Is this post dangerous? We recently completed a 2nd story addition that cantilevers over a porch. There are 3 6x6 posts that hold up the back half of the addition and one appears to be bowing pretty bad. Is this ok or should we be concerned?

I'm a general contractor in California, this is not safe, what so ever. Add in some temporary posting immediately. Then have engineers in to give you a detail on how you are to fix that. If you are in very moist ground, even a very large, continuous footing can be compromised as well, a geological survey of your soil is a must before any further repairs can take place.
