Beginning August 25 22:24 UT there has been a series of earthquakes occurring in the seismiclly active region, about 200km west of Vancouver Island. The largest so far has been magnitude 5.0 (August 27 at 20:17UT or 1:17pm PDT). These earthquakes are too far offshore to be felt on land and too small to generate a tsunami.

Regardless if it does or not, people should plan. I think something is getting ready to occur but maybe not there but close.
If you look at the maps and quakes the small ones are good to relieve pressure, the places to look out for is the places that have the quakes on the fault lines pressure builds look for them to happen above or below the heavy quake areas.

The quakes around Volcanoes are the opposite usually, more quakes the more danger.
That's how I was always taught.

If a quake does hit off of Vancouver Island, how far inland towards the lower mainland do you estimate the damage to reach?

There will be one. It's cyclical and marked in clay and goes back further than being colonized. This place will be hit, but the hot spot is most likely Seatlle or the underwater volcanoes surrounding Victoria island - and yes, they still erupt.

I don't know much about your topography there, but With the water ways surrounding Vancouver and around, all of it could be underwater with the swell. it's about the magnitude of a quake, direction of the push if their is one to tell the tsunami damage.
If Vancouver is low and open nothing will stop it till it hits the mountains if you get one..

I already hear voices in my head so any more would be a bonus.
