Prayers/Vibes for Japan...

[valanhb]

...and wherever else tsunamis may hit.

A huge 8.9 earthquake hit 150 km/100 mi off the coast of Japan. It was a fairly shallow quake which means a higher risk of tsunami. In fact, we actually watched live video on CNN and Fox from Japanese tv of a 10 m/32 ft tsunami sweeping across northern Japanese farmland, homes, highways, and towns. It was incredible to watch nature's fury and horrifying to watch knowing that far below the chopper footage were real people who weren't able to escape it.

Tsunami warnings have been issued for pretty much everywhere in the Pacific, incluing the Philipines, Australia, and Hawaii. Please be safe everyone who is in the path of the great waves. Godspeed.

My thoughts go out to everyone in Japan and surrounding countries if these tsunamis hit

I saw it on breakfast news this morning and now were watching it in the office. Terrible

For everyone that's affected by this, along with those poor animals

It says New Zealand too. And the west coast of US and Hawaii. I know one member lives "across from the beach". Is it catdaddy or whiskys dad?


Horrible pics on tv. Prayers for everyone in this awful thing.

My heart just sank, all the people who must of lost family members.

I saw this. What a horrible disaster. The news was saying that the tsunami waves were higher than some of the developing countries in its path.

 

[feralvr]

Just turned on the TV and saw this. How absolutely devastating. I can't even begin to imagine the terror those poor people are going through.

I was woken up a bit after 7:30AM by my mom AND my cousin in PA texting me saying 'i hope you're ok with the tsunami.' I was like What?? So I got up and saw the news about the quake. So so scary and sad and just awful!

In Long Beach, CA we just have a tsunami advisory for... about now I guess. Not supposed to be bad unless you're swimming in the ocean. I'm 5 miles away from the beach. Used to live ON the beach, but on the 10th floor.

Oh and I think it is Whisky's Dad who lives in Ventura across from the beach. They've got a higher warning than us I think. But still shouldn't be too bad.

I hope LyraJean and Aya are ok!
