On the radio KFI LA..
I live in NE Texas and the 1812 NM quake cause a rise in a fault on the TX LA border which stopped the flow of the Cypress river and formed Caddo Lake. Up until that time river boats use the river to carry goods and people into TX. It left Jefferson Tx which was a river boat commerce city without the ability to navigate the river. Now it’s a small tourist city complete with stone river boat docks.
No..that’s why I asked the question..Freepers know everything..
Does anyone know if Hilo TV stations have any helicopters? I assume Honolulu has traffic helos and whatnot. I’m wondering if there will be any live overhead shots of the tsunami arrival.
Foxnews Cable Channel has been showing the damage from Conception...Major bridges down...etc...very extensive...Apartment buildings leaning ,...cracks in the earth....cars overturned.
ROFL!
lol- that’s why I replied to you - and pinged Stratergerist in case he knew the answer. I should have been clearer.
“MSNBC is showing a video taken during the actual earthquake, which lasted about 2 minutes per some reports.”
Looked for a link but couldn’t find one yet.
I’ve been watching!!! Lots of damage!
On a non related note, rain has stopped here in Eagle Rock.
“Does anyone know if Hilo TV stations have any helicopters?”
I assume so. They certainly have sightseeing tours to watch lava flows.
Just read on another thread that waves lengths at some buoys are being measured at 88 minutes long. Not sure what that means overall- I would imagine it builds up and dissipates as it passes over various underwater geography.
FOX just showed some surveillance camera video, what looked like a parking area security gate, both up & down shaking and twisting ... very violent
I would doubt a tsunami would wash that pile of rock away....
I checked MSNBC but didn’t see it posted yet.
I suspect Chile is merely suffering the pollutions of sin generically like the rest of the world, in this case.
God only knows.
Certainly there was a lot of horrible stuff there from the Commie leadership and the globalists are none too wonderful.
They’ve made a lot of progress for their people in recent years . . .
Their geology is a LOT more hazardous than say central Australia’s is.
Thanks for your kind errrr for your quick reply.
Good link.
