| subject: | Major Earthquake Hits Chile 02 |
Well, I just opened my local news email, and they are saying that if we are hit by any sort of tsunami, it will be shortly after 1:00 PM this afternoon, which is about five hours from now. For you folks who are living in the continental USA, that would be at about: EST - 10:00 PM Saturday CST - 9:00 PM Saturday RMT - 8:00 PM Saturday PST - 7:00 PM Saturday Here is the article from our local newspaper: Tsunami alert for Pacific region issued Pacific Daily News February 28, 2010 A tsunami warning is in effect for Guam and the entire Pacific region after an 8.8-magnitude earthquake struck near the coast of central Chile yesterday. The Pacific Tsunami Warning Center estimates that if a tsunami is generated, the arrival time for Guam would be 1:11 p.m. today. The warning was issued at 8:45 p.m. yesterday, and as of 10 p.m., Guam Homeland Security confirmed it has assigned personnel to monitor the warning. "We wait for two hours after the threshold to be in the clear," said Lesley Leon Guerrero, the spokeswoman for Homeland Security. "Guam Homeland Security and the Office of Civil Defense has been in contact with all stakeholders and will continue to monitor the situation and provide additional instructions as necessary." --------------- You don't need to worry about us, though, as we are a few hundred feet above sea level, and we don't live on the coast. The folks living on the southeast end of our island would probably be affected the most; that is, if a tsunami even arrives here. Who knows. I am not a meteorologist, or an oceanographer. If Hawaii is expecting waves about eight feet above normal, perhaps we will experience something similar here. We will know soon enough.
