Tokyo just got smacked hard. Still feeling tremors. Refrigerator broken, glass everywhere. I'm safe.
Other Japan FReepers check in!!
I’m a newbie to all this info, and I’m amazed by it! It really is fascinating. There are so many small quakes going on continuously in Arkansas, and it makes me wonder if something major is going to happen there. I also read about a prophecy that David Wilkerson gave back in the 1970’s in “The Vision” that talks about an earthquake in Japan that precedes a very large earthquake in America.
I suppose that works if you aren't depending on the timer to wake you up in time to get to safety. One power failure and the plan fails.
What’s your elevation—not counting highrise buildings?
Are you smack in the thick of the city or the edges?
There is a bigger one coming. I don’t know when.
Tokyo will be unlivable.
Re-reading my post, I sounded almost gleeful, so I thought I’d better clarify...I am awed by what I’m seeing, but not in a good way. It’s time to be praying and watchful...and time to make sure our hearts (and those of our family and friends) are ready to meet our Lord and Saviour...It breaks my heart to see what I saw this morning - all those homes and cars swept away with little notice.
>>>We may have had the first fatalities in Crescent City, northern Ca, FOX says 4 people swept out to sea.
Sight seers?
Darin award candidates... does not take a rocket scientist to stay way from an area when there are tsunami alerts out.
At the very end of this short (1:44) video he says
“We are going to bust at the seams, New Madrid”
INCOMING AND MAGNETOSPHERE BOWSHOCK.

You’re correct there, but since we’re up quite high I didn’t have to worry about getting to safety.
60? SIXTY MILES? I can't imagine that's possible...even 6 miles would be hard to grasp.
I don't know if it was a typo on whatever he was reading from or if he just spoke incorrectly due to all the hubub. I kept waiting for him to correct himself.
60 Kilometers would make more sense.
We saw that last night...It had us in tears we were all laughing so hard...
I can imagine the death toll in the thousands, if not tens of thousands.
Watching that tsunami roll in and seeing those cars trying to outrun it and knowing that as those houses were being washed away, that people were dying as we watched is staggering.
It’s just beyond comprehension.
There was one shot of the wave moving forward and it flowed back into what looked like the ocean. I remember gasping and thinking, "OMG! It went all the way across the island!"
Maybe they were correct after all. I don't know what the terrain is like in that area.
Beware the Ides of March, eh?
