Long Beach, California harbor water was receding too much for boats to dock.

What a winter this has been. I need to take a break for refreshments but that’s when the surge will happen. They don’t name tsunami’s do they? seems like they name everything else.

Almost 11:43 a.m.

Hawaii time...No tsunami in sight.

Have a feeling all the tsunami reporting was overrated and embellished....Hope I’m right.

Quote:

The death toll is slowly rising as information trickles out of Chile after a huge 8.8 magnitude earthquake struck late yesterday, flattening buildings and triggering a tsunami that is menacing the Pacific rim.

The death toll stands at 147, but seems certain to rise.

The earthquake is estimated to have unleashed 500 times the energy of the Haiti earthquake and is one of the most powerful on record.

Wow, but the Haiti EQ was much shallower. I saw this morning that the Chile quake was 22KM.

Science channel cuz he's not on Discovery. He's on Fox a lot. I wish Fox would give him a weekend show so they wouldn't have to repeat O'Reilly or Beck ad nauseum.

Kaku's on the radio tonight at 7 pm. ck your local listings.

Yes....I have a feeling there is no Hawaiian tsunami coming. Other than a very mild minor water surge, we’re not going to see anything. Hopefully.

LOL CNN just said some idiots are standing right on the beach on Oahu waiting for the waves. The cops chased them off but they came right back.

Fools and their lives are soon parted.

I lived in Long Beach a long time ago in a little cement house. We had those metal lawn chairs that burnt your seat when you sat down.
