SEATTLE, Wash. — The entire West Coast now has access to ShakeAlert, an earthquake early warning system that allows messages to be sent to mobile phones once there’s a tremor.
The system debuted in Washington state Tuesday after it was introduced in Oregon in March and made available in California in 2019. The three states represent the most earthquake-prone region in the continental U.S.
