It’s always good fun when FReeper FReiends can get together...even if it did start out to be quite a serious discussion!

Nighty-night!

Japan still under severe alert but people are watching closely and breathing a little easier, yet serious dangers remain.

Weare at sea level in Tokyo area but far from where some tsunami waves would come and do damage or take lives. We (Japanese east coast) started getting hit a few hours ago. In Hokkaido they had waves that were nearly 10 feet tall. All I hear overhead is Japan Air Self Defense and Coastal Patrol helicopters. I am not getting any reports of deaths, but now doubt some damage has come to Japan.

Map of just a few minutes ago:

Red= waves over NINE FEET IN HEIGTH....dark yellow = waves up to 6 feet or so. Most of the shore area is not in the 9 feet zone, but areas of Tohoku are under watch and Japanese TV has been nonstop with reports on every channnel, people fleeing safely to high areas, in a wonderful, calm public security evacuation process on a national level. Very proud of how Japan is handling this crisis as I speak. (1:20 a.m. Sunday Eastern)

AiT-Japan

It may be "wow, we dodged that bullet, time for a beer" for some people, but in this country the threat is not over yet. Also, I pray for the poor people in Chile. What a disaster.
