Get off the beach! Tsunami coming!
« on: March 11, 2011, 11:17:48 AM »
Do you live near the Pacific Ocean?

Then Grab your Amigas, get in the car and go inland now!

If your are in USA, it won't hit for several more hours but you need to beat the traffic jams!

I hope you make it.

Pretty scary in Japan. Tsunami moved up rivers inland. some pretty scary video of cars trying to out run the wall of rubbish.
Aus and northern NZ sound safe.
The Philippines, Indonesia, Papua New Guinea, Hawaii good luck..

Hmmm... no Tsunami here (not even a NatAmi) but it has been snowing again for the the past two days, what's with all this Global Warming stuff anyway it's ruddy Freezing here and we aint had a summer for the past four years... :(

Reckon they should have called it Global Brass Monkeys to be honest... :)

Just off to sit in the fridge for a wee while and warm up a wee bit... :)

Whatever. In the meantime i'm preparing for it to arrive. They said it should be here in about 6 hours time. This going to be so cool.

Sorry to hear about that earth quake. I am myself always lucky to live in a region with least risk of such catastrophys. Those who are coast near in the pacific area take care. And let's all hope that the Japanese culear power plants will stay safe.

I didn't say I had it switched on (think I'm made of money), it's just warmer in there as it's a confined space and you get a good sleep when the air runs out... :)

They've been evacuating the coast for the last couple of hours.  We'll see soon enough :(

We're up over 200' looking at the beach here in Lincoln City, Oregon.
We've seen some higher and lower tides than we should be seeing normally.
We've seen some good sized waves, but luckily, that's about it so far.
The Tsunami Warning will last several more hours..

We also have seen people ON THE BEACH...  8-O

No Darwin Awards this time tho..  
** Almost a Darwin Award..  Couple in Southern Oregon walking on the beach was caught by a wave and washed out to sea a bit ago.  They were rescued...  **
