BREAKING NEWS!!!!! HURRICANES CAN PRODUCE DAMAGING EFFECTS EVEN IF THEY DON’T COME ASHORE!

This is what happens when the dire predictions of catostrophic climate change and predicted severe whether do not come to fruition and give these guys the attention they need.

From here in the Midwest, it seems like the last couple of hurricane seasons have been unusually mild. It must be Man Made Global Warming that is causing it.

HA! I laugh in the face of tsunamis, I dare it to come and get me here in central Illinois.

Tornadoes however, are a different story. I hide and cry like a little baby at tornadoes.

7.9 magnitude quake sparks tsunami warning for New Zealand - Reuters

Snip - A tsunami watch was in effect for Hawaii, Papua New Guinea and other small Pacific islands.

[The Pacific Tsunami Warning Center] noted that its warning did not mean a tsunami had necessarily been generated by the quake. The warning was issued because a quake of this magnitude had the power to generate a destructive tsunami, it said. - snip.

American Samoa got hit first, water came about 100 feet inland before receding. The fact it was so close to the quake may mean the waves did not have time to build. Remember Thailand/Indonesia Christmas eve quake. It killed people on the east coast of Africa after crossing the entire Indian Ocean. Also the direction of the most severe waves is difficult to figure right away. Heads up Hawaii, Australia, NZ

Can a quake produce more than one Tsunami, or was this it?
