It was Grenada that had 90% of its houses damaged, Jamaica hasn't been hit yet. But by the time Ivan is through with the island, the number of damaged houses could very well be 90% or higher.

I stand corrected. It's Grenada, not Jamaica. Thanks for the correction guys.
To: cajungirl
I have friends that live there. Prayers going up.

Given that it occured beneath the waters of the Carribean, has anyone mentioned a tsunami risk for the region?
Talk about a double whammy. BTW, the earlier poster who mentioned 90% destruction -- that was in Granada, not Jamaica. Ivan is still a day or so away from Jamaica.

Earthquakes in the oceans are often accompanied by tidal waves. What next?
To: Tuxedo
This earthquake was more than 100 miles from the Caymens. They might not have even felt it.

How big an earthquake do you need to get a massive tidal wave?

Better add Citrus and Pecans to your shorting strategy. They have been almost completely decimated here in Florida.
