alerts. but thanks to a $10 million dollar funding boost from the state of california, shake alert is expanding. earlier this month, both oregon and washington states were added to the project.sot if all goes well, the public could start receiving earthquake alerts as early as next year albeit in a limited capacity.sotin the meantime, experts are reminding people to always be prepared for earthquakes. sot
