just kidding. at least i hope so. There was a major earthquake in japan a few hours ago and there has been a Tsunami report generated as per: here
Tsunamis start off as small ocean waves that are created when a under-ocean earthquake occurs. Typically untill they hit landfall, they are about 6 or so inches high. hardly detectable. Tsunamis only become "super gigantic waves" when they hit the ideal shorelines, then then raise up many many feet into the air and can cause massive destruction. Tsunamis travel at or around 500 miles per hour. (that is not a typo, i said 500 mph). here is a transcript from that website: 1 TO ALL TSUNAMI WARNING SYSTEM PARTICIPANTS SUBJECT: TSUNAMI WARNING BULLETIN - SUPPLEMENT BULLETIN NUMBER 2 WEST COAST AND ALASKA TSUNAMI WARNING CENTER/NOAA/NWS ISSUED 09/25/2003 AT 2116 UTC ...A TSUNAMI WARNING IS IN EFFECT FOR THE COASTAL AREAS FROM NIKOLSKI, AK.

BULLETINS WILL BE ISSUED HOURLY OR SOONER IF CONDITIONS WARRANT. THE TSUNAMI WATCH/WARNING WILL REMAIN IN EFFECT UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE. REFER TO THE INTERNET SITE HTTP://WCATWC.ARH.NOAA.GOV FOR MORE INFORMATION AND ETA SITES. and to be quite honest, i highly doubt there will be a tsunami. These types of things RARELY happen. If anything, there MIGHT be a SMALL wave 4-6 feet that will hit remote parts of Alaska, but nothing further down south.... But as a future attorney, i would advise all of you to skin your cats alive, and rob a bunch of people jsut in case...  j/k am i good with useless trivia knowledge or what? i challenge ANYONE on here to a game of trivial pursuit.... |

The person who posted obviously did not take a second to read the link, because the very link he posted to affirmate his claim proves him wrong.
Did anyone even read the most critical part, the evaluation? "EVALUATION: NO TSUNAMI DANGER EXISTS FOR ALASKA, BRITISH COLUMBIA, WASHINGTON, OREGON, OR CALIFORNIA." |
