New research indicates that stress levels along Southern California’s San Andreas and San Jacinto fault systems have reached their highest point in the past 1,000 years. Although an immediate rupture is not imminent, the region is in a critically loaded state, with accumulated stress capable of supporting large, multi-fault earthquakes near major cities. A rupture involving both faults could cause significant damage, especially given the area's long seismic cycle and proximity to densely populated areas.
