Thank you.

Is it just me but it seems that the graph got weird about 07:00 and stayed that way till the big quake?

Hi, Calpernia. Wow is right. TV isn't making much of this. That's pretty strong but they did say no tsunami risk.

Here's the latest IRIS Seismic map:

A Tsunami warning has been issued all along the California coast all the way down to San Diego.

How long until the coast is clear?

HA! That's the first time that phrase ever made literal sense!

[Dont Mention the War]

I found out because I'm on a breaking news mailing list which told me there was a tsunami alert issued.

Run by the MSM or normal people? (I'm always looking for breaking news lists.)

[dangerfield]

what's going on? the three news networks aren't mentioning this at all, not even Headline News (they're still leading with the helicopter crash in the east river).

[rintense]

Wow, I'm headed for Seattle at the end of August... I'm a bit nervous.

[silentknight]

I think it is wild that the news media isn't saying much.

CNN has it on now though.

[silentknight]

ABC Radio now reporting the T- Warning.

It sounds like a false alarm...

[lainie]

Thanks, very good sir!

I called a friend that lives in the Castro district. She did not feel it--SFGate didn't post it for at least 20 minutes after, so she didn't believe me for a little while.

>>>TV isn't making much of this. That's pretty strong but they did say no tsunami risk.

Yes there is. Here is the Tsunami warning thread. The mod locked it to keep all the posts centralized.

i'm surprised we didn't feel it here near Stockton... calling the folks in Santa Cruz to make sure they know...
