Just spoke to my wife in Apia Capital of Samoa, she and 3 kids are fine but were terrified when the house shook violently for nearly 5 mins, paintings fell from walls, louvres popped from windows, the main door that was locked popped open. Severe after shocks. Local radio reporting that water levels have dropped around the coast, indicating maybe a wave will arrive soon. Most people have left the coast and moved to higher ground

****Local radio reporting that water levels have dropped around the coast, indicating maybe a wave will arrive soon***

First, I pray for they continued safety of your family.

If I recall correctly there can be a series of waves that comprise a tsunami. I hope this was referring to the one earlier and that there are no more.
