I hope, at a minimum, this was nowhere near land -- nm - ty97 Jan 28, 11:46 2
- Off in the water. USGS says low expectation of fatalities and economic losses, so hopefully it is all minor. -- nm - Beryllium Jan 28, 11:47 1
  - Tsunami indicators are very small for this one -- (link) - Beryllium Jan 28, 12:26
Are all of STers... off of boats now? -- nm - Spawn Jan 28, 11:43 5
- My first thought was them, but I think they all disembarked 2 nights ago. -- nm - Will Hunting Jan 28, 11:45 4
  - Safest place to be is on a boat in the middle, then all you get is a wave of a foot that lifts the boat for a longer spell than normal -- nm - zeitgeist Jan 28, 11:51 3
    - Middle, sure. Near port though? -- nm - Spawn Jan 28, 11:59 2
      - They showed some of the buildings in Japan designed to withstand against the tsunami, they did a good job too, until the freighter slammed into them.. -- nm - zeitgeist Jan 28, 14:34
      - as long as you don't get sucked into a current ... -- nm - Beryllium Jan 28, 12:00
Possibly upgraded to M7.7 -- nm - Beryllium Jan 28, 11:41 4
- buildings in Miami evacuated due to shaking.... -- (link) - Remlik Jan 28, 12:22 2
  - more... -- (link) - Remlik Jan 28, 12:23 1
    - that's terrifying -- nm - decline Jan 28, 12:26
- wow -- nm - Andie Jan 28, 11:41
Upgraded to 7.7 already -- nm - Will Hunting Jan 28, 11:41
In the ocean between Cuba, Jamaica and the Caymen Islands -- (link) - decline Jan 28, 11:38 6
- Oh no! Not the Caymans! -- nm - Rich People Everywhere Jan 28, 13:21
- so obviously puerto rico is going to take another major hit -- nm - Beryllium Jan 28, 11:40 4
  - Cuba is in the way, but Haiti could get smacked by the tsunami if there is one. -- nm - Will Hunting Jan 28, 11:41 3
    - That's where we were Friday night/Saturday morning. But on the western side of the islands. -- nm - Meg Jan 28, 11:59 1
      - Which is exactly where it was :/ Must have sailed right over that fault. -- nm - Meg Jan 28, 12:01
    - Fair, fair. I was just joking about their run of bad luck lately. -- nm - Beryllium Jan 28, 11:46
