SNIPPET: “Hamburg/Tegucigalpa - A strong quake measuring at least 7.1 points struck offshore from the Central American country of Honduras early Thursday. US seismology officials put the strength of the quake at 7.1 points, but the Pacific Tsunami Warning Centre said it measured 7.3 points.”
SNIPPET: “The 30-second quake was caused by a collision between the Caribbean and North American plates, said seismography expert Gonzalo Carias from the Honduras National Autonomous University.
US seisomology officials said the quake struck at a depth of 10 kilometres and some 320 kilometres north-east of the capital Tegucigalpa.
The quake occurred at a distance of 63 kilometres from the touristic Roatan Islands, according to reports in Spain.”

It’s been a couple of hours. We should have seen by now, I think.

We have friends who live in Honduras. I had an email from them early this AM. They said they all ran out of their home because it was so intense, and they are far away from where that earthquake hit, way up in the mountains. They’re due to travel to the one of othe major cities today, with no way to check on the roads before they go, so they might have to end up just turning around and coming home.

I have friends from there as well. Haven’t been able to communicate with them for a long time so I have no way to check.
God be with them. AT least the wife knows The Lord.
