I’m good, thank you. Glad you are OK. The pictures from Japan are simply heart breaking.

Miyagi prefecture nuclear plant fire update: Smoke seen at building separate from reactor; no reports of radioactive leaks, injuries - AP
Sorry... I should have mentioned that the oil refinery is in Ichihara, Chiba
Are you all right?
Should have already been shut down and secured. Hopefully that’s part of the major power outages. It’s now night there.
I can only somewhat imagine what that’s like having been through a major hurricane at night.
Ok, now I just heard they had 1 to 2 hours’ warning before the wave hit Japan. MAYBE a lot of those folks were able to escape. I sure hope that’s the case!
Let’s hope this report is correct! Japan already has enough trouble to deal with without radiation leaks on top of everything.
I don’t know about all of Japan, but part of Japan had less than 15 minutes ...
Guam is still waiting, the seismic sea wave seems to be behind schedule. Watch for reports from Wake and Midway. Got anything on the Philippines?
Did you see the boats hitting and being swept under the bridge just now? I kept seeing a massive whirlpool mentioned in earlier posts. Here’s the link;

Ok, that goes back to what I initially heard. I heard that on CNN. Someone on Fox said they had 1 to 2 hours’ warning.
I don’t know what area that town was in that was wiped out. Let’s hope they were in an area that had a little more warning.
I saw the boats getting swept under the bridge in real time. I’ve been watching this horror since the beginning.
What in the world caused that weird whirlpool? It didn’t look like the water was being sucked down or anything. Just swirling around. The strangest thing I’ve seen.
I am watching it as well. The tsunami waves look like lava just destroing everything.
