Hurricanes = Earthquakes / Another Atlantis Candidate

Very wet rain events are the trigger. The heavy rain induces thousands of landslides and severe erosion, which removes ground material from the Earth’s surface, releasing the stress load and encouraging movement along faults.
…found a strong temporal relationship between the two natural hazards, where large earthquakes occurred within four years after a very wet tropical cyclone season.

The two countries that were used to demonstrate the connection are Taiwan and Haiti – avoid these places after a very wet cyclone season…

Two sunken islands almost the size of Tasmania have been discovered in the Indian Ocean west of the Australian city of Perth.
…the two islands that now are covered by about a mile (1.5 kilometers) of ocean water.
“The sunken islands charted during the expedition have flat tops, which indicates they were once at sea level before being gradually submerged,” Whittaker said in a statement. The rocks retrieved from the islands also surprisingly suggested the islands weren’t always underwater.

Tasmania is 364 kilometres (226 mi) long from north to  south, and 306 kilometres (190 mi) from west to east. By comparison, Plato said that Atlantis extends:

“in one direction three thousand stadia [about 555 km; 345 mi], but across the center inland it was two thousand stadia [about 370 km; 230 mi].”
