It appears at the moment a tsunami has been generated but its not known yet if it's local or Pacific-wide. Latest magnitude is 8.6 which is massive.

Take care Kat and all you coastal people!
Took my car into town and got gas just in case because it was on fumes.
Saying prayers for the people near the epicenter. 6.9 aftershocks and a definite tsunami generated.
On another note, just heard CNN newsguy say the dumbest remark:
quote:I couldn't believe he said that.
Still a lot of dark there, not much daylight right now, and there won't be until morning comes.
