Having said that, I am sorry to derail the thread and will delete my posts.

I apologise Snow Dog, I wasn't accusing you of anything and it was kind of stupid on my part to bring it up. Sorry everyone.

I am sure the warnings are only pre-cautionary. You are much closer but they are expecting tides (on top of the norm of course) of a meter in Hawaii and up to 20 inches on the US West Coast. Not drastic but amazing to see how far reaching these things can be.

the Tsunami 2004 killed people in Somalia and Yemen 100 miles away from the epicenter, so the distance a tsunami travels have not to much effect it is what the ocean is like, is it deep, or shallow water, alot of obstruensy in the water, the wave gets smaller,

So that's both Kaz and Kei okay?  That's great news.  My tsunami is due in a few hours but I doubt it will even be close to a meter thank goodness (in fact I suspect people will be at the beaches this morning waiting for it)

Yes, like when a hurricane or nor easter hits here and people go to surf the crazy waves.
One meter is not so bad but I believe the rip tide that comes with these things can be very bad.
Especially if you were in the ocean waiting for it not taking it too seriously. Hope people are smart about this!

We get a tsunami at about 6 in the morning but will perhaps be of insignificance.
 
Still on the news phone: 02070081500 hotline for those who have loved ones in Japan.... 
 
 
 
We are actually getting Japanese news pictures on BBC World News coverage.

  1. 8.9 magnitude earthquake hits the north-east of Japan triggering a tsunami that has caused extensive damage
  2. Officials fear there could be a wave as high as 10m (33ft), with numerous casualties feared
  3. A tsunami warning covers Japan, the Philippines, Hawaii, the Pacific coast of Russia, Indonesia, Taiwan, Australia, New Zealand and also Central and South America

thats all I know at this stage.

 
The movie on TV has been nuked with all this footage... The report is on 3 channels now.
