.4 was not on the subduction zone; it was a shallow strike-slip event. Claims that Cascadia is "locked" or "loosening" are not supported by geophysical evidence. https://earthquake.usgs.gov/earthquakes/eventpage/nc73821036/executive https://www.usgs.gov/programs/earthquake-hazards/faqs-category https://earthquakescanada.nrcan.gc.ca/zones/cascadia/qa-en.php
