The predictions by the Pacific Tsunami Warning Center of a Pacific wide Tsunami of several feet reaching coastal areas of of all nations on the pacific Ocean after the 8.8 magnitude quake in Chile proved to be highly inaccurate as only waves a few inches above normal reached these nations.

Tsunamis are exceedingly hard to predict.

Warnings after a colossal 8.8 eatrhquake under the ocean are legitimate.

Here’s where it may be OK to over promise and under deliver.

Except that, as another Freeper pointed out (I forget who) that when Easter Island only gets a negligable wave, it is completely irresponsible to panic the entire pacific Basin with warning about "fingers" of high waves radiating outward, since no such "fingers" have ever been observed nor reported, and wave energy decreases with distance.

I think it's a case were prudence is justified. The expense and inconvenience of an unnecessary evacuation once every 10 years or so are small compared to the cost of having tens, or hundreds of thousands or more drowned.

Here in Oklahoma we run for cover when the tornado sirens go off. And when we don’t get hit by a tornado we don’t complain, we just consider ourselves fortunate. But then that’s just us here in flyover country.
