IF the pattern continues, people will need to build farther inland or take their chances with the total destruction of their property by storm surges. we have the same situation here with fault lines. Some refuse to heed the danger and build directly on top of them............the two sections of the Hayward Fault in the eastern SF Bay area comes to mind. It's a highly populated region with two segments of a faultline running through it............each of which are capable fo 7.0 and greater quakes. The SF peninsula is in the same predicament. All the homes are worth well over 500k a piece now.
